Stagea Rwd Turbo?

[Stageazilla]

Hi all

New to the forum,Iv recently aquired a 1996 Stagea rwd non turbo auto,very standard.My son and i are considering keeping it as a long-term project,so Im interested to know what mods can be done,Im a fan of keeping it N/A,but would like to know if anybody has done a DET conversion on one of these(manual?),is it possible?Just wanting a bit of an idea,such as what computer would we use etc,as far as I can see nissan didnt make a turboed rwd in this model?Anyway I imagine you get the idea of what Im asking if you know your stuff,so any feedback would be awsum,Cheers

I will say it first, don't bother. Just buy a turbo one.

This is the section you need if you are planning an NA+t.

If I had one of these and wanted to boost it, I would consider strapping a big Eaton or similar supercharger onto the side of it. Less power potential than a turbo, more pain in the bum to install and get working, but more interesting and definitely much better suited to hauling a heavy arsed Stagea off the line.

Or just buy an rs stagea.

Series 2 rwd turbo neo engine

A conversion is a pain in the ass. When the car you want is actually available it's silly.

^^ what he said.

Or loose the Na rib and throw in a modified LSxxx.

Yes and were both stagea owners.

As above its possible but not really worth it. I had one like yours but just sold it and bought an Rs4. If you get some serious power you won't want an auto... but awd is good. Look for a manual with Neo turbo engine.

I want an auto and serious power. It depends what you want to do with the car.

I like drag racing. So auto it is.
