my car needs its suspension upgraded to somehting a little stiffer, my brakes could do with a little bit of upgrading, and the powerfc, also the paint needs to be really touched up, the spoiler, front and rear bar, bonnet and drivers door need respraying....... probably should get the whole thing resprayed but i dont think that they could match my colour ;)

i want mine resprayed - a metallic purple - i wanted the R34 metallic blue - but i saw an R33 in that the other day and i didnt like it!!

Really i would like a colour that is like a cherry red in some light and a black in other light .... u know kinda chamelon but not ..... be way expensive tho!!

i think they have a name for it, like harlequin or something

i dunno, im pretty sure theyd be able to do it, i doubt it would be THAT expensive, i mean compared to other things

it was gonna cost like 600 dollars to redo my back bar and spoiler and touch up the bad stuff on the other parts of the body

but it would look shit with little bits done and little bits left fine

so it would be better to get the whole thing done in one hit

slip in qld just had his r31 resprayed, i wonder how much that cost him, i dont want a shit job done either, i want it done well, not with trims sprayed when they shouldnt be ect

i saw a 300zx resprayed, looked great, get up close, they pretty much taped the windows and sprayed everything, even the door locks

Hiya Everyone :wavey:

Quick question.... does anyone remember seeing a picture posted/linked to on SAU of a black Stagea with a R34 front on it.... I believe the car was in japan..... I remember seeing it ages ago and would like to find it again....

i hate xmas time full stop, more of that time where everyones so happy for nothing

theres no reason to be happy its just another excuse to rush out and buy gifts and crap, and theres always the gift that keeps on givving, a lovely dint in the back of ya car, everytime i look at my car i get a little angry

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