Hey Guys,

I will be buying a Stagea around September this year! Yay! Just to introduce myself.

I'm Chris aka OC. I am searching for a black 1996 Stagea, with dual sunroofs and a leather interior. So if anybody sees a Stag like this, send me a PM.

Anyways, I have a bit of a wish list, a build up plan I suppose you could call it.

GT 3040

(.70 COMP & .82 EXH HOUSING), tial sports 38mm external wastegate, exhaust flange, modified standard manifold to suit & braided oil and water lines. HKS FMIC. 550cc injectors, a new computer of some sought. New exhaust, and an HKS SSQ bov.

I'd like to convert it to a manual, but I suppose that will have to wait.

As for a bodykit, I'm getting a few quotes on the Stagea Vol 1 bodykit from take low, couple that with some 18 inch rims lowered with some whiteline suspension. It will be sweet. Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated.

What a coincidence- I have one just like that for sale!!!

(oh... except its yellow... and a series 2... and no sunroofs.... and no leather... :Oops: )

Nah - buy Lone's Stag and paint it Black - its got everything else you're after and only $22,000 I think :P

Hey Lone, just read the article on autospeed, do Stags really accelerate that fast? Anyways, I have been doing some shopping on Nengun and have already purchased some parts, heres what I bought.

Blitz - V-Spec LM Intercooler

Greddy/Trust - Power Extreme II Muffler

HKS - Super SQV Kit

Thats it so far, just wanting some feedback and some advice on the turbo. Im looking at round 250-300awkw. What sought of turbo should I be using? Would an HKS GT3040 be a good choice? Im looking at buying the boost controller and the fuel managment system from Jaycar, would they be suitable? I'll keep you guys posted, Im now on the hunt for some new rims, what sought of rims do you guys have?

Hey guys,

I'm looking into getting a stag i currently own a 1996 Mitsubishi Legnum VR4   :) I was just wondering how much the RB26DETT Powered Stagea costs or whether the RB25DET has mad potential and approx pirces thanx!

The best I have see on the dyno from an RB25DET was 524rwkw, it cost a little over $25K for the mods all up including the support systems. That's turbo, exhaust, intercooler, pistons, rods porting, manifolds, wastegate, cams, Power FC, injectos, fuel pumps etc. I recon I could get a bit over 1000 bhp from an RB25DET if I had the budget.

Is that enough potential? :Pimp2:

      Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
