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

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
