True.

There are plenty of very boring looking modified cars out there :P

I throw all my spare cash at my Z....

I'm sure in time I'll modify my Stagea - a front-mount would probably be the first port of call. But for now I'm enjoying it as is!

hey mcnamg i aint seen any on the streets except the ones in the cannington caryard.

we should get together one weekend and check out our stageas :P

prolly only be 3 cars but thats alright  :rave:

cheers

Brad

brad !

its gary here (olds live close to you, you know s14 blah blah)

ive jsut found this stagea part of the forum, been thinking about trading the s14 in on one and doing the 26 install. Went to see kris last week and he said you had bought one and was doing the same, i was steaming. hahahah thought it would be something original

anyway i wanna see your car, sms me or something - 0412 448 308

btw - i was looking on the cannington wholesale site not long ago, saw a nice 96 one with mags, zorst etc - bitch, that must be yours now hey ??

:)

lol....owning a stagea is an experience initself, for some of us it takes up a lot of our thoughts and wishes and you'll find any excuse to bring it to life. It's a bit of a guzzler but it makes up for it in performance, admiring looks and even pulls chikkkss :wassup:

i crashed mine but im well underway finding another one and if you think about getting one, just get it....

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!

well i think i have seen yours then a few mounths ago driving past what use to be tarismo motors on main north east road

silver 98, black leather, twin sunroof, 19's, manual conversion with short shift kit, lowered and bilstiens, Profec B boost controller, 3 inch dump 3.5 inch cat back exhaust and plenty more mods to come.

mcnamg the photo in your avatar is a photo taken of my grille on a cruise before the work was done.

Cheers

I've got one as well, had it for a couple of months.   Ben, what colour is yours?

rsfour, have you got an exaust on your beast? i recon i saw you a month ago on south road, heading towards town. gave you a wave and beep! it was a red one anyway....first one other than mine that i have ever seen!!!! awesome work!

three for adelaide :D

Well I have my red beastie its great looking at doing a couple of things to it. it's a bit dicy on the fuel econ. :D

I have seen a couple in brisbane and one silver one with a sheila driving it in Toowoomba

rsfour, have you got an exaust on your beast? i recon i saw you a month ago on south road, heading towards town. gave you a wave and beep! it was a red one anyway....first one other than mine that i have ever seen!!!! awesome work!

three for adelaide :D

Yeah, that was me. You had the silver one right? There's also a green one with white mags that I was looking to buy, so that's four. I see you just had yours dynoed, does that mean that mods are on the way?

Cheers

cool -rsfour, that was you! classic. hey have you seen the one in the paper? is that the green one? 24 grand or something, 26000 k's.

yep, mods are on the way! just as soon as money is on the way :D hehe

definatley gonna get an exaust this year, but am really looking forward to new suspension. have you had much done to yours?

Doug, the one in the Trading Post is the green one, its been in there for ages. I took it for test drive about four months ago and the tacho was reving past 9000RPM!! Either an electrical fault or km's been tampered with. Also, I wasn't too crazy about the colour.

As for mods, only minimal at this stage; cat-back exhaust, pod filter, AFR. I'm on the lookout for a front/dump pipe, some people I've spoken to don't think a Skyline one will fit so I might have to get one made up. I'm in the middle of fitting an earthing kit on at the moment. I doubt it'll enhance the performance though:(

hey daniel, let me know what you find out about the dump pipe. im thinkin i might do the same, but start off with a cat-back. did you notice much of a differnce?

apparently earthing kits can improve performance, had you had any problems with ignition or anything?

as for that green one, i was also slightly suspicious of the low k's, it would of cost a fortune to buy!!

Doug, I'm not sure about how much difference it makes as it was on the car when I bought it. The green one is the only other one I've driven and that felt slower.

The difference in sound however is something else, I find myself downshifting every time I approach traffic lights.

As for the front pipe I'm considering this one for $220 delivered to Adelaide: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=54148

The guy selling them reckons it'll fit.

Cheers

    • I had a 1981 ALFA with an electronic speedo sender that would work for months at a time, and also noth work for months at a time.
    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
