I have trawled Youtube for Stagea vids many many times (the upshot of a quiet day at work) so I have many picks.

Thanks Dale, it wont be too insane for much longer, motors coming out this weekend (after the HPI photoshoot is done on friday arvo), got a new engine setup going in, should be a fun daily driver :P

heres another one from motorvation motorkana event :banana:

second one looks nice... but cant tell if its fast or not, guess it would be

not that fast really, 11.33 at 124mph at drags fullweight (1740kg + driver) on first outing and only 18psi of boost and over 560hp at wheels in vids (has gone 605hp at wheels on 22psi on low reading dyno too) :P

'Bout bloody time they got your car into a magazine!

Seriously that stag is off it's nut, I love it. Earlier tonight at beacon 19 I planted it a little too hard and it dropped back into 1st unexpectedly and 4wdrifted up the carpark, slightly odd sensation but seriously fun none the less.

'Bout bloody time they got your car into a magazine!

rick the local HPI/Zoom photographer asked me 2 years ago at car show and i said i wanted drag time and good dyno run before i do, hes asked me on previous occasions since if im ready and i havent been happy with the car. Unfortunately i never got to meet my goals due to a defect notice (got it back at start of June) that i have 3 weeks left to sort the car or its unregoed, not happy but thats life. New motor is gonna be abit less powerful but a shitload of fun and i got plans for more mods to the external appearance of the car now, instead of focusing on the motor all the time like this setup. I got a r32 gtr now for this current engine, will weigh in at 1280kg or so once running, should go alright considering its over 400kg lighter than the stagea :P

He's here on SAU as well, but he's "moved on" to a Mitsu Evo. He's a Melbourne resident.

Yeah, I only just realised that. He started the 'We'd talk about Stageas...' thread, right?

    • Just checking, when we are talking about high temp fluid, are we all referring to DOT 5.1? I haven't had any issues with changing it every 2-3 years. 
    • Yeah that is still true AFAIK.....good brake fluid should be changed annually because it absorbs water faster which is more often than most mechanics would do it. There are cheap tools that check water% in brake fluid if you all scientific about it. I for sure would (do) run good brake fluid in anything that even casually saw the track like Murray said; avoiding the risk of "exciting" fade is worth it
    • Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.
    • Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
    • The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good?
