Hello All.

I have just ordered a 97 Stagea through Prestige Motorsport. Check it out on http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/modul...hp?StockID=4102

First plan is to drop the suspension a couple of inches, install a better stereo and then work on a few minor mods to the engine (intake and exhaust mainly).

I will have to catch up with those of you in Perth once the car arrives - due in December.

Nice.... dayz bodykit with the optional Momo steering wheel ! mmmmmmmmm

Good luck with it all.

Suspension - look at the Group Buy thru Sydneykid. Bilstein shocks, Whiteline springs and swaybars.

With the exhaust, dont settle for cat-back, definately go turboback, 3inch.

Now the wait begins, hey. hehehehe

Thanks guys.

I have been thinking about buying one for a while but couldnt be bothered with the whole changing cars trouble. When i got the update from Prestige with this wagon i jumped at it and bought it. Yes - the wait is a killer - only another 6 weeks - i hope. I have already read up about the group buy and am keen for the bilsteins and lowered springs then i will follow up with the sway bars etc.

I was going to import an evo7 but the wife was not as keen so when i said i am buying a family( 180kw! ) wagon of for less than half the price she was blown away. Anyway, at least that leaves some cash for mods.

    • Jump into the wasteland. Plenty of random posting/chatting going on in there.
    • I did not go to GTR Festival. It's quite a long drive and the car wasn't dialed in yet. I also wanted to see how the racing portion went before going. From what I can tell the classes were not heads up, index, or bracket - just whoever has the quickest ET wins. Never heard of that sort of thing before and maybe some people like it but it's not my cup of tea. I don't suspect I'll go if that is how the racing is done. I did get the car out three times and had issues each time. Some were my error - haven't raced the car in over two years - and others were parts. Had trouble getting the clutch to slip correctly and remembering how it was set up in the Haltech. Broke some drivetrain parts as well that couldn't be fixed in a couple days to get back out. Season definitely didn't end the way I wanted but at least the bearings are still fine! Not a fleck of material in the filter. Really hoping next year is the year I can actually test this car properly. 
    • find it funny everyone claims different fuel chains, do different things with their fuel blah blah blah. We don't have that many fuel terminals in Australia. The fuel tanker trucks drive into the terminal, fill up, and drive directly to the service station and dump out. The majority of fuel you get, is coming out of the same terminals. The variation is actually at the individual service stations and how good their tanks are, as well as how much turn over they actually have. Older fuel stations, that haven't had their tanks replaced are going to end up with the worst fuel. Also a lot of older stations have shit design, and shit maintenance, and end up with more water absorption into the tank. This is when you then get a bad batch of fuel. Other shit things happen, like tanker drivers have a f**k up, and starting to unload the wrong compartment on their truck into the wrong tank. 
    • Yeah go with that one
