New Stagea Owner

Hi all, bought this the other week, some will probaly know it. anyway im going to change a few little things to mine taste, but it will mostly be the same as it is. im finding it hard to find bits for it. im after a front bumper lip, any leads? also my rear calipers seem to be sticking on. rear brakes are smelly and get alot warmer than the fronts. anyway hope to see you around, cheers Owen

Nice buy, it looks to be in great condition and you will never risk losing it in a carpark with that colour!

For your brakes I would suggest getting the fluid replaced and bled as a start, its a great idea regardless of the problem, while they are at it they can look into the issue and see if you need to get the calipers rebuilt. Getting the calipers cleaned and rebuilt with new seals is not a huge expense at any decent brake shop - hopefully the pistons are in good nick otherwise its an awesome excuse to throw a bigger set of brakes on it ;)

      I buy my wheel cleaner in 4 litre bottles now. Euro brakes are brutal

      City of Casey - This is obscene!

      Sounds like it may all just be some baseless outrage stoked by the carexplore guy? As in the linked social media outrage on facebook just goes back to carexplore as a source again. Further shown by the council response that nothing actually has changed: "The Private Land Use Permit has been part of the Casey Community Local Law for a number of years. It's important to clarify that this permit is not new, and no changes have been made to the permit or the Local Law in relation to the permit." The full council response in Prank's link sounds reasonable to me. Saying that as someone who neither lives there nor has a front yard to call their own

      Clutch hydraulics are also all good, looks like a brand new slave cylinder and everything bled up well. No idea what the actual clutch is, and I don't intend to pull the box off on the floor to find out, so unless we have trouble on the dyno or at shakedown that will remain a mystery for the new owner

      Front brakes are G4 8 pot calipers over 330mm discs with braided lines. Everything looks good, pretty sure these are off my old 350. Pads are brand new and judging from gold colour are Winmax which is what I also run on my race car, Neil and I both sourced brake stuff from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney who really knows his stuff Everything has bled up nicely with all new Motul RBF600 fluid, there were 2 loose hard line connections and the calipers were new on the car so I ended up doing it 3 times but it is perfect now

      So, starting with the rear brakes. They look like standard R33 GTST, and will need new pads shortly (less than 5mm material, probably only 1 day left). The slotted discs (probably DBA) are near new at 18.01mm and the lines are braided
