The yards are rip offs.

I loked at an S1 in Ferry Rd. $26,000 reduced to $20.995.

My do it yourself import cost me $14,000 on the road with comp. Ins.Was Y450,000.

Correct me if I am wrong, but a lot of guys in other States seem to wait an eternity to get thier Stageas. Freight here to Qld is quite fast. There is a ship that only does Japan/brisbane. There are excellent RAWS compliers here also.

If I was really keen to get a Stagea quick smart I would look at doing it thru Brissie. It is not much to fly here and think of the QUICK trip home. Hmmmm.

Did you direct import or buy from a dealer?

If a dealer had brought mine in it would have been $20K in a yard.

It doesn't cost $6k to get here and drive home, even from Canberra.

have a look on page 5 "My MR30 Replacement".

See the absolute beauty of "THE GREEN MACHINE"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH---------wot rhymes with silver?lollollol.

p.S. luv yur kit. GREEN = jealousy. boohooboohooboohoo.

Two friends saw a silver Stagea driving north thru Gympie on Sunday morning. They didnt get a rego no. but where sure excited to tell me that they seen another one - not bad since mines the only one they've ever seen.

Plus I just worked out that I must have seen TECHO's a couple of months back on the Bruce Highway heading north thru Gympie - I remember the rego 534...

bit late but spotted a series 2 260rs coming onto the kwinana freeway northbound at about 8:30 in the morning mid last week dont know if it was a real 260 but had kit and genuine rims so maybe it is looked schmick in plain white only saw it for like 10 seconds then I lost it behind a truck my lane was moving too fast.

I also quite regularly see the red one with the stagea plates in joondalup during the day

^^^ that series 2 if its the white one is a genuine 260 he lives down that way..i also saw that red one with the red/white number plate STAGEA ....still trying to get the plates off him :)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
