So, i'm ready to buy my first car on P1 license.

I'm looking for a compromise between a relatively cheap car, fast, and practical. For me the Stagea ticks all those boxes, but since I live in NSW, all variants of the Turbo'd stagea's are banned.
Consider me complete newbie, but would it be possible to remove the turbo from the stagea, and if so, how much would it cost? Is it worth it?

No No and No. Wait until you have your full licence. Use the search button about other p platers doing the same thing. You could just get a series 2 3.5l NA allready they have the same power

As Tommy Kaira RL has stated; The PNM and PM Stagea are both available with an N/A VQ35de engine.

They drive very nicely, and unmodified; they are easily a match for the VQ25det powered NM35 Stagea.

Due to the power/weight ratio; these shouldn't be on the banned vehicles list.

Set your google fu to stun, and get on the case.

    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
    • Ah coolant overflow, previous discussions make way more sense now lol. 
    • ok. Yea, then I would need to remove the turbo and weld an adapter on to it instead, if I fuc* this one up.  
    • No. Only for a standard ECU with/without Nistune. Standalone has no need for it. That's like the 3rd time I've said so.   And as to that sensor linked - yes, it does look like it would be the right one. I've never bothered to see how available they were - just assumed that they'd be hard to find. I think I'd be planning to go Link ECU rather than buy sensors I don't actually want to make Nistune work, if I did not already have Nistune. As you do not already have Nistune, you should realy consider your options.
