New M35 Stagea Owner

[euroequip]

Hey all,

My names Cameron, today I became the proud owner of a '02 M35 Stagea. Well, put a deposit on it anyway. Change over is next week.

Are there any other M35 owners around the GC? There's a bloke around the corner from me with a white autech axis m35 so thats atleast one.

Looking forward to learning all about my new Stag in the coming months. I have some questions already but ill try the search button first.

For anyone interested, the one I put the deposit on is this one: M35

Cheers

Hey there Cameron - welcome to the joy of M35 ownership. Looks like you have saved a few dollars in mods already

Congrats on your purchase!

Thanks guys, current owner is running 14psi on the stock turbo so I think ill take her back down as I don't want to go through the turbo too quick

I can't wait for next week!

I was considering that car a few days ago. Lucky for you I'm in Adelaide and Qld is too far away!

No seriously, I was interested in that car but found out that it didn't have leather seats so I pass. Funny thing is that I know that the material seats are more comfy than the leather seats anyway so go figure..

Nice car though, and a good buy.

14-15PSI is standard

Congratulations, and welcome to the life of Stagea ownership - good times ahead!

Thanks for the welcome guys.

I was not sure what standard boost is, I just got warned by my mate last night (owns a S15) to be careful as the ceramic wheel cant handle too much boost. After reading on here it looks like there is some truth to that.

I had a bit of a search but could not find the info I need on one thing in particular, the M35 has the screen/navi combo, on the rear side glass in the boot there is the antenna for the navigation stuck to both sides, since theres 1/100 chance that it will be able to be converted to English, am I able to just get rid of the antenna stuff?

Nice buy Cameron. Welcome to M35 ownership.

Would be interested to hear what the pod sounds like (looks to me like a Blitz Sonic Filter even though the ad stated Apexi )

Good to see a third pearlescent blue RS around. Some interesting mods, but I did have to laugh at what the seller said at the bottom of the ad

You have certainly saved yourself a bit of coin though

EDIT: maybe you will need Xenon headlights if those have been disconnected for compliance?

thanks mate, pod sounds pretty good, kind of gets lost once it hits boost because all you can hear is spoool. The pod is a bit shiney for me though, I come from euro cars where everything has to look OEM . It does look blue in the photos but its silver, which is always easy to keep clean! Cant wait! The seller was a top bloke though, very friendly and knew his stuff.

Oh and it still has the xenons so got to be happy with that!

LOL!

I didn't look at the front shot of your car... clearly silver

Having said that, all the other exterior shots look like my paint colour

Cameron I took delivery of an m35 two weeks ago which is dark blue has bodykit and Nismo springs and shocks. I live in the Upper Coomera region and I,m like you at the moment still finding my way around the cars electrics but hopefully a visit to Chris Rogers on Wed should get a few answers to its mysterious. Enjoy your car they certainly grow on you
