hi my name is robert.

i have a 97 s1 stagea. i have to repare the cv joints on the front drive shafts.

i know that they are the r33 gtr. I have a mate with some 32 gtr shafts but not shore if they are the same as 33gtr dose eney1 know?

also i have been told that rb26 intake can fit on the 25?

the same mate just got a 34gtr and is changing the frount brake set up. I would like to use the 34 brakes on the stagea but been told they will not fit?

also if the guy that has the books with all aftermarket parts can get back to me would be greatly appreciated

I have fitted R34GTT brakes front and rear on my S1 Stagea no problems. They bolt straight up. You need to trim the stone guard on the rear and pull the olives out of the lines - you'll see what I mean when you come to it. Not sure about the GTR brakes but I would think they fit as well. Are they Brembos?

Or join the Willwood group buy!!!!

I have talked to just jap and they are 14 mm bolts and couse the stages run 33 gtst calipers they are 12 or 13 mm bolts

so drilling needed.

I have 18inch vip rims but changing to some work rims when i find out what they are called lol. I seen and like just not know the type yet.

also i found out from just jap that 32 and 33 gtr drive shafts are the same

      R32 GTR - Where to begin

      Clutch done also about a year ago got a DCS HD Single Plate. Basically done everything but touch the engine 🤣 But will definitely get a fuel pump and ECU, then start saving 🫡

      Fuel pump and clutch and ecu that’ll get you to about 230 or so kw, after that the sky’s the limit and the budget blows out faster then you can blink

      Should add all mods on the car are done in my ownership. The car was a 1 owner in Japan and I'm first owner in Aus.

      Thanks GTSBoy. Did BC's so not Japanese coilovers. I've already done all the other points you mentioned besides the seat, I like the factory seats and want to keep original look. Done all the fluids and comp tests etc and all consistent and clean. Well and truly used to the power and car as I've been driving it for a few years as it is now. Contemplating next steps mainly. Preference to remain twins too. @Murray_Calavera Paying for labour.

      Hmm. I don't think it is possible. As soon as you start, you will be on the hook for all the money. $5-10k is enough to make it fragile. Here's the list of things you need to do to make it nice, and driveable. If Japanese coilovers, get them measured and tested, then decide if you're keeping them or replacing them. If low rate springs, then consider big ARBs. If high rate springs, then probably leave stock ARBs. Either way, ad decent end links. Replace and/or upgrade all suspension bushes. That's LCAs front and rear, UCAs & traction arms at rear, caster rods at front. I highly recommend GKTech FUCAs, although the step to spherical joints is a step too far for some people. Rebuild brakes front and rear. This means making sure the calipers are healthy, discs are up to thickness, hoses are replaced with braided. Add good pads and fluid. Investigate wheel bearings all the way around, tie rod ends all the way around, upright bearings at the front, balljoints everywhere. Any of these that are still original are likely to be a bit wibbly nowadays. Bride or Recaro driver's seat, with fairly deep sides. Nice tyres. Street performance wheel alignment. Or track focused, if you're not going to use it on the road. Fluids everywhere if not known to be fresh. Now, learn to drive the car as hard as it will go, before trying to add any power. Save up big $$. $5k is the minimum cost for putting a decent ECU into it. A big single, with manifold, new exhaust, injectors, fuel system upgrade, ignition upgrade, triggering upgrade, etc, is >>$10k. None of that (except the ECU) is a good idea on an old RB. You really should put head studs in it, investigate engine health (compression and leak down, real oil pressure at revs, coolant condition, etc) before even considering adding power. There's nothing sadder than the "I added boost then it shat the bed" thread.
