What i like about that car is the headlights, i like the darker areas around them. Wheels too Colour suits... I envy you

Granted yes, V35 wheels are hot....but where the hell do i get them... with the huge availability of V35's here in Aus Odds are ill get example B, as the have been a favorite for a long time. Ill let everyone know

For those that have manual stageas....with stock computers, here is your answer. What you would need to do is re-plug your stagea engine harness with the R33 GTST plug included with this ecu. In other words, get both plug diagrams, cut the stagea one off, attach GTST one and then off you go with the GTST ECU. Investigations been done, should work with Atessa no problems too, just need to hardwire the three Atessa outputs (there is a thead discussing this) I bought this specially for my manual conversion, which is now no longer going on, so i can sell this to someone who is already manualized (GoldZilla, directed at you!) PRICE: $250ono PS. Will post in the normal for sale too

The clutch lines are in good condition, i can get the slave to move easy by pushing the master with my hand. No leaks anywhere etc.

PM'ed. Im almost certain you'll take it Sk, but if others are interested, still please post your interest.

Well, ive made my mind up. The reasons i am keeping the auto is - I want to tow things, with the clutch i would want it wouldnt be fun! - 7k can be spent on other mods, which i CAN remove when selling the car. Meaning i wont loose THAT much money. Meaning i get other mods sooner too. - The money i save on the conversion, i can put towards importing something like a 7k non regoed, non complied race/drift silvia/GTST. If i can build the auto to be quick shifting, responsive, tough, hard launching and if i can somehow get it to work tiptronically style, that would be best. All i really hate about the auto is f**king kick down.... but ill deal with it. Many people have two cars, i am sure i can do that too...

Ok, thought i would start a discussion on the auto trans, get a good discussion going. Some discussion points, of which some are questions from me are - What power is the box good for - What upgrades can i do, apart from valve body? - Torque converter, whats the deal? Replacing it and so on (i want to replace mine) - Stall converter kit? Does anything exist? - Is there any addon where i can give my car tiptronic style gear changes on my S1? Basically make it a clutchless manual style thing? Anyone that can answer, cheers.

If anybody cant find us, my mobile number is 0439 909 610 Hopefully we will have the same location as last time.

Item: Apexi PFC engine management unit with commander Location:Melbourne Item Condition:New, sat on shelf Reason for Selling:Was going to use it when manual converting, but have decided to keep the auto Price and Payment Conditions: $950 delivered Extra Info: Contact Details:0439 909 610 or PM As you can by the fact i have a thread selling a pedal set, clutch master/slave etc that i had the full intention to go ahead with a manual conversion. Anyway, I have since decided that the auto is going to stay. I bought this in a group buy from Paul (Gr33dy) for $950 delivered and it has only just sat on my shelf since i received it. I opened the box to look at it, but havnt used it or anything. It is available for pickup. I will give you the receipt, meaning you still have the 12 month warranty. Price, $950 delivered via COD (for your security)

PS, i want SEMI subtle, but a tough look. As in people would look and think "damn! thats a tough wagon" not "that looks good"

Example A (In this colour) (+42 offset): Example B (In hyperblack, like a dusty silver) (+40 offset): These are the same widths, 18 inchs in sides....to fit AP's under My car is in my sig, white RS4 stock kit, no skirts or rear bar.

Ill come around and stand around if you want. Ill probably have nothing better to do anyway...

It doesnt matter, as you said, there are regulations, but it doesnt have to be stock. If he continues to question, ask what the car actually is (debage it like me )

Get the "nismo" ones and replace the bushes with the whiteline product.

you bought the plates chris?

Anything for WGNC34 December 97 yet? Cheers

Terminal, i knows, but its not smoked, its "UV cut glass" Could be the same thing though hehe Thats what i ment by, it came like that factory I personally like the untinted front windows, make the car look PIMP/VIP, the way i like it After having my celsior with a blacked out rear window, i will never have a car with illegal tinted rear/front windscreens!

cant drop the front window below 75% side windows are allowed to be 35% transmittance our side windows are 25%, but thats not illegal because it was ADR'ed like that/factory.

Yeh, i may be interested.

To be honest, i think ive convinced my self to 1 keep the auto and 2 keep my car Here is why TO keep the auto/car - I am getting a 600$ towbar...auto would be better (so i think?) - Rebuilding the auto will be $500 and it will shift quick and hard, stall converter for harder lauches - 7000, thats a lot of money. I can still tune the car for my power level with the auto in there - If i dont do trans, i can get my wheels/tyres/AP racing brakes/turbo - It wont keep value for shit. You cant remove a manual conversion when selling the car either, so its LOST LOST money. Can remove brakes, wheels, turbo, FMIC, exhaust etc. - I cant afford to be without a car for a long time, so modding the auto would be suitable. Cant afford to sell and wait to import a car, dont have spare cash to buy a 2nd stag while i sell mine - I like my car, i LOVE my car. I dont want another car. In the end, the 7grand a save on my auto i can use on buying a car trailer, and a car to put on it. Like an R32 GTST like gary or a silvia made for the track or something similar.

You know what, ive thought about this. I dont think its worth to convert a stagea to manual. The more and more i think about it, if its 6000 drive in drive out. 6000 + the power fc 1000 is 7000$ 7000$ is a LOT of money. Thats my wheels, tyres , brakes, turbo, ALL that there. There is no way that a stagea will keep anywhere close to that value either. Rebuilding the auto wont be any more then 1000. Maybe I should sell up and buy a S2 auto, tiptronic and then rebuild the box. The one at cannington is 19,900.... Ill have to do some serious thinking about this over the next few days

Funny, i adore the ass of the stagea more then the front but the longer and longer i own it, i prefer it exactly the way it is, as stock as it is. some wheels and maybe MAYBE a front bar...

Item:R33 GTST clutch master/slave/lines and pedal set Location:Melbourne Item Condition:Used, but good condition Reason for Selling:Not suited to my Stagea conversion...so i found out Price and Payment Conditions:DD, COD, Auspost MO Extra Info: Contact Details:0439 909 610 Bought a set of R33 GTST clutch master cyl, slave cyl, lines to suit and also clutch pedal, brake pedal and accelerator pedal This kit is perfect for a manual conversion on a GTST. All you need after is the box and interior. They are in good condition, bought about 4 months ago and since have sat in my garage. Asking my buy price of $350 + postage. Prefer pickup as the lines could bend in the post

See my post. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...dpost&p=1883926

f**k, ok well, there are some issues! I spoke to Steve and here is what is the go - R33 GTST pedals are no good, you need to have the Autech ones. GTST wont bolt in - R33 GTST master is no good, need to have the GTR one to suit the Autech pedals as the rod is shorter. - R33 GTST handbrake is good to use, need all the mounting brackets etc - Not too sure on suitability of GTR boxes as he said the GTR has 4.11 ratios and he uses GTS4 boxes which have the stagea 4.3 diff ratios (I dont know what that says about the guys using GTR boxes in their cars?) All in all, he said with four days labour and $6000 he could supply and fit all the parts needed for a drive in drive out conversion. He wants me to call back on the weekend to get prices for the parts alone, as i would prefer to get someone to do the conversion for me here. Sounds like a briliant guy. Also, stock rear wing is $150 + shipping, he might have one in white too. He says he has almost one in every colour so i think ill grab one of those too while i am at it. So, operation is back on hold for now, Ill speak to him more on the weekend and let everyone know what the outcome it. -
