G'day all,

Im a new Stagea owner, recently bought the lightly mod'd Stag in Brisbane from a fellow fourm member, and am happy-as about that fact! Yessir-e, another Stagea in little ol'Adelaide.

I bought the nicely priced low km Series 1 Stagea from a top skylinesaustralia member who was very pleasant to deal with (was very easy doing the purchase with same day return airfares from Adelaide). :)

Do any members know how many Stagea's are rolling around the Adelaide streets? They seem to be rarer than rocking horse poo. :confused: Ive seen two in 6months; a red series 1 and a green series 1. Now we can add a white pearl one to the mix, with a nice subtle bodykit.....

Also, with me being new to the Skyline turbo game having owned Falcodores and the like previously (mind you, Ive got my mod'd 150rwhp '98 Fireblade too, so Im already a performance junkie), can some Adelaide members recommend to me the 'preferred' workshops to go for complete servicing and performance modifications? :uh-huh:

Any info or recommendations would be highly appreciated. Want to find a servicer I can trust with the Stagea, plus of course I need a FMIC and 3in dump pipe and cat-converter, as we all do.

Cheers to you all!

Welcome mate, that makes it at least six Stageas in Adelaide. Three silver, one green, one red (mine) and yours.

The dump pipe and cat-converter are identical to the R33's so you won't have any trouble finding one. BDL Holdings at Richmond are good if you need FMIC piping made up or exhaust work done.

Look forward to seeing you on the road.

Cheers

Daniel

      Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".

      What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.

      For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway

      Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.

      My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
