Seeing everyone talking about the bad things with their Stagea made me think what people actually like about them. Pick only four though

1. Im the only one in my estate of 300 houses that has one.

2. Its a bit of a sleeper.

3. You can fit anything inside

4. The looks I get in it everyday.

That is all.

1. I can punch the accelerator and get instant responce, or drop it down an gear and mash the accelerator and be thrown back in my seat everytime.

2. It's such a beautiful car to drive, corners like it is on rails.

3. It is versatile. Can fit 2 kids bikes, 2 eskies full of food and drink, and 5 adults and still get up and go like it's coming out of a slingshot.

4. It looks like a volvo, so even when I have had the BOV on full atmo, (wake the dead setting) right next to a cop car, I still have not had anywhere near the attention I got when I did own my R33.

1) I absolutely love the look of it (especially the headlights they are horn)

2) Its a massive sleeper

3) Its comfortable to drive everyday, extremely versatile, and still quick its not very often you find a wagon that has everything our Stagea's have and still have the performance we have

4) Its not a Skyline haha (no offence to skyline owners lol) :ninja:

1. the handles that fold down the rear seats from the cargo area

2. reclining rear seats

3. electric tailgate closer

4. best seats I have ever sat in (in a wagon)

5. lack of road noise at just about any speed

6. ability to chop up idiot P platers in commodores

7. the confidence 4WD gives my wife

8. turbo surge *drools*

I am going to stop now ......... ;)

All the above

The Colour, (Bayside blue)

The leather

The HALF WOOD steering wheel

Auto lights (xenon)

Electric seats (can't wait for winter to try the warmers)

CRUISE CONTROL

NEO engine

Tiptronic

4WD (another reason to welcome winter)

Body kit

Doesn't drip any oil

Climate control.

It's very unusual

The amount of people that actually read the badges and still shrug their shoulders.

The most comfortable and coolest car I've ever owned ;)

1. I love that there arent solid engine mounts

2. I love that it doesnt leak....yet

3. I love the torque over an SR

4. Electric seats

5. Interior design, very european

6. two sunroofs so i can be a video car

7. great acoustics for stereo

8. the lack of woodgrain

1) I absolutely love the look of it (especially the headlights they are horn)

2) Its a massive sleeper

3) Its comfortable to drive everyday, extremely versatile, and still quick its not very often you find a wagon that has everything our Stagea's have and still have the performance we have

Ah!, but it IS a Skyline. It was built in Factory 5, like All Skys, even going back to the Prince.

I love:

- The room

- 4WD

- Not everyone has one (although the other day there was mine and 3 others parked at work! All RS4's!)

- Build quality

- The look, with a nice kit and wheels.

- Price. They are fairly cheap in NZ compared to other wagons. They aren't 'cool' like Subarus or Legnums so are about 3 grand cheaper.

I think it is just a good all round wagon and the +'s outweigh the -'s overall.

  • 1 month later...

The fact I can fit 6 person tent, camp gear, bar fridge, double air matresss, all the food and drinks, 2 dogs (Cattle dog and Labrador) and still travel in comfort. Also with all that gear, it pulled up any hill with ease!!!

Got a few people asking about the car...they are like WTF is this. :laughing-smiley-014:

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
