Oh well, may as well add my asshole (I mean opinion) to the thread.

I looked seriously at one of these, I mean I could buy one for half the cost of my stag. The again, you can buy most Mitsubishi's at half the price of a decent car. Just 'cos it has a similar spec doesn't mean it's the same. I would never dare to compare the mitsubishi build quality with that of Nissan. Besides, that the AYC is REALLY expensive when it goes wrong. And I have never liked the idea of a transverse engined 4WD. It kinda makes it seem like an afterthought IMO. As for the front end...... some people reckon it looks shark like. I reckon it looks like a pussy car. I know the Stagea is heavier, but when I saw poor robs front end ripped off the green machine, without the rest of the car being damaged, well that did it for me...... I don't think anything but the stag woudl have survived that, nor Rob. The fact that the shell has a built-in roll cage, and the ATESSA is freakin awsome. I cant get mine to even spin a wheel in the wet, not even on a corner, (wearing 245 x 18's). When we first got it I was hesitant to let my wife drive it as it had 280hp..... now I woudln't let her drive anything else. I know that she is in one of the safest cars made. (Hmmmm is it starting to sound like a Volvo ad)!! As for the sound of the Turbo spool... I still find myself looking in the mirror thinking I have a cop up my arse!! LOL It sounds like a siren. I have owned 3 Mitsi's and in a word they are good cheap cars, but they loose their value fast. The Legnum's aren't in the Stagea's league.

Anyway who wants to own bloody car that sounds like a vegetable!! :laughing-smiley-014:

Oh.......well............a vegetarian?

Seriously, I saw a lot of these wagons in NZ on a not so recent recent trip before I discovered "NISSAN" & (never having seen them before), I thought they were a really cool wagon, had potential even, compared to the others getting around starting with F & C & T. Just my 2 bobs worth. :D

This is a "What you love about your Stagea" thread NOT a "lets argue like little children about which is better, Stageas or Legnums?" thread.

You've had your fun, and now it stops please, dont make me bring out the hairy mod stick.

Keep posts ON TOPIC!

What I love about my Stagea.

a) it is a crapload better looking than a mitsu Legnum

b) it handles better than a WRX wagon

c)It absorbs wrx's with my whole family on board and no one got hurt

i heard stagea's strangle kittens.

Thats funny........... :laughing-smiley-014:

what also got me about mine when I first got it was the centre console, how it opens up from both the passenger and drivwers side. Took a little while to figure out how to remove the lid completely but yeah.................thought it was a cool idea.

Mine's got the s2 console in it, so mine is like that too - it's tops! Confuses quite a few people, but it's so handy at the same time - makes it easier to see inside of.

    • Hi all,   was wondering what are the best add on side skirts for the n1 spats. I have a front lip by top secret right now which I want to even out in height.    if nothing is good out there might just get a top secret carbon hood.    added a recent photo of my engine bay for viewing pleasure. Coming along slowly just taking a while in Hong Kong to get all the parts. Next up is a titanium custom intake for my hks turbos.   thanks 
    • I don't know of anything specialist about the Stagea and pulling it's CVs, but the ones I've worked on, are all damn easy. Nothing "hard" at all, not even anything really technical or needing any crazy knowledge or precision. Have a Google as you straight up might be able to buy decent replacement CVs/axles for the Stagea. 
    • I didn't realise you used to work at a place that does tuning! I know while I'm putting the Subaru back together it'll need a remap, but I'm pondering how easy it'd be to do logging at a track day. I've got an Innovative LM-1, and am pondering if I get a new O2 for it, or what a decent Wideband (standalone) sensor and controller is worth that I can log (And either ECUFlash or ECUEdit might support). I was searching for hiring a dyno for DIY tuning but looks like only 2WD dynos can be hired at the moment and I need 4WD
    • Dropped her down and rolled her out onto the driveway for a much needed wash.  Jacked her back up this morning and managed to get another 1L of oil into the trans and bolted the tailshaft back in.  Replaced the FP sensor last week and checked for any other leaks. All looks good so far. Just need to wait for my mate to come over now and get it started.
    • Looked at ConceptZ HKS exhaust i just find $1000 shipping sounds crazy. and that was USD so $4400+ after AUD conversion thats the exhaust and shipping. just seems crazy is there anyone else in Aus that sells any of these exhausts?what about these will they fit they say up to 2016 though mines a 2020 just wondering if they will fit?
