Yes, some series 2 Neo Stagea's do not have the tipronic gearbox

Cheap base model car. They are not very common.

I would not buy it for that reason

I just had a closer look. That car is a series 1 (black dash dials, not white), so it it would not have a tipronic anyway

But my last post is still correct, very few series 2 did not have tipronic either

Did some more searching

Here is another series 2 with No tipronic, but with black dials

So my second post was wrong about it being a series 1

Maybe some of the first series 2's, nissan was cleaning out the series 1 auto gearbox cupboard, until they swapped over to the tipronic gearbox?

Yeah - I have seen a very similar bastard child S2 tha had no triptronic. It did have the white faced gauges though, and it also had the Neo engine so I have no answers for you there. I can say that the one I saw I would still consider because it had a very unique level of trim and some very nice bits 'n pieces (Dayz bar, among others)

If you like the car then just evaluate it on its own merits, not wether it has everything a RS4 has. You may even save a few bucks on it and it would be a great base for a manual conversion later on.

hmm can we call it a S1.5 stagea? (joking).

I'm assuming it does still have the NEO engine?

but no transmission oil cooler? (guessing).

I cant imagine resale value of these models being any higher than a standard S1. Just my opinion though.

looks like a 25x series to me which did come with leather and wood satnav etc but black dash and no triptronic there was a red one on jpsec for about 12 months like it...............http://history.nissan.co.jp/STAGEA/PAGES/MC0831/index2.html

Mike is absolutley correct!

This is a 25(t) X FOUR with optional olive grey leather (heated) seats. (velour was standard)

It has the optional Momo Wood combi steering wheel

All the X & G series came only with the E-ATx box (non tiptronic)

This is NOT a prime edition.

Is it a 98 model....they seem to have different front grill compared to S1 and S2 versions. This may be the case for the car you are looking at. Pretty sure these ones do not have the NEO RB hence no tiptronic.

EDIT: Just saw post #6 about 2000 model.....there goes my theory blown out the door. :P

The grills with the bars in them are the lower-grade X- and G-spec models. This one below is a WH-C34 20G, which means it has an RB20DE and auto box. The series 1 version of the 20G didn't even have DOHC - how much would that suck! A two-litre, single-cam, automatic struggling with the weight of a Stagea...

      Rob's S Chassis track cars. Now with more s15 and less 180sx

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      Also did some work to the shed and a massive clean out of stuff. It's now got a small fab/dirty room and has helped keep shed cleaner. Built some new work benches and re organised things also got a TV out there so good having something playing while working on the cars. Got a pedestal drill and linisher off a mate that need to pick up too.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      First thought, have your current injectors flow tested. If they test fine, keep the diagnostics going. It's not the injectors. If the injectors are the issue, find some new or used (cleaned and flow tested) injectors.  While I really love a good excuse to get a modern ECU installed, just needing new injectors probably isn't a good enough reason to do so.

      A bit from column A, B and C. Mainly C   Update time, after deciding it was time to tick off a bucket list goal I finished up full time at MSR and have gotten back behind the wheel and making progress on the S15. Goal has been to drive Bathurst at an event and I have had my entry accepted for Challenge Bathurst in November. Since I don't want to go unprepared I need it running to test and get comfortable.  Been chipping away at it and started by stripping inside, getting it all cleaned and sealing some holes up. With stripping inside I removed the whole wiring loom and found a few surprises.......... its pretty butchered and shit branching and I'm not a fan of the haltech fuse boxes so it's all out and trying to come up with a plan to rewire it all either new fuse/relay box or pdm.  I haven't been happy with how I did the intercooler mounting and been wanting to tuck it up under rad support. O e issue with that is headlights will need a decent trim or get replacement covers. Took the time to mount it with some stand off's and new hardware. Stands are some m8 button bolts, washer, aluminium tube and factory radiator top mount rubbers. It's nice and solid also stiffens rad support which still requires some trimming. Bonus of factory rad mounting is used all factory hoses just need to weld a pressure cap to radiator now. Got sensor block and fuel filter mounted. Plan today is to get vac lines all sorted with push in nylon tube and design oil cooler mounting solution.  Been driving BRZ a heap and went out to Morgan Park for time attack and went pretty well for a wet day. https://youtu.be/gAlQgcQpWj4?si=kojOAOjhhX_X3AXR Getting pretty comfortable in it now and want to do a few more bits to it but restraining myself as don't need 2 race cars at the moment.

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      @sunsetR33 There is obviously a huge culture gap here. There is nothing in place like this in Australia, where if you fit a Mines branded pipe and later replace it with a Jun branded pipe, both pipes are essentially identical - BAM - huge penalties! Where is the Mines pipe?? You can't have a Jun pipe when you said you had a Mines pipe!  Makes no sense to me. Surely makes no sense to anyone else here either.  I'm sure a lot of us would agree that our registration/engineering system is pretty stupid at times, but it's not that stupid.  *** More serious question here. If you replace a factory rubber hose with a silicone hose, is the car illegally on the road now? Does it become legal if you have certification of what brand the silicone hose is? Then would it become illegal again if you replaced that silicone hose with a difference brand of silicone hose? And then would it become legal again if you had certification of the new brand of silicone hose?  I really want to know that answer to that question.

      Good you making progress with this rig. Aluminium welding is painful to learn, have you got a pedal as I found it so much easier with one. If that's the AMG I think it is, you would working with Benny?
