The yards are rip offs.

I loked at an S1 in Ferry Rd. $26,000 reduced to $20.995.

My do it yourself import cost me $14,000 on the road with comp. Ins.Was Y450,000.

Correct me if I am wrong, but a lot of guys in other States seem to wait an eternity to get thier Stageas. Freight here to Qld is quite fast. There is a ship that only does Japan/brisbane. There are excellent RAWS compliers here also.

If I was really keen to get a Stagea quick smart I would look at doing it thru Brissie. It is not much to fly here and think of the QUICK trip home. Hmmmm.

Did you direct import or buy from a dealer?

If a dealer had brought mine in it would have been $20K in a yard.

It doesn't cost $6k to get here and drive home, even from Canberra.

Spotted: A DIRTY BIG SCRATCH DOWN THE SIDE OF MY CAR!!!!

someone must have rubbed past it with a bag or something, it doesn't look like a deliberate key, but still a very big pain in the butt...

Two friends saw a silver Stagea driving north thru Gympie on Sunday morning. They didnt get a rego no. but where sure excited to tell me that they seen another one - not bad since mines the only one they've ever seen.

Plus I just worked out that I must have seen TECHO's a couple of months back on the Bruce Highway heading north thru Gympie - I remember the rego 534...

    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work 
    • You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
