Hey guys me and my brother were just talking about his next car, he has 2 to chhose from and he feels a lil stuck as he wants em both lol so i thought id post it up in here to see what other ppl rekon...

he has the choice between:

1 - r33 GTST Series 2 manual, black, full body kit and 18" deep dished rims, lowered, power fc, front mount, exhaust, boostd (not sure how much psi its running), pod filter...and cant remember what else...

or

2 - Manual Stagea GTR engine twin turbo (sorry dnt no the proper name 4 this model LOL :D), lowerd, deep dish rims, pearl white spray job, full body kit, exhaust, brembo brakes...i think thats all lol

too bad i dnt have piks ;)

well, u know what i would pick.

especially an autech 260RS...mmmm

i'd go the R33 just coz i'm not a fan of wagon volvos :)

right....

stagea definitely.

r33s are like arseholes.... (just stirring, Al!!)

lol :)

Wagons may look gay but trust me, f**kin awesome, best ever young person car :laugh:

yes ;) but not gay

but, id definatly take a Stagea over an R33. only becoz im sick of r33's, and you dont see many Stageas floating around. and if he/she is a P-Plater, then thats a bonus in my eyes.

#3 MOPED FTW!!!!

Didnt Alex say his car was around 1750kg's?

That number sits in my head for some reason. And thats pretty hefy.

FARK that!!! May as well buy a Falcodoor :w00t:

And people call 33's whales :blink:

JVP: I have notice that you have avoided answering the "how heavy are Stagea's?" question... :rofl:

sorry, i didnt see the question asked.

the rego sticker says 1680kg tare, i dunno if thats correct. but its heavy. but i didnt buy it for it to be a lightweight track car. doesnt bother me how heavy it is.

and i dont see the volvo in a stagea, nor does my family, workmates and friends.

someone enlighten me....

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
