definately looks like a base model RS four. But im inclined to think its a 25t X Four.

This model came with wood grain, optional privacy glass but is supposed to have a front spoiler and fog lamps.

You may want to check it out.

May be the 97 version, just an option i guess. Could be the ARX style before they started badgin thtem as such, was what i was implying. Definitely looks like the soft-roader version. Maybe the lip was an optional extra that everyone but errr.... your cars previous owner opted for? Same as the glass? But for some reason the dude couldnt live without his woodgrain.

Jays is a 96, same colour, and has the lip and privacy glass, badges as RSfour, mine is 97, same colour, and also has the lip and privacy glass, so its not a year-model issue.

Never seen woodgrain though...

Yours looks just like the brochure car, which is also badged RSfour, but has a grille that noone here has. (again - til i get mine this week...)

Haha nice. Well it could be worse - ive had the handle 'qikstagea' for more than a year and mine is probably the slowest on here hey. in a few days ill show you wat your stagea looks like with a Nismo bodykit and 18s hey. I get it back from the shop soon.

Did you find out much about the history of your stagea? as far as why yours is the only one to surface on SAU without the front lip? Hey have a look under you front bar to see if there was ever a lip bolted on there ie are there bolt holes etc... very curios. yours is a one of a kind, dale.

I will be getting it on Tues this week so I will know for sure, but when I went to have a look at it, there were no obvious holes etc from where it might have been removed, but don't quote me on it yet.

The really weird thing about the car is the fact that it has been in the country since 2003. It was actually the 3rd Stagea to be complianced in WA.

More details as they come to hand.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By S1_C34 · Posted

      I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      By jez NF · Posted

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
