Welcome to the Stagea clan!! :)

Enjoy the awesome wagon that is the Stagea....the enormous boot space, the comfort, the handling, the performance (potential), the traction, the not-so-great fuel economy, and last but not least, the puzzled expressions and long stares from bystanders and passers by as they try (in vain it seems) to work out what on earth that car is... >_<

Have owned mine for nearly 2 years, increased its power output by about 40awkw, and still very happy with it :)

thanks everyone, at the moment she's fairly stock standard, 81 000k when i got her, short term mods will be high flow filter, exhaust, cruise, towbar and new coil packs and clutch. eventually it'll get wheels, hopefully some dayz bumpers and then ill squeeze a little bit more power out of her.

fuel wise she was getting around 330k around town until i took it to sydney a few weeks back. she got 480k on the highway and since then she gets about 400k around town.

iv got a dodgey fone pic but i'm about to take her to victoria and along the great ocean road from monday so ill take some better ones then and put them up when i get back.

nice S2, its got the dayz front bar and side skirts by the looks, more than likely the rear bar then too, so youve got the Dayz kit as is

some nice 18s would look schmick on that clean stag.

nah man, that aint the dayz bar, i wish! it's just the standard one with standard rear bar and as far as i know, the side skirts came on most cars...? anyway, yeh plan is to drop it on some 18's when i can pull the cash out of my ass and find the wheels i want... looking for something like these below........ anyone seen anything similar around anyewhere???

yeah thats just the factory bodykit. pretty sure you cant get an s2 without some kind of kit, the only differences i've seen is in the front bar - the two "pillars" (one each side of the rego plate) are sometimes in a "/ \" shape rather than the "\ /" shape on yours (and mine). Hope that makes sense.

    • From there it is trickier. Ecutek seems to be one of those closed ecosystems where everyone password protects their tunes which means I either choose a tuner and can't change from them and can't make any changes myself for any reason, or I have to buy the tuning software (about $4k) and then get someone to tune from scratch (which is not simple with all the multi dimensional tables these days). Once you buy about 300 "flash points" per ECU you can get it tuned and add their "RaceROM" function which hacks extra functionality like launch control onto the ECU, and also makes extra data available for logging over CAN Not sure what I'll do there yet; I'm tempted to use one of the overseas shops that does billions of remote tunes of the platform instead of starting from scratch locally, a lot can be done online these days.
    • Can I log IAT eh? Well, can now So next thing was looking at data logging. Not straight forward because none of the motorsport displays have cracked the nissan/inifinti CAN and ECU based displays don't do g logging, lap timing, predictive laps etc.  So, I bought an Ecutek dongle from Tunehouse (Oz distributor). Even without a tune onboard that allows display and logging of about 50 parameters via Android (and presumably iOS) app. Approx 600 for the bluetooth + Usb version That gives me (pretty ugly but) functional dash display on Android And logging of these parameters I'll play around a bit over the break, but at least now I can make sure I have oil pressure when I get to some track testing.  
    • I don't know what globes/headlight connector they run, but I'd be looking for a female adapter to plug into the existing headlight on one side. Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256017245989 Then I'd use a pair of single input, double output relays (one for low, one for high), mount them in a spare space in the fuse box if you want to to look more original (and be easier to maintain). Then 2 new power sources from the main stud in the fuse box via a fuse to each relay. Low from the headlight adapter pin triggers low relay and high from the high headlight adapter pin triggers high and low. Earth the relays and new headlight sockets and off you go. Because it triggers off the original headlight all of the dipping/hi on/high flash all still works
    • I reached 10 posts and wanted to make my build thread too but still can't add pictures to posts so I have no idea how it works 😂
