Hi,

got a pic of it the day i bought it its not near as fancy as some of the ones on here!post-46440-1211880030_thumb.jpg

Time, patience, planning and money are the key ingredients to building a nice car and you've got a good starting base there. :)

Wow, snap with the bluebird... I had a series 2 wagon before my stagea, although I only had mine for about 8 years. I second the longevity of the bluebird, it takes a hell of a beating and keeps going (I did a twin SU carby + extractors conversion and it was going better when I finished with it then it was when I got it :() but I was in the same boat, I just didn't have time to keep fixing it, and I was getting jack of how much money I was putting into it.

Go the stagea, it's one hell of a trade up :cheers:

Got my Stagea today & been driving around the GC all day. Such an awesome car to drive, although filling it up on premium sucked at $92 for a full tank from near empty!! But still well worth it.

Awesome stuff, congratulations Adam :cheers: I remember that feeling... was about 3 months ago lol :(

About the $92... you say it is worth it (and I think it is too, paying say $20-30 more per week to drive such an awesome car), but the question is I guess.... will we both still think so in, say, 6-12 months?

Just sold the skyline and bought a stagea a couple of weeks ago from japan. its currently floating in the water somewhere between adelaide and Japan :)

its a '98 S2 RS4 V Dayz Edition, in pearl white.

has minimal mods:

Pod

Exhaust

Coilovers

17" wheels

cant wait for it to land here in adelaide... and get complied of course

Hi all, finally got my Stagea :) so I can introduce myself and say hello. My wife and I have picked ourselves up a '98 RS Four S series 2. It has allready been named the Banana :( due to the fact that it is bright yellow. We picked it up locally (Hervey Bay, QLD) as a private sale and I think it is one of only 2 or 3 locally. We also have a '98 SSS Pulsar N15 which will now be my wifes car when she gets her licence. Although after driving it the last day and a bit, I think I may still take the Pulsar to work quite a bit with how fuel is. The guy that we bought it off has a few extra's to give us like a nice new Front mount and a full stereo, has TEIN coilovers in a box in the garage that he took out because his wife thought it to hard of a ride, set of standard rims and we found 2 Japanese CD's in the back of the front seats. Bit strange driving around listening to songs in Japanese. Will be starting to detail it tomorrow provided the rain goes away. Have started searching these forums for things to do with it and the wife is allready shaking her head at me telling me that we can't get anything for it... Time will tell. Well that's about it.

Dave and Jess :D

Nice one, Dave and Jess, and welcome to the Stagea family!

99 S2 Yellow Dayz Neo Design. Never seen one before mine! What the hell is it?? Can't find it on Google!

Carbon Fibre everywhere! Dash, Head lights, flares, spoiler, rear window trims, console, intrument panel all Carbon Fibre.

3.5 Inch exhaust, Coil overs, 17's (white). Car looks pretty trick!!

We need to have a Sydney Cruise! How can we organise one?

Hi guys. Just joined not long ago. I am driving around in a 2003 M35 Pearl white Stagea RS Four Autech with 20inch wheels, dark windows, lowered with a 3inch exhaust system. I have to say its the best value for money car I have ever had. Also the fuel economy is impressive.

    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
    • When you looking to buy injectors?? I could possibly sell you my 1d1700s for decent price. Done little work I just need bigger again 😫 
    • Is a dirty cheese eating surrender monkey in drag.
