First, I want to say, thank you to everyone. Some of the information I have learned through these forums have been of huge help so far.

 

I have owned my 97 Nissan Stagea RS Four for about 4 years now. Only have a few small bolt-ons right now, but looking to restore her to a more glorious day. Currently have a stock RB25DET with a HKS filter, Blitz upper exhaust pipe, and a Fujitsubo exhaust on Volk wheels lowered with Tien shocks. Bought it as is, but i have some pretty basic dreams about getting her to around 300-350 WHP and just keeping her clean right now. future modifications are: coil overs, turbo outlet, high-flowed turbo, intercooler and associated piping, and maybe a few more bolt-ons. As much as i love this beauty, i don't want to dig to deep into the block or head unless absolutely needed. Currently living in Japan, and moving back to the US in a few months. Thanks again for all the help, and I can't wait to learn as much as I can.

Welcome Brad! 

I love a good Stagea!!

You'll have no probs hitting 350HP without going into the engine. Decent cooler, turbo upgrade (maybe even just high flowed? Others on here can confirm), more boost, full exhaust, maybe ECU and cam gears will get you close. 

Will you have any probs taking her home?

Love that you also have one of the Kei ABC's.  I'm a massive fan of them, and have an AZ-1 myself!  I have very similar short term goals on my Unicorn as well, but my long term goals are super sleeper wagon.

Nice to meet you!

    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
    • Just to get this straight if you turn the splined shaft to the outside, it turns freely but the chain does not move? What happens when you move the chain, does the splined shaft turn? Surely the shaft is snapped, or the chain is seized and it took the teeth off whatever great is behind the steel bracket
    • Good on you for mentioning, that helps as far as other things you might need to check
