Just looked at auction reports and not many marks, came through 5 times so I assume who ever bought it for you didnt want you to pay too much and pay what the seller wants.

You will need standard, wheels, exhaust, suspension and some minor panel work, nothing to much.

Yeah, I knew about the fact that it went through 5 times. J Spec were my brokers, fantstic job they did aswell :)

I NEED those STANDARD Parts! Anyone with any ideas or suggestions PLEASE PLEASE Post! :D:)

UPDATE : Suspension is half way there thanks to Sydneykid. Just need some standard fron springs.

Wheels are fine, we just need to source some R33 GTST rims.

If you can help with these parts post here or PM me

Cheers

Chris :P

Spoke to previous owner and he actually had 2 complete sets of stocker suspension, but he binned it all age ago unfortunatly, sorry :D

Oh ok, thats a bit of a shame. Thanks for finding out for me though Ska ;)

Just because I can I'm going to post what I think my Stag will look like with the 260rs Bodykit

Now:

MyStag2.jpg

Then:

MyStag260rsfront2.jpg

Still I'm not a real fan of the colour. I think I might change it. We will se how the dough fines out.

I have figured out that I will have around 6 grand to spend on the Stag by the time I get my P's. What should I spend it on?

6k.

well, put it ALL aside and get a manual conversion + PFC

Otherwise if no power target

Split dump/front

High flow cat

jap brand cat back (order now..it will take a while)

DFA and IEBC

Sydney kids FULL suspension set up

then splash the other 1k on some decent tyres and some other little goodies you may want...

Heres what I came up with -

- 260rs Bodykit

- Re Spray (Standard Colours)

- Racing Seats

- Black velor re-trim

- GTT Side IC

- Jaycar Gear (Boost controller etc.)

- CGC High Flow

- Tuning

- Cam gears

- Auto Trans Cooler

- Auto Vavle Body Upgrade

So thats it, I think it added up to around $5950 or something like that. What sought of power/400m times could I achieve with this set up?

(Remember that the car already has Exhaust, Coilovers, Mags)

Cheers,

Chris :O

Forgot it already had mods

Well in the end, it really depends what you want

Look in the thread "Get a stagea into the 13's"

The way SK talks about it, if you have a target power, get parts for that target power and dont spend top dollar

The way I said was, spend top dollar on parts, and have a power target but be aware that if you want more, you wont have to change the parts to better ones...

Sooooo

I mean, you seem to not be like me and have no power target but just want more power and handling and not care about looks.

1. If exhaust isnt turbo back, get frontpipe/dump and cat (big power gains there, and bottle neck for everything else)

2. Make sure to include caster bushes and sway bars in your list, they make a BIG difference (i can only speak about swaybars for now)

3. If your going to get a cooler, i would suggest to consider a front mount. GTR cooler with custom pipes (unless GTT cooler is fine for you (~200awkw))

Else, good luck with the car :O

Thanks AlexCim, had a look at the thread and am now left wondering, if I was to go for the GTR intercooler, what are its limits? How many kw's atw's can be obtained from it? :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
