Car: Nissan 2002 M35 Stagea Autech Axis Version
Kilometres: 78,000
Location: Geelong, Victoria

Condition:

Hi There,
Unfortunately it has come time to sell my 2002 Nissan Stagea Autech Axis Edition. I was the first Australian owner of the car and it is a pleasure to drive but my plans have changed and it is time to sell. My original plan when purchasing this car was to daily it and keep my ae86 as a weekend car. My plans have changed where have turned the ae86 into a track car and I am now needing a tow car to suit.

I purchased the car through a private import company (SUPAWAY SERVICES IMPORT GROUP PTY LTD) in September 2011, who imported the car with 40,200 km’s on the clock. I obtained the car with 42,000km’s. The car will come with the Import papers I received from the original Importer.

I have tried to keep the car in immaculate condition with regular service and maintenance. I began servicing the car every 10,000 km’s but at 60,000km’s (past year) I have serviced the car at 5,000km intervals. The last service (9/9/2013) consisted of new spark plugs, fuel & air filter, all engine belts so this will save the new owner a lot of time and money.

I have also replaced in the past 4 months the Following (Brand New Unless Stated):
- Standard Fuel pump with an Upgraded High Flow fuel pump.
- Genuine Nissan Passenger and Driver Side Cam Angle Sensors
- Genuine Nissan Air Flow Meter
- 18 MHz radio frequency booster for Australian FM Channels.

Other parts which I have replaced within the past 10 months include:
- Drivers Side Passenger Power window motor (This was a second hand unit from another Stagea)
- Front Brake Discs (RDA Standard Discs)
- Front Brake Pads (Bendix Ultra’s)

This being an Axis edition this includes some features that aren’t standard to the regular M35 Model:
- Factory Flared Autech style Body kit with over fenders, which includes the different front end grill/facia than standard
- Cream Leather interior (Front seats are electric and heated)
- AXIS specific suspension components

Other Nissan Items that are not standard to the AXIS but are included:
- Rear boot privacy curtain
- Bose subwoofer (located within the spare wheel)

The Only Modifications minor Modifications I have made are:
- Manaray Vertec VR5 18 x 8.5 +35
- Ez Lip located on the Front Bumper

The only issues that I have had with the car are the following:
- The GPS/TV is intermittent in working. There seems to be a connection issue as it only seems to work on higher temperature days. I have had an auto electrician look at this, but he could not find any issue from looking at the head unit.
- The 4WD light comes on at random stages when starting the car. I have also got this checked out by fellow Stagea owner with an ecu error check program. We found that there may be air in the system Attessa which is throwing the 4WD error code. This seems to happen intermittently.

The car is overall in fantastic condition and an amazing daily driver but it needs to go! I will supply rego and RWC with the car, the rego expires in August 2014 so the new buyer wont need to worry about this for a while!!!

Price: $16000 with REGO and RWC included

Hi guys,

After Spending Majority of my weekend at Scotty's Custom's (thanks mate!) The following parts have been replaced:

- Whiteline Compression Rod Bushes

- Passenger Side Rocker Cover Gasket

- Rear RDA Rotors

- Rear RDA Gold Pads

- Attessa System Pressure Pump was replaced from a wreck that Scott had.

Price remains at $14,500 with rwc and reg till August 2014 but I am open to offers. I am also keen on trading for a mk2 BA for BF XR6 Falcon ute with cash adjustment my way.

Thanks

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
