I reckon I am the only stagea owner on here with a stagea living next door.

Blue series 1 with r34 gtr rims and a hge bodykit was bought by the guys next door yesterday.

Then they moved out today. Guess they couldn't handle not having the only stagea on the street.

That, or they had to sell the house to buy the car

bout time someone did it the right way round, Just about to buy the stagea I sold to buy my house back again after 12 months, sold it to my mother, she has just bought a Rav4 V6 (off me as a toyota salesman) and so I am buying the Volvo back!!

spotted silver stag this morning about 7:30am heading past Shacks holden in fremantle (Queen Victoria Street ) had sticker on the rear side window... I was at the lights on ord street waiting to turn right.

There are two Stageas here on Mt Tamborine. Its about the same as next door. If I logged how many timrs I've seen Forbes" silver S1, this topic would be longer than Gone with the Wind. And frankly I don't give a damn.

I had a few over this week, spotted Mr GTST on the cnr of william and hay st a couple of days ago sans stagea.

Spotted chuckies eye searing yellow S2 in my driveway last night too :D

in Perth, black s2 with [R34 WGN] numberplates and black rims, lowered with gtr front mount by the looks of it. Lunchtime today on mitchell fwy near hepburn ave offramp area, looked very very nice ;)

anyone on the forums by any chance?

p.s. i was gonna tell him its actually a C34 but i thought i better not :)

Spotted a white S2 parked along the railway line near Seven Hills shopping centre today...
Not the one I saw, mate, this one had black letters/numbers on a white background - I think it was COP-003 or something similar.

Also, my oldies tell me that they've seen a few more in/around my area yesterday. They were with me the other day when I saw the white s2, and Mum said that was NOT one of the ones they saw yesterday...

Spotted this car again today in the same spot - I can now confirm that the plates are right: COP-003.

spooted this afternoon at around 6pm in Mudgeeraba: Grey S1 - looked completely stock, std body, no skirts/spoiler, etc. Had heaps of stickers on the rear window, but I was too far back to read what they were. Tried to follow, but wasn't willing to lose my license trying to keep up! He/she was hoofing it!

GREEN SERIES 1 SITTING AT LIGHT`S ON KELVIN RD/TONKIN HWY 8,15pm ish :P DID WAVE.I think he may have waved back but to late goooone.chuckie.

yep seen ya, did wave, nice stagea like the yellow ones. :P

Ahh nice one where did you get the 260RS model?? i want one! is it a real model you built yourself or a preassembled one??

I have never seen anyone driving the White S2 that sits out on Malcolm Rd.

Had a sighting today when i was in Forest Hill Chase, a Red S2 with colour matched roof bars and R33 GTR rims... looked pretty shmick :P i love seeing my fellow brothers, and always try and park next to em when i can and hope they get back to their car at the same time.

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
