oh yeah, and you might wanna touch-up the photos and re-post them, 'cos they're really dark.

Other than that, car looks sweet!

Did you buy from a dealer or broker?

Story goes something like this.......

Driving along Ferry Rd in my '96 Magna and stopped at yard to check out imports, hoping I might find an affordable Liberty wagon. After glancing round at some Delica's, Lines, Soarer's, FTO'S etc. Next to Soarer was this green wagon with some weird badge on the grille. "What is THAT?" i think to my self. 'RSFOUR' hmmm, sounds promising, 'STAGEA' :uhh: STAGJI WHAT!!!

Had roof racks, a must on performance wagons i rekon, mad foggies, looked mean, two sunroofs, LEATHER INTERIOR, :crazy: , POWER WINDOWS, MIRRORS, TURBO 4WD!!!! My GODDD..... aggheemmm

Anyway, $26,000......

Drove off...couldn't stop thinking of it....

Went to get some paint on Bris. Rd, near there yard with even more imports and 4 'STAJIFINGIES', and different colours.....Only one had leather, 44,000k's, new tyres, no scratches, $24,000....neg. to $20,000 cash inc. 3yr war. and 6mth rego.

tbc.....gtg oz fair movies, gf wants to 'go out' pfftttt...... :wassup: i just wanna drive ittt

Hahaha, good story :rofl:

Today I got two people asking me what sort of car it was :rofl: One bloke went right out of his way to weave in and out of traffic to pull up next to me to ask me questions about it. He said 'what's in it?' I said 'turbo straight 6 4wd' he replied 'ahhh, it's going up against the new Audi A4's and Volvo S70's'.

I replied 'naaa, their a little too late, this is a 1997 model'... His jaw just dropped :rofl:

Mad wagon - did you put the intercooler kit in ? what size is it ?

I want to get plates saying NO VOLVO, I also live the second looks you get and everybody ask's what the hell is that, I just say Skyline wagon with 4WD, nice and simple.

Looking to sell Tein coil overs, any offers as I have some 20" Budnik's comming soon so I need to put standard suspension back on to give nice height.

It sits low whith coil overs, nice off set camber all round if you want.

Those R34 rims look awesome on your stagea. that's the sort of rims i want ot end up with once i get mine. I'm going to the goldcoast for indy in October, looking to buy one then.

None of my mates know what i'm talking about when i tell them i'm getting a Stagea. Skyline wagon seems the easiest way to tell them.

it used to be a 2.5 NA 4wd, its still badged as a 2.5 NA 4wd :)

That would be a great model to start off with, but they don't comply here. They are not really a high performance import, so DOTARS wouldn't let it off the ship. We only get RB25DET 4WD, mostly auto's, RSFOUR is my model. I haven't seen a fully complied 260RS yet, but there are RAWS working on the paperwork to get them complied.

Some pictures would be good :)

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
