Speed magazine said it's pronounced Stayjah.

We all know how reliable the info in magazines is :D

I've always pronounced it Stay-jee-ahh.

As long as people know what you're talking about, then I don't think it matters all that much.

Hahahaha rofl if someone asks me what a stagea is ill tell them its a Skyline Turbo and Gearbox Wagon ;)

I looking at the japanese characters for Stagea they can be broken down to 'Su' 'Ta' 'Ji' 'A' which to me sounds like Sta Gee Aaah

"STAY..........GEEE.............AHHHH"! is how my parts guy in Japan calls it dont start me on Subaru.

I had to laugh,

but HPI also pronounced it Stay-jah as well (possibly a bit more reliable than Speed ?)

We know what HPI is like and half the writers for SPEED write for HPI so no need to coment either way.

I'm confused. i don't know how to pronounce my cars name. some people say it differently all the time.

is the 'g' pronounced as in Gorilla, or as in Germany?

I believe it is pronounced 'Stay-Jah'- Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds right, and I have hears others say it like this aswell

    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen. The photos from the Offset Kings event at Sunrise 2016. https://fatlace.com/offset-kings-okayama-at-sunrise/
    • Isn't there a PAR engineering gearset that has closer to stock ratios? And they claim they'll do whatever ratios you want.
    • And this is the the thing with a high powered, AWD, heavy car. The engine is easy, the driveline costs just as much as the engine. 🤷‍♂️ Welcome to GTRland. Whatever you think your budget is, double it. Whatever you think your timeline is, triple it.
    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
