I have had the car since May 2005 personally, where when I purchased, it was in 100% stock condition, so I know the entire history of this car from stock. As you can see about everything spent on this car, no corners have been cut with cheap modifications (bleed valves etc). Everything has been done once, and done right with better than expected results each time.

One thing that I am meticulous of is serving, with every 5,000km bringing around an oil/filter/spark plug change. This is something that was never missed, where I have all my old oil/plugs/filters as proof and receipts of purchases too.

The great thing about a Stagea is that you don’t have to give up performance cars just because you need the space. This car has more go than most and also leaves lots of space for carrying things around/towing etc. I have personally towed two cars on trailers, a 6x4 foot trailer around many times, and had up to 10 people in the car at once. So trust me, there is lots of space

Test rides (possibly even drives) welcome, located in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

Will ship the car interstate to anywhere in Australia at the expense of the buyer. Also, will provide a RWC with the car if the buyer is in Victoria

Reason for sale – Simple, I want a thrash around car. Wanting to buy a beaten up S13/Laurel/Cefiro for drifting. Will do part trade plus cash if the right car comes along.

Asking price: $20,000 including EVERYTHING listed above, nothing to be removed!

Contact me on <removed>, or PM

One final thing to note. I am avid member of the SAU Stagea forum (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/index.php?showforum=82) and also attend many SAUvic and NS events. If any references are required about this car, please just start a thread in the Stag section or NS VIC section.

The one thing about owning a Stagea, is that you become addicted and fall in love. Ask anyone who owns one and they will say the same thing. They are fabulous cars!

Just after having the S2 front fitted, picking it up from the panel beaters. Work performed by Luci and his crew at Melbourne F1 Panels in Fawkner. Feel free to call them and discuss the work, they know my car well (It sat there for 5 months!)

A little blacktop SR in tow. Easy work with the Stag.

Mocking up the TRUST FMIC

Driving around the week I popped one of my R34 GTT wheels' tyres. And yes, the rolling diameter was kept the same front and rear, thats why they are mismatched. Looks cool either way.

Driver/passenger interior. The speaker grills are off just for the moment, but obviously they are always on otherwise.

The rear boot area will be cleaned, the entire interior will be. Obviously this is a picture from daily usage of the car, so its not the cleanest.

Stealth engine bay. Black is the theme that I like to go with!

Car was just tuned last week to make 180awkw @ 12psi of boost. Was tuned on a hot(40)/humid(100%) day, but definatly goes much harder than before at night time!

KW at the fly wheel, well, Id expect around 25% losses via drivetrain and about another 10% due to the auto box, so about ~250kw.

Thing is, a stock Stagea makes ~125awkw, so mine is about 45% more than stock.

The car WILL make over 200awkw at 1 bar to 1.1 bar, I just need to buy a FPR and retune it (Or, for you to do it)

I will probably buy a FPR soon and retune it as I want to see what this beast can do before I sell it.

1/4 mile time, it ran a 14.2@100mph with ~150awkw at Heathcoate with a time slip to prove. I think it would do faster on not such hot days. The track was running pretty slow times that day (Example, R33 GTST's with exhaust/cooler/pod were doing mid 14's)

BUMP

Make me an offer if you think the price is too high.
