how many stageas in perth?

[PHATR32]

I saw a stagea today for the first time on the freeway, and i gotta say it looked f*cking awesome.

i think it was stock, but they look heaps better in real life than they do on he web.

it was white and the dude has a ladder strapped to the top of it.

Are these common in perth?

get her to go and have a look at these can just wander about and show her them

i love em

a friends brother bought a silver Stagg from the place on sheperton road and its such a nice car

there is a stagea forum on the SAU forums too, they also have a spotted thread etc.

They are nice cars, but the stock auto ones are pretty slow and VERY boat-ish.

I've yet to drive the Autech 260RS, but hopefully I will one day

there is exactly 7.983534924334 stegea's in perth.

Ive only ever seen 1.

Yeah, Auto Wholesalers have a 260RS for sale, I've been negotiating with the missus bout trading the 4 door for it

I can give you a rough estimate on numbers... AutoWholesale are the only WA yard that is a RAW for Stageas, and they have bought in and complied and sold 28 so far. Plus there's another 4 or so that I know of (including mine) bought in from Eastern States... so Id estimate somewhere between 35 and 40 Stageas driving around in WA. Doesnt seem that many though coz I hardly ever see them out and about.

Have driven the 260RS at Autowholesale - very nice - but still very choked up due to emissions compliance - 2 x cats and 4 x pre-cats... so 3" it straight through, a few other basic mods and a bit of boost and they chirp all 4 tyres. For those that werent aware - Autowholesale this week knocked $10,000 of the price of that 260RS to get it out of the yard - so now $39,990 - not bad for GTR lovers with families or who dont want the attention a GTR gets - a 1997 4 door GTR for $40g - and talk about a sleeper!

And the standard RSFours are certainly heavy in stock form - but 1998 onwards came in manual or tiptronic - but with some similar mods as you'd do to a sedan Line and they can be alot of fun too... a few Stageas around oz at 250rwkw... and one in NZ running low 11 second runs

[uneekwahn]

wow

$40k.

I'm definately going to give it a whirl at that price

The g/f was trying to twist MY arm for us to sell the line and the stag!

Also Jash used to have a lovely silver stagea!

[SLIPPERY]

it was white and the dude has a ladder strapped to the top of it.

steve

hahaha yeah he flew past me on joondalup drive a while back

i though "wtf, a ladder?" lol

saw one in the carpark at st john of god hospital in subi last friday

[StageZilla]

i got one too, its RB26VL with new username, as old one stuffed up and wouldnt let me login anymore.

anyways im amazed there is 40 in perth, ive seen 2 others besides mine so far since last november when i got mine.

manual and rb26 is heaps nicer than the auto 25's :headspin: little bit of a rougher ride, but more fun

ill be on some cruises soon, and prolly at the upcoming dyno day at hyperdrive

cheers
