Hey guys,

Unfortunately I need to sell the stagea, as my wife finally wants to learn how to drive. So, I'm gonna need a small manual hatch. Any suggestions on what I should get? Probably something pretty cheap, so I can start up a fund to buy another one in the next year or 2..

On the topic of the Stagea, if anyone wants a cheap one, its in the for sale section, $10k pretty much stock (with stereo + immobiliser + alarm), or $12k with extra rims, exhaust, sub and amp. I am up for part trades.

Will be sad to see it go.

+11ty for joining Teh Pulsar Fury Brigade

All the cool kids are doing it

(N15 SSS is the one I would recommend, it will make losing the stagea a little less heart breaking if you don't have to go all the way down to a GA16 *shudders*

SR20 goodness FTW!!!)

Can't learn in the Stagea because of stupid nsw laws.... no turbos, v8s, blowers, engine conversions, performance mods etc.... sucks. If anyone knows of someone who might want to part trade or buy a cheap Stag, give me a pm.... geez this sucks, I wish I could afford another car.

If she's still on her Learner's, then there shouldn't be an issue with the fact that the Stagea is a turbo. If she's on her P's, then fair enough. A Stagea is a pretty stealthy car to drive around in, but it's not worth the risk of her losing her licence...

you pulsar haters are just not manly enough to handle the insane torque steer hahaa..

nah - I had a n14( the best of the pulsar breed ) that put out 150kw at the front wheels

weighed 1100kg - so pretty good power to weight

oh and the n14's had independant rears :P

what about an mx5? not terribly fast but good balance etc?

If she's still on her L's, as mentioned, in NSW, she can still drive the Stagea. The restrictions do not apply until she gets her P plates. Also, if you two live together, and it's the only car, you may have very strong grounds for an exemption.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.

      Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.

      That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.

      February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear! Stock quantities: NA1 Honda NSX - 1 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1990-na1-honda-nsx 1973 Toyota Celica LB 2000GT - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1973-toyota-celica-lb-2000gt 1968 Mazda Cosmo Sport - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1968-mazda-cosmo-sport 1970 KPGC10 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1970-kpgc10-nissan-skyline-2000gt-r
