I have the cloth front and rear seats and the 4 door trims from my series 2 auto. All in perfect cndition, no longer needed Perfect for a later model update to series 1's Can post interstate if needed $325 lot Also matching centre console $80

Cost? Removable tongue?

Have a look at my thread when I tried to sell a set, most stagea owners are tight arses!

This looks like the same car when it was in Japan still?

I looked into doing this. The R34 console from the gear stick back is very similiar, approx 10-15mm less in width. The r34 console from the gear stick forward is different and will not match the stagea dash. I was thinking doing a cut and shut with the 2 console. Would require some fancy welding and repaint.

Try posting in the Stagea section http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/St...ussion-f82.html This may help you out http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/S1...to-t201369.html

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ma...html&st=120 Post 139 Buy parts thru www.japanparts.com direct from japan, will be cheaper than nissan aust. With a good exchange rate now, should be around $700-750 delivered Just read thru that thread to be sure on all the part numbers. My s/hand console cost me approx $600 del 18 months ago, I haven't seen once since for sale, they are rare.

Count me in

I must be bored http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/19...l&hl=stagea Autech for $2250 if it is still availiable http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Au...l&hl=stagea http://cgi.ebay.com.au/1998-Nissan-Stagea-...1QQcmdZViewItem http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...amp;Make=NISSAN http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...amp;Make=NISSAN http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/NISSA...amp;Make=NISSAN

Carfull The one you have listed is for a WC34 Stagea, not R33

Chris, The part comes off fairly easily. I have one if you want it. $20 delivered or you can have it if you pick it up in Brisbane.

I checked the JJR dump pipe compared to the factory dump pipe. The O2 senor actually protruded in further with the JJR pipe. So that blow's your mechanic's theory.

Chris I will have a look tonight for you Darrin

I have a JJR split dump and the factory cast dump pipe sitting on the floor at home. I can tonight measure the difference in the tread depth of each to confirm if there much of a difference if any between the two. At least that theory can be solved. Running the bigger exhaust will cause an extra 1-3psi in boost pressure which is not helping you. Nissan turbo cars run very rich, so best fix is to fit some sort of fuel correction computer Have you read the fuel economy thread for comparison? Have you had it on a dyno to check air fuel ratio's? It may have a leaky injector? Possibly get them cleaned or run some injector cleaner. When I had my r33, I was happy if I could get 280k's from a tank and in my Stagea I am still on my first tank of fuel in 18 months, it is very economical

I actually got the GTR pump to fit yesterday and got the car running today with new injectors and power FC I had to hack some of the lid and box to get the pump in. Does not fit totally like the factory pump but will still work. Hopefully get a tune in a week or two.

$80 delivered for the pair

Brad, Probably look like these ones or my car Assuming you put a R34 front on

Try this, save going to the post office http://www1.auspost.com.au/pac/

Looking great Brycey Gives me some motovation to finish mine now. When you get it home, take some more photo's please. Bonnet hinges, headlight mounts, inside of front guards over the strut towers Can notice the extra work CCubed have put into the front guards. Are you fitting the factory rubber between the bonnet and front bar?

www.ccubed.com.au Andrew I think they are $550-600 pair. Mine cost me $1100 And I will probably not use them Front bar is best to get off Yahoo japan. Mine cost me 35000yen approx $900 landed in Melbourne and then freight to Brisbane. Was complete bar, lower skirt, mesh badge and indicators. Do not buy one without the lower skirt as they cost a fortune new ($800-900) and are impossible to get s/hand here. Bonnet from $500 upwards s/hand. Non zenon headlights $500 pair upwards.

Full GP Sports kit

Andrew at CCubed will be providing a full kit for the conversion once it is all sorted out on Brycey's car. I had my Masa guards copied by DMD and CCubed bought the first set of copies. Since then they have had a fair bit of rework to fit perfect, to the point where I am considering doing away with my genuine Masa guards and get a new set from CCubed. The kit CCUbed will be providing, will include all the brackets to suit using the stagea radiator support, unlike my conversion where I used a R34 support to get that factory look. The parts you listed are the obvious parts, but depending which way you choose to go there are a alot of smaller parts needed. On my setup I used all factory R34 GTR parts including bonnet hinges, catch, catch support, reo, headlight brackets, the coolite on the top of reo ($150 alone), all the front bar braces and rubbers. All these parts add up to over $1500 alone. I also used a genuine R34 alloy bonnet (ie no ripples if fibreglass) and plastic front bar and skirt for durability. CCubed kit will be using the stagea hinges and bonnet catch, make a fibreglass reo and brackets, fibreglass bonnet and front bar so the cost should be alot less in the end. CCubed also has a stagea aswell which will end up probably the best stagea in OZ, both in looks and power when finished. VQ4.1det V8 turbo, R34 carbon front etc. Hope that helps

I think it could be done. I have converted my car to manual and fitted a handbrake. The hardest think would be to modify the auto console to suit the auto shifter and handbrake Attached is a pic of a auto console of a car in japan that has been modified to suit a manual. It shows there is enough room to fit the handbrake in front of the storage compartment which is the main thing. On a manual console the storage compartment is shorter to allow for drink holders, as the in dash ones on auto cars, hit your hand with a manual gearbox when changing gears. Do not try and get a manual console and modify it as they hardly existing s/hand and cost over $800 new. A brand new handbrake and mounting bracket will cost you approx $200. Also attached is manual console for your reference

Brycey, I think I have already sent you this photo before, but it's worth posting again.

Here is a pic of my old car
