That's sweet as, i'll take 7!

as for a written off stagea, i don't even know where to start looking for one, probably have to import it hey?

A bit late

A damaged Stagea sold last week in Perth thru the Fowles auctions

Apparently Mr-GTR (Steve) has some body shells??

wonder who bought it, i want some bits and pieces from the interior mainly, any ideas who owns it now?

It was a reapirable write-off

Needed a new front, was not that bad

It had over a 140,000km and was dark green stock

It will probably end up back on the road

A guy in the WA section owned it, but the insurance company wrote it off.

You could try some of the bigger wreckers in Perth, if it went for wrecking they would be able to find who has it.

It went thru yesterday

I thought about buying it put the R34 front on it

But wrong colour and too high K's for me.

The auction centre may tell you who bought it, but probably only if it was bought by a wrecker.

My local nissan dealer was nice enough to get me a part yesterday. one of my hooks that the lugage divider hooks onto in the boot had snapped off when i had stuff in the back. only set me back $15.20 for a new one. he's a bit of a import fan, so i think he likes to help us out when he can.

The first photoshop effort looks ok, whereas trhe Crewman style is just plain wrong - needs a rear canopy, trherefore might as well stay a wagon!

The green-beast Stagea with R34 front looks HORN!!! Mind you a lot of ppl wouldnt know it was derived from a Stagea wagon & not a R34 sedan.

I'll save ya the trouble... as you may already know, one of the boys at J-Spec picked it up to do an R34 frontend conversion. It arrives in Melbourne on Tuesday.

Green's his favourite colour too... he almost painted the widebody kakimoto in lamborghini green :(.

IF he gets around to doing anything with it. He has a reputation of collecting half done cars :) If he pulls the engine out then I've already got dibs on it :D

The price... put it this way... I was thinking of paying the price, just to pull the engine loom and ECU out and put into my GTS4. By the time its all repaired properly though it'll cost the same as importing one from Japan.

I'm gonna be organising for your guards to be copied down here, and we'll get the rest of the kit from japan (and copied for you). That way everyone's got a complete kit. We were hoping to coax Ernie to give us a copy, but it seems he's sold SkylineImports to some other guy.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
