Hey guys, hoping no one would be interested in my car therefore me not bothering to sell it.

I've taken a leaf from Troy's book and realised how much $$$ maintaing our pride and joys involve. As most of u know the car hobby sucks u dry - not in a good way either.

Just about to get married, buy a house, support a child etc. I've tried justifying that we could sleep in the stagea... No go.

If it does go, hopefully it's to someone interstate or someone north side.. I couldn't stand to see it driven by someone else. :(

Details:

1999 series 2 Stagea RS4-S (therefore manual)

78,xxx kms

Rego til 04/13

My baaahhhdyy:

Ganador side mirrors

Dolphin eyelids

Dolphin sideskirts

Takero front bar

Not too sure what rear wing is

Original stagea boot may (ooohh ahh)

Parcel cover thingy <-- someone tell me

Under the bonnet:

RB25DET Neo

NGK Iridium sparks

Spitfire Coils

Airynx pod filter

Cooling Pro Stealth (black) FMIC

3" cat back

JJR Dump pipe

Venom 500 series cat

Shoes:

19" Work TE37 (minor grazes)

Achilles rubber <1000kms

BC VR coilovers

Handling (installed <1000km/s):

Whiteline front swaybar links

Whiteline rear heavy duty sway bar (BNR11XXZ)

Whiteline radius bushes

I'm looking to sell for around $16k considering some of the major minor mods are done.

Happy to hear from others if that's realistic.

^^^Good call. :D

Very Phat looking car mate, easily one of the toughest / nicest looking Stags I've seen and it would be a shame if you let it go but meh, priorities blah etc.

Either way, Good luck with it and the other stuff.

Thanks guys.

We couldn't justify having 2 cars and the stagea lucked out as the less viable car to keep.

Really, this will clear the remaining amount of my loan and money towards a deposit on a house.. and I'll tack on lil extra on the mortgage to get a GTR*.

(*Not discussed with missus)

Nah, you can't blame Troy - that Roos definately not going to headbutt any more Skylines Karl.

I think the blame clearly lands at the feet of others and their needs for shelter, food, water and sensible transport. They carry on like that stuff matters - Meh

Don't worry tho - when they all leave you in 18yrs and child support payments are over you can start buyin big boys toys again :)

BTW a brother or sister of that Skippy did hit another car early this morning along the same stretch.

Sad seeing traffic just change lanes and keep going.

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
