Found the Abflug online shop http://www.ab-flug.co.jp/indexf.htm and noticed as well as kits they have Stagea specific parts from PentRoof... one of which I think I know:

7934190001.jpg = PentRoof Bilstein coilovers!! $3650 plus cost of getting em here!!

But what exactly are these goodies Im looking at???? - please tell me they're not only for 260RS - they say WGNC34!!:

1. 7934180000.jpg = ? = ~73,000 yen ($900)

2. 7934180002.jpg = ? = ~64,000 yen ($800)

3. 7934180003.jpg = ? = ~137,000 yen ($1700)

4. 7934190000.jpg = ? = ~29,000 yen ($370)

5. 7934190002.jpg = ? = ~13,000 yen ($170)

And I like this Ablug Stagea bonnet vent to get ambient air to your pod (scoops are allowed in WA :( )

6. 0034010001.jpg0034030001.jpg = Bonnet vent = 9240 yen = ~$110 :)

Do I feel some group-buys coming up??? :)

:P

Yeah I will be ordering the scoop soon - lemme know if anyone wants one.

So can anyone tell me from just looking exactly what parts 1 -> 5 pictured above are and if they look meant for normal Stageas??? The site says WGNC34 but I hope they arent only 4 260RS??

Cheers

OK worked out a bit of translation using babelfish translator - pic number 1. is for fitment to RB26DETT (260RS) as noted in the translation of the "Additional Info", but seems to be the only one that is 260RS... the others in additional info translate to "R32/33/34 conformity"

Can anyone work out what the other parts are what engine they look meant for.

The "Additional Info" button on the Abflug site for each part is the left of the two grey/back buttons... the right button in each item is "Add to Cart"...

But yeah - someone who knows parts by looking at them have a stab at what all these parts above are??

Cheers

2. Dump pipes RS260 twin turbo only

3. Front pipe RS260 twin turbo

4. Dump and front pipes again

5. Adjustable Castor bars should be ok on RS4 but a castor kit from whiteline is probably just as good.

6. Rear sub frame lock bushes or ‘pineapples’ Probably ok on RS4 but a bit over the top for a road car IMHO

Thanks Burns! I think on the site it has reference in the "Additional Info" to all of those parts for R33 and R34 engines also - but use the RB26DETT picture... but Im gonna need to find someone who speaks Japanese to confirm for sure. But at least now I know what type of parts they are!

6. = yeah pineapples - of course... but in aluminium/stainless? I thought they were like polyurethane/plastic normally? How do metal ones work?

Will the pineapples and castor bars work on normal Stageas??

Cheers

Adam

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
