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 ;)

Thats Gold :)

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

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
