Hi guys,

ive heard that there is around 2 compliance places in perth that do stageas, but ive also heard that they are not exactly the most helpful of organisations.

(ben fom j-spec imports advised me of this)

i was just wondering if any WA stagea owners can give me an insight as to what places they used for compliance and how it went...

just so i can avoid any pricks with compliance.

Cheers

Kieran

note - referring to stagea rs four v/s compliance

I had my stagea complied in Perth less than 12months and i would definately NOT RECOMMEND who i used...they cost a fortune, they were slow, they were rude, they were definately not the most helpful people, not to mention that they run my car out of fuel which caused big problems and they couldnt care less!!!..They were also the only WA compliance place at that point in time!

If you want to know my story ill chuck you a PM as i cant name them on here for rules of SAU...but i would definately be looking else where instead of using these people!

Thanks for the PMs and reply guys.

It really is appreciated.

To me, it seems that the best decision to make is to have the car complied over east by a recommeded business, and have it shipped/freighted out to perth.

J-Spec advised me that the compliance market is far more competitive there,

and seeing how they can freight for around $500 to perth (due to the govt rebate) i probably wouldnt be anymore out of pocket than forking out an unjustified amount for a shitty perth compliance.

I assume that compliance over east would still enable the car to pass the pits over here, right?

Cheers

Kieran

quite easily

you won't be the first to do it that way and you sure won't be the last

good luck with it and looking forward to seeing yet another join the ranks in WA

we are getting ours complianced in QLD , so cant YET comment on workmanship

but basically we got ours complianced in QLD and shipped over for CHEAPER than we could get it complinaced locally

got the J-spec page for your car so we can look?

did you get the 50billion photos they take too?

alrite that sounds like a good idea then.

i spose brissy compliance would be the best...boats get there first, so its gonna get the ball rolling sooner.

especially considering alot of people have done it without any hassles.

cheers for that guys!

PS the link was taken down so no pics atm sorry

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
