Hey Guys Thought maybe we could add a thread for all the stageas we spot on the road. Guess there cant be too many around because I have known about them for ages and havent yet seen one on the road seen lots in the cannington auto wholesale yard tho :P

My wife rang me this afternoon she was on the way to work driving down stock road towards canning highway ( i am in wa btw :( ) and spotted a silver stagea with a milo tin on it and the rego number ( from what she can recall) was a black on white or white on black cant remember that read (edit licence deleted to respect owners privacy :D ). Does this beast belong to anyone on here?

My wife likes your car :boinkcar:

If anyone else spots a Volvo oops my bad a stagea :) post it up I am sure if someone on here spots another member they would love to know about it

edit: a few rules we should abide by to respect others privacy tho. no rego numbers as we dont need anyone having their car targeted.

:P

up here there prob abt. 10 all up i rekon, 2 at preferred and 3 at mjr + 2 rs260s waiting to be complied, mate of mine has a black one '99 xenon lights, had it for 2 yrs in his garage and cant take it out coz no plates, and 3 or 4 on road, including mine coz her spirit lives :angel: .

drove past mjr the other week and noticed a silver one out front, strange thing about this one that i noticed immediately were the foggies in the grill. after a quick yuwee i went and enquired about it and it was a late '98 series 2 with the tv and xenon headlights. Steering wheel was nice on this one so was the meshy trim. Was brought in by a bloke from melb. and left the next day.

Christian where are the pics of your beast?

Ill extend that to any other stagea owners post up some pics of the beast whether she be stock or modded I am sure everyone would like to see what everyone else has ;)

The only reason my wifes spots so many cars is shes too busy watching what everyone else is doing rather than watching her driving :) must be why she didnt notice that gate she used to modify the side of her car last year :)

:P

There is one in Newcastle. someone jsut bought it from the sketchys't caryard around but i looked at the car while it was there... seemed in good nick. Tried to catch him for a race in mum's 9-5 aero saab yesterday but there was to many cars between us lol. thought it might be a close race, was intrested to see how it would turn out. Will have to track it down in mum's car again (would use my car but don't want to embarres him... its only stock)

I've got one as well, had it for a couple of months.   Ben, what colour is yours?
Silver, factory BBS alloys, rear spoiler, no sunroof(s), 100% stock.

Only got it 2 weeks ago.

I'll be trying to only drive it during the week & take out my DR30 or my Z on the weekends!

Nah, it's the designated daily-driver. My Z is heavily modded, my DR is a little & my wallet & prevention-of-attention (theft-wise) sense is telling me to keep the Stagea 'looking boring' & not standing out.

Ask me again after I've finished paying for my 450HP Z motor & re-trimmed the DR (ie in a few years time!)

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
