also related ive just noticed they are the same brand wheels as mine except mine are silver not polished, anyone know what they are....

[Bis-e Bee]

Not bad, however I've already signed up for a 2001 M35 :-)

Picking her up tomorrow all going to plan.

Look like Yokohama AVS T5's to me.

[GoldZilla]

Yep, those wheels are AVS Model 5's.

Tom, Duncan has those same wheels on his "Volvo."

I love the gear-shift boot and steering wheel (R34) that's on that car. Seats are NOT the factory leather jobs, as they're not electrically adjustable.

But ....but .... its only single turbo.

If that had a RB26 under the hood, I'd be impressed. Dunno why, but I've never been a fan of the Bayside Blue myself.

The only thing that I like is the R34 front conversion. So tempted to do it myself, but being a perfectionist, I wouldn't go the fiberglass job, it would have to be the real thing. Maybe a R34 wreck (rear ended) and use the genuine R34 front.

Its fun to dream

If only the R34-front conversion was that easy...

indeed, you'd have fun mating the stagea and 34 front guards together, don't think it would be a simple cut and attach job.

that's the reason they go fibreglass, a lot easier to get the required shape and style.

not a fan of the bayside blue either.. i liked the yellow one (mental blank, cant remember who's it was)

The leather seats look like seat covers to me.

Personally I would never buy anything from JAD.

Still with this one I don't have to!

Looks like a Std RS4V to me by the door inserts and manual seats.

I don't think that an R34 front is worth that much.

Why do they always stick those GTR badges in the grill, it sure isn't a GTR and never will be!

That posses an interesting question. Do you, or anyone consider the 260RS version of the Stagea a GTR?

Its an interesting one, in that sure its not a GTR as released by Nissan. (I guess the argument ends there) but a RB26, GTR running gear and so on, why couldn't it be rated as a GTR? Not geuine of coarse, but a GTR wagon? Could the 260RS be rated as a GTR wagon? And if so, is it in bad taste to put GTR badges on a 260RS? with or without R34 front end conversion.

I own a 260RS, and no, I havn't put GTR badges on it but I do consider it a GTR, and if anyone asks I tell them its a GTR wagon.

Right/wrong or somewhere in between? ....

[BKC34]

my mechanic refers to my car as a gtr wagon lol. and its not even a 260 rs lol

[mitchy_]

unless it came from the factory called a GTR, then no i wouldn't consider it to be one.

even a gts-t with 26, full gtr running gear etc, i wouldnt consider a true gtr, it's all in the VIN.

much the same as the phase III's, etc. only fetch big bucks if they are genuine, not replica's.

that said, you can do what you like, it's your car!

[Poida81]

i got those!
