What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

Is it on yet? What wheels did you end up with?

Yes, fired it up last night to check for leaks. Only one was exhaust, but was last join in the cat back so easy to fix. I still have to drop the radiator fluid as only put water in it for the test in case it was a total fail & I lost all the green stuff. Still haven't driven it.

No idea what wheels went in. I wasn't asked what I wanted when I ordered it & didn't know I had a choice. Probably a good thing as I would have researched it to death & then chosen wrong, lol. I just hope it's not too laggy.

Not planning to go through all that again I assume? lol.

I suspect he put the smaller wheels in yours, did you take any pics? We should start a Stagea Hypergear thread and post pics up with power/lag results. I took quite a few...

Is the bigger Hypergear core more expensive and laggy compared to Leon's?

The billet compressor is $200 more, the customer can decide how laggy they want it to be...

It seems to be around 3500 from what I saw, perhaps you can elaborate Marko? Bit hard without a boost gauge I suppose.

I think the sizes are teh ghey. Their staggered for a start, and I think the fronts run a really high offset? like +47 or something?

Yep. Fronts are +47 I think and rears are +15. I thought about getting 2 sets and run the +15s only but too much hassle.

That's pretty good...your old/my setup hits max boost around the same rpm? so its not too laggy then...

Its not laggy at all for the power, just when you compare it to the stock turbo.

Im going back to edge tomorrow for my attempt to crack 350kw with the GTX3071, will let you know how it goes. I wouldn't like to go laggier than what I have at the moment but where is the fun in stopping there? Next goal will be 400. :)

Haha, no Scotty, not planning to do that again in a hurry.

I took quite a few pics and, because I had my original turbo plus the hi-flowed one, I was able to do side-by-side photos. Makes it easy to see the difference.

Good idea re new thread. It's started so you & Marko can make the first posts with your results. I still have some info to gather before having anything useful to post.

Sprayed up the front bar with a can for the trail fit.....also fitted the rear bar up.

Just waiting on the new rear wing now and then it's time for the spray jobs.

I also fitted a new pre-load spring to the Actuator.....back to 14PSI+ launch's! :P

Looking very mean! When the flairs merge in it'll be spot on. Its a shame the former owner of that front bar decided to cut out the stock Kenstyle/Xanadu style grill. Irrespective, it's looking good. Whats the height from ground to the front lip?

    • Nah, yeah, nah. Speakers have a nominal impedance of 8 ohm that looks more like 6.4 ohm when measured. The receiver's amplifiers (all channels) are all rated to 6 ohm (I think, it's been a long time since I cared). The real problem is that many modern class D amps have aggressive protection circuitry that cuts off the fun if they think too much current is being drawn. And with my speakers having series crossovers, as opposed to more typical parallel crossovers, and big TL enclosures, they can certainly dip down to lower impedances at some frequencies and that easily triggers the protection. Pioneer receivers are somewhat famous for it, but even Denon, Onkyo, et al, all have many complaints against them across various models. It only does it when listening to music at high levels. You have to be putting your ears at risk to do it. But sometimes I want to do that. If I was serious about using it as a listening room I'd simply upgrade the amp for the front pair to a nice Rotel or something, and just use the receiver for signal handling and processing - although that would be a bit of a pain in the arse too. Have to switch on more shit, pre-amp volume vs main amp volume, etc etc.
    • yeah pretty much, stopped playing after lightfall, couldnt be bothered with the final shape...  ran that game into the ground for years... bit of a shame.. the  story was awesome. was playing a lot of trials but the hackers became tooo much, ruined the game.

    • I reckon you are 100% right on the money. The only reason I bought Red Sport instead of the base VR30 is that I am investigating racing it in Production Cars, and they require you to run a (mostly) standard car....therefore knowing exactly what was in the RS spec was important to me and I paid the extra. Other than that, for sure I would have pocketed the $10k and spent them on mods instead. Plus the non-RS models are more likely to have had a nicer life prior. Just a warning though, mods always cost twice as much as they look like they will on paper BTW you should also consider the 400R imports, they are about the same price as a local RS but 5+ years newer. Of course that comes with the usual warnings about finding parts, unhelpful nissan dealers and finding insurance
