I like it Rudi, something different/unique. Do you have a black roof? I couldn't tell from pic but it would look mad with wrapped gloss black roof

yep, wrapped black gloss roof, thats why i got the bonnet plus the vent to let the heat out. :yes:

All you need is a big black f*ck off takeros wing with a whale front bar and you'll be set!! :D

Also, needs moar nismo.

Looks great! The grille needs some doing though.

cheers, maybe a mixed grille and a beer? LOL :cheers:

Took the stag camping, had a bit of trouble getting into the spot, shes a little low and stiff. Had her balanced on 2 wheels. Defiantly raising her next time...

So I joined this forum specifically to come here and tell you all what beautiful Stageas you all have. I have never read through 112 pages of pure jealousy before!! I only wish I Could have a Stagea here in the US. But until I find a way to get one, I shall just live vicariously through all and contribute what I can!

Cheers!

Are there no avenues for a personal import?

Honestly my friend,

I wouldn't be sure where to start as far as what I would need to bring one over, I know the US has the most obsurd import regulations. My R34 that I had was a complete nightmare, and as such I was never able to drive it for more than a year without have to re-register it to skate around emissions requirements, if it doesn't have the "correct" diagnostic port, they won't even test it. And also for me as of late, money has been very tight. I found one in Canada, a Black Autech 260RS. I would kill to own it, but they want A LOT for it. so until I find one cheap enough that I can afford to buy it, I figured I can just share My Stagea love here!! :) not unless you all want to send me one piece by piece through the post :P LOL

here's the link for the one I found, http://www.tyeeimports.com/jdm-cars-for-sale/japanese-import-car.asp?ProductID=897&Title=1998 -Nissan-Stagea Autech 260RS'>http://www.tyeeimports.com/jdm-cars-for-sale/japanese-import-car.asp?ProductID=897&Title=1998 -Nissan-Stagea Autech 260RS They are asking $13K Canadian, roughly $12K US. A little rich for my blood, plus US banks would never give a loan for a car that old :P

You have a slightly skewed point of view on the pricing of the Stagea.

If a 260rs could be had for that kind of money in Australia; wow. Double it; and then some.

Oh My! Well Then I need to stop being so poor!! :P I didn't know they were that costly in Australia!! Even more respect to you guys for working so hard!!

Everything is relative in each different country, not judging your own financial situation.

Welcome to the forum, it will be interesting to see whether more Stageas make it to the USA given the changes to import regs.

Ànd we would kill for the pricing you guys get on you're cars!

Luxo cars often cost double if not more in Aust compared to the US.

I know I'd jump into a E55/63 wagon if I was over there!

    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof
