Stagea Build In Japan!

[mitchy_]

a stock rb25 will handle about 350-380hp safely, any more and you will start to lose a ringland or two.

depends how you drive it too..

i know of one in WA making ~400rwhp, but its not driven very hard, its barely driven at all.

whereas ive seen other rb25's let go at 330rwhp..

hell, mine died at 300hp, but thats another story..

[yokotas13]

well, im workign on finding a spare rb25, hell they are only 300-500 bucks

Hot stagea. Thanks for posting.

How does it handle for a big wagon? (Say, compared to a r33 or something?)

[yokotas13]

well, right now horribly

when im done and dial in the spring rates to help with body roll in addition to the correct rear sway bar when someone figures out what car to use it from since its obviously not a GTR rear sway (200 dollar lesson)

i think it will handle well once i get everything done.

[Tangles]

perhaps import a Whiteline rear swaybar from Sydneykid or Whiteline direct?

very very high quality piece of kit

Im using the whiteline front and rear adjuystable swaybars, whiteline bushes and pineapple rings, Bilstein shocks with height-lowering circlips with standard stagea springs.

very comfy and very very grippy. great suspn package and can be lowered by a fair bit. mine sits a tad high but thats my choice (2metres tall) due to picky police etc.

[yokotas13]

im going to see what i can do about whiteline from the US and have it shipped here. shouldnt be too much

But as an update

trying to research which rear toe rods are the same. If i had a copy of FAST i could do it myself.

I ordered 8000k dual beam HIDs shoudl be here next week

Bought some puddle lights

bought two 12s and an amp for a temporary setup until i fiberglass my setup and order my real equipment

got an alignmet today, its horribley still toe out in the rear, but since its been adjusted camber wise and as much toe as possible, i have almost 2 inches of clearance between shock and wheel. no more rubbing issues i see, but i ned to roll the rear fenders a tad more.

the kit never got ordered by my "friend" so im debating if i want to order it through someone else, or buy more go fast and handle fast parts.

i have yet to decide

[yokotas13]

your HIDs are wayyy to blue. your going to get a ticket as soon as an off base cop sees them.

[yokotas13]

im thinking its going ot be more of a pain in the booty.

[yokotas13]

OK

you can drift an automatic Stagea with the front shaft taken out

its crappy becuase its like an open diff or something, but it happens

I make an entire o2 housing back exhaust

i need to redo the part that goes under the subframe becuase i ran out of time and used a prebent section from an R32 exhaust...so ill do that next week or something

im still waiting on my tranny to get here

[yokotas13]

[Silverback]

WTF! Tell me thats a gee up

[yokotas13]

its boredome

im waiting ot get my new turbo in

once that happens i can order all my pipe for intercooler pipes and exhaust

i want to order it all at once to save on shipping

i found a place for 5.00 a foot for mild steel pipes

will be using a flowmaster muffler with two lone tips out the back
