  1. I'm keen, I've been looking for suspension for ages (other than SK's Group Buy and Tein Super Wagons). Are they adjustable like Teins?? As I said i'm definitly keen - and if you're coming down to Melbourne than its a bonus
  2. hey Reuben, Got a couple of questions for ya? 1. what was the ride like with them on - also do you have a pic of your car with them on 2. whats the condition of them 3. do they fit S2 Stageas 4. what's ride height on it
  3. from memory, you'll need straight pipe only...The stagea exhaust system is fairly straight and has minimal to no bends at all. what other parts of the exhaust do you have I'm considering doing this myself...do you have any other parts other than the dump pipe
  4. You'll find the angled ones don't quite fit properly and most likely you need to trim the fascia to make it fit. fergo308 - while the defi dim gauge set is good - the major problem is that you only get two temps and a pressure....nothing else...I've got boost, oil temp and volts. Goldzilla's idea is pretty much the best way to fit 3 gauges on there (i've got mine the setup like that but the other way around - gauges on the bottom and stereo above.
  5. I saw one of these getting on the freeway from Dynon Rd a couple of nights ago - I go WTF is that?? very sneaky indeed - imagine pulling over and pinching it just for kicks...there would be someone sitting in a car nearby so something like that doesn't happen
  6. Hmm.. I brought my din insert from egauges.com it was about 20 bucks US and fits ok (depends on where you put it) - I've got mine at the bottom (so climate control, stereo then gauges)....you will need to file/sand down the holes a little bit more to fit the gauges (52mm) and if you are going to put it in the middle slot then you will need down sand down the back of it as it extends a little bit...i'll get a pic up on here - my gauges stick out a from the facia (I don't want to cut up the surround to flush mount it It's really much on what you want to do and what size you want to go?? Polished Aluminum would be nice but the shine in the sun would be annoying and potentially dangerous
  7. I've had my pearl white stagea for 9 months and nothing (yet) has happen to it - My dad's commonwhore gets the garage and i'm parked behind it. I live in Gladstone Park and nothing much happens where i live and we're got alot of worked up cars around the area. Of course I have the mean streets of Broadmeadows next to me. I love the "the western suburbs is <insert statement here>" because it happens in their own backyard as well no matter where it is. My ex-gf's car (a RAV4) had its windows smashed out the front of her house and looked around the street and a few cars were smashed (even a brand new Merc E55 that was parked behind a gate and had motion lights) and this is in Hawthorn Still the best was a guy so dumb enough to try and break into a mates R34 GTR and were sitting out the front porch of the house...
  8. The MP01 is not bad. I got the P-EX12 one (it's the 3rd one on the top row in the barrell type muffler).. i got the JJRbellmouth and Magnaflow cat...just need to get a the cat through to resonator to muffler made up
  9. The main question is where can you get them from?? I've got a rs4v but finding suspension a right royal pain. the SK package is great but my problem is where to get them from other than from SK (mainly due to he's too busy to respond to PM's) I don't really want to get coilovers (due to personal choice and from a roadworthy standpoint) but if worse comes to worse, then I would have to get coilovers. Have you had a read on the suspension thread - could find some answers in there or maybe ask more questions and give you a headache
  10. Either Madden 09, TNA iMPACT!, Grid or Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights on my 360 Crysis, COD4 and Half-Life Series (Orginal, EP1 & EP2) on my PC I've got too many games! LOL
  11. I just brought a new gaming rig and installed games i couldn't play...It all comes down to what you are in to In My Opinion Must Have: Crysis COD4 The Orange Box (5 games in 1 box great value) If you love driving games Race Driver Grid rFactor Race 07 or GTR Evolution RTS: Supreme Commander World In Conflict C&C 3 Company of Heroes
  12. Well from the looks of it, they are going back to "somewhat old school". back to open world racing...do what you like which made most wanted good and carbon ok but i'm hoping its a lot bigger map with a difference in location and terrain. BTW Maggie Q looks nice in this..hope the storyline is good
  13. yeah i was lucky too mine were kept as well.. one thing to check as well is your fog lamps and see if they are connected - I think they are disconnected for complience as well
  14. what xforce muffler did you get??
  15. I Beleive the the cat you can use and defintely the jjr bellmouth fits (i'm getting that) but the catback exhaust system I beleive you can't - the bends are different. the Stagea Cat backs are pretty much straight whereas the R33 has a bend after the diff. Plus I don't think the R33 exhaust will reach all the way through. As I said this is my rough guess...so to answer your question - it can get expensive to modify your exhaust. best bet custom build it and sell the R33 exhaust
  16. I had a look at the ISC Coilovers - 12kg on the front and 10kg on the rears - that's sounds very heavy and stiff (IMO). The Tien superwagons are 4kg and 4kg. I'm no suspension expert. does it mean that the ISC will create a very stiff ride or is it the Tiens that will??
  17. Well I got a magnaflow cat. got it for $280. Now just gotta go to the exhaust place and get the cat-back made up. Xmetal - the reason I didn't get a X-Force 5 of my friends had their one collapse on them after 6 months. I'm going to go custom as I don't like cannon exhasuts (personal choice) and can't find a aftermarket dual tip exhaust (or maybe I haven't looked hard enough). I was thinking to go for a de-cat...but i guess i want to go for a sleeper look
  18. Heard too many horror stories about X-Force cats which has kinda put me off (then again people have them and not report any problems)
  19. does anyone know the part numbers for the springs and shocks??
  20. definately ATESSA bottle. I don't think that Stagea's (barring the 260RS) has HICAS
  21. yeah I would love to get a metalcat but there are none around and I have spoken to some exhaust places around my place there is a massive back order for these...they recommended me to go mangaflow (that's my second choice) or to wait (which I can't) If I can find a metalcat that I can get straight away then i'll buy one
  22. Hi guys, I've been slowly buying parts to upgrade my car I've got turbo (HKS GT2535), intercooler (Cooling Pro Stealth Series for R34), front pipe (JJR Bellmouth) Is a cat from a R33/R34 bolt straight on? I'm looking at a magnaflow 3inch cat that has been flanged already and want to that it will bolt straight on I'm going to custom the cat back (don't want a cannon tip and can't find what I want around) the last bit is the suspension - this is proving to be a nightmare...I don't know that the group buy is still going...if it's not going - that what options should I go for (don't want coilovers - too much hassles and I have read the suspension thread and made even more confused )
  23. Just Car Insurance $1150 premium $600 excess 26 years old - perfect driving record All Mods (which reminds me to add another one on there) agreed value $20k rating 1 not bad for my first car and first insurance
