Same here, had planned to go, but had an outside family emergency.... Sound like you had a great day out.

Howdy all, proud new owner of a 1999 Series 2 Stagea RSFour. Very happy with the car thus far (doesn't have the huge punch of my car "yet", but the stagea is the wife's daily at the moment) But overall very impressed. Finding a few extra starches and dents as you do that you didn't see before, but nothing huge. Took me a few days to work out the Touch screen Climate control and TV (all in Japanese). First one we saw with factory Nissian Xanavi thingo in dash that wasn't in a M35. No TV comes up (guessing as it NTSC-J) and the Radio only goes upto 90FM but worked out that the CD Stacker in the boot didn't work with the CD Changer button on the Xanavi, but worked under 88.3FM (found this out this morning) SATNAV button doesn't bring anything up, but read somewhere the unit can be flashed? There was a TV/DVD switch under the dash, thats not there now after the car was complied as well as this Credit Card Toll thing that was on the dash when we first looked at the car. Everything seems mechanically fine with the vehicle, but we did notice a loud tick last night and today. It's coming right around or under the front right hand wiper motor? On idle it only ticks like once every 8/10 secs as I was out side the car with the bonnet up and found where is was coming from. As inside the car sounded like it was coming for behind the dash. While driving 60kms and under ticks more often, like every 5 secs, under acceleration or driving above 80kms it doesnt do it. So was going to take the mesh of the wiper engine cover and have a look. The only other thing to work out is the 4WD light I've seen coming up on the dash with the car is in on accessories mode (when all the lights come on before you turn the car on) I know were the Stabilizer button is (one with the 4 wheels of the car and an S in the middle) not sure what it does, but know how to turn it on and off. But was told awhile ago by the guy that tunes my TX3 that his Stagea RSFour was stuck in RWD (and it does have front shafts and RSFour on the front grill). So assumed the 4WD system can be turned on and off, as I've seen the 4wd light on the dash. So was unsure if the car is in 4wd mode of not, as the light goes out when the car starts? Wife is looking forward for me doing a few extra 'upgrades the car' have about 2K to play with. Be it wheels, exhaust and new front bar. Personally thinking about the Boost Mode for the RB25DET Neo in which I've read somewhere on the forums awhile ago that you can cut a wire and the boost comes on earlier? I'm not much of an expert on RB engines, and unsure what is safe with the Stock ECU and Boost? (as the neo runs high comp?) I was thinking of taking the Greddy Profec TYPE-S out of my car (as I very rarely use low boost and have issues holding 25psi with it at the moment) And hooking it up to the Stagea with A Rising rate Malpassi and a Front Mount with 3" System...? Any thoughts on that would be appreciated. Well I look forward to hanging around, and asking lots of questions, if you'll have me that is. Cheers Chris.

Newly Stagea owner, wife, myself and our little one would be up for a day out Anyone know what button turns the 4wd on and off, i've seen the light come on when I turn the acessories on, then goes off when the car starts. So unsure its the 4wd is on or off Apologies for the off topic first post, just exited about our new car
