Thanks for all who have given me their support and friendship over the years.

Ive enjoyed every year of my Stagea ownership, but sad to say the car is now with a new owner.

Been a long journey over almost 8yrs of ownership, from having one of the very original Stagea's registered in SA (was in the first couple registered here, when they were very rare beasts indeed), to modifying it progressively over time.

110rwkw with a pod filter and cat-back, to over 250rwkw with plenty more left in it, its been a journey indeed.

Now time to get into a standard everyday local sedan - looking at a BF series Falcon later this week - and just get by until I'm finished with my uni studies and am out working as a Radiographer.

Not going anywhere, but moving on......

Maybe in 5yrs time I can get back into a performance import; we'll see (R35s will be keenly priced then!)

Hey Brendan,

Good luck with finishing up uni mate! hope all is going well for you. its been a good 2 and a half years since i got rid of my 32 (and probably that long since i have been on here as well), I have kept the boost bug at bay by riding motorbikes and playing in the mud in 4wds. I stongly reccomend both.

Cheers

Carl

    • I mean I agree. I've seemingly never had issues and I have RS4's in the rain, but I drive pretty slow in the rain, and I commute around on the street and pretty much never push it. But it's not like you're going to uncontrollably slide off the street with them in the rain. At least here in Aus. And I say this before I drive to Tassie in Winter. AS above, the term "Semi" is a bit of a misnomer. The ContiSportContact7 is also a "Semi" or a "UHP" tyre. It's the same category as an AD09 in any case.
    • These are not semis. None of the tyres in that comparo are semis. They are UHP tyres. Perfectly streetable. I'm on my second set of AD09, after using a couple of sets of AD08R. On the street. Every day. I get 15-20 thousand km out of them, which is perfectly acceptable. They are a really nice tyre to drive on. I have few, if any, complaints.
    • You'd hope, if it came from ACS, that it wouldn't be that.
    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
