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

:D

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:

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
