Hi all

My Stagea has arrived in Adelaide complied and ready to go - putting it through regency this Wednesday.

I'm sure Pawley and I will have lots of questions in the near future, but look forward to meeting more Stagea owners in the future.

What a tuff car though!!! I am really impressed now that I have one in the flesh.

Mel

:huh:

Nice car!!

I've also recently bought one ('99 S2) - I live in Adelaide but bought it from a dealer on the Gold Coast.

Looks very similar to yours (white) but doesn't have the grey strip round the sides and back. That grey strip actually looks pretty cool.

Good luck with it - and enjoy - they're an awesome car!!!

Congrats, Mel!

Good to hear you're happy with the purchase, and you'll see it only gets better as you notice all the little detail things in the car that make the ownership experience great. Stuff like the little storage compartments and the extra cigarette lighter socket in the boot, the fold-down seats with the handy handles(!), multi-adjustable driver's seat, reclining rear seats, etc.

Did yours come optioned with the luggage blind and net, and self-closing boot?

Hi Mel,

Congrats on the stagea

great car perfect for the growing family and import lover

you'll be pleased to know your old baby (R32) has had alot of attention lavished on it.

we just recently had the car dyno'd after replacing the box and making a few other adjustments and the car is putting out quite some impressive power now

Enjoy your new car, as I love mine

Hi Krissy - didn't know you had a stagea as well! Gee we must have the same taste in cars!!!

Glad to hear my old girl is doing well, I do miss that car immensly, what figures did it pull if you don't mind me asking? The most I got out of it was 178rwkw running at standard boost but with the intercooler and exhaust.

sorry forgot to reply to the rest

The exhaust had to be replaced from the cat bak as it was full of carbon and the cat was blocked,restricting the flow. We also put a 25 box in. We retarded the ignition timing put my old boost guage on and bleed 10psi into it and it pulled 203rwkw on the dyno (272hp). Were planning for later on down the track upgrading to an aftermarket computer, but for the time being were happy with it.

Don't worry she's in good hands..

Good luck with your stagea

top choice in car

203 really! that's awesome! had no idea there was any problem with the exaust let alone the fact that the cat was blocked that's not good - glad you found it looks like it was causing some serious restrictions. I had the boost up for about a month when i first bought the car and it loved it!

      There really needs to be an ODBII item that can play intake noise through speakers, synchronized with your current RPM and TPS%.

      So, we now have a straight and clean boot lid inbound and the car goes in for paint, again, on Wednesday, and will be ready on Friday, all ready to get cams and stuff on Monday  And by straight and clean.....I mean a brand new OEM one that cost..... $1300....😪 Sadly there's no clean undamaged used soft top version available, plenty for the power retractable hard top versions though, which is arse and makes Mark have the sads I could have waited longer, until a NC sort top boot lid eventually turned up, but I'm sick of waiting and said fark it and made it rain cash, meh In other naturally aspirated news, one of the guys at work brought in his old Corola which had a 4AGE in it, really nice clean car with lots of mods, including ITB's, man that things induction noise sounds sick with all of the dorts that makes you smile......maybe the NC needs ITB's, yeah, basically for the noise they make, but they're pretty expensive, but, they sound so damn good I may bring this up when I drop the car up on Monday, and by may, I mean I will🤣🤑🤪🤣
