Don't get me wrong, I love my Stagea, but there are limited comparable cars around, like I have only seen legnums and caldinas around and thats it. Not to mention forester GTs I suppose, but I dont rate them.

Has anyone driven one of the Mitsubishi's wagons?? They are more expensive than an autech 260 it seems, would they be worth the coin$$$?

How do you reckon they would compare (260 vs EVO)?

Examples of the EVOs:

well, for a start they don't een appear on the SEVS register, let alone have a compliancer in this country.

My opinion, going purely on paper numbers and the look?

*FAPPETY FAPPETY FAPPETY FAPPETY*

Hmmm, I do really like the black one, I like it a lot. I just couldnt justify spending almost $40K on a mitsubishi!! I could get an awesome autech stagea and do it up for that price.....

Yeah, they looking for interest before they apply for SEVS, it should get approval you'd think.

Yeah not entirely convinced... its an evo after all so really doesn't compair to a stagea size wise. It is more of a comparison to a WRX wagon i recon. Still im not a massive fan of the styling really the back lights done anything for me at all, just my 2c

Hmm, I was sure there was someone on here who had driven one, I read about it once but I can remember where. Seeing as though it isnt approved for SEVS it must be one of the guys who is from or has been in Japan.

I'm still struggling to justify the price anyway, just wondering how good it really is??

Hey bro,

They have had a Libero GT wagon in nz for a while now with the 4G93T and evo running gear.

My mate did a 4G63T conversion very easily and it hammered along.

I think the evo wagon is a bit bigger than a rex and is a good compromise for size against a stag.

It is a bit pricey but remember it is still a 2006 low km car.

They also have GT4 powered caldinas and legnums that are reasonably priced.

Check out trademe in nz (Kiwis build killer cars!) and all your regular importers, aus has to get them sooner or later.

Coming into some cash next year and I certainly will be rethinking.

I still got a soft spot for nissans though..

looks like a big round bus. im thinking L300 on steroids. take the stag for style anyday. and the fact that it's still only a 4 cylinder would make me think how practicull it could be for long distance driving or lugging around decent size loads or 5 adults.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
