Spotted a White Stagea at 3pm ish today in Hallam, intersection of hallam rd and princess highway :) Going opposite direction

That would be mine, I was filling with e85 at the Hallam United. Sorry I didn't see you Kate, must have had my blinkers on. :)

Spotted a red C34 in a local car yard with M35 17's on it; looked better than expected with the rims.

Auto, straight, nice paint; only $9900.

Daleo, I was wondering how long it would take you to spot that! I spoke to the dealer about it with mine parked across the road. It doesn't have the twin sunroofs like mine and it's non-metallic paint so I don't know what spec level it is. I have been doing some work for Springwood HiFi and the last 3 times I've driven down there I've passed a white C34 heading west on the highway near St Georges Crescent, you haven't been moonlighting in a C34 now have you?

Lol, I saw it about a week or so ago, and promptly forgot about it.

I actually live just up the Highway from Springwood HiFi, do you spend much time around the area?

Just spotted a bunch of Stageas and their proud owners on pages 28-33 of Performance Imports No. 150. Great write-up and pics. Looked like an awesome day (apart from the weather).

It was damn good; especially seeing a snaking line of Camry's & Volvo's clogging up roadways, & driving through the bends.

pffft crap magazine, not one photo of awesome :P

Isn't this the rear of it on page 33? The silver one with the dirty rear window parked in front of the other "awesome".

I want to know when Matt stood on my bonnet to take picture 14....

And Iain, I can see in the pic14 where you had to wipe away some sneaky remarks from your rear window!

:P

spotted a white C34 at about 1:15pm this arvo on Dunheaved Rd, Werrington gave each other a wave :)

LOL, I was in that area too around 11am this morning. I spotted a white s2 on my way home - NEO-747 - on the M4 between around Eastern Creek until we both got off at Prospect Highway.

Also spotted a silver s2 in Greystanes turning off Merrylands Road, just after I was talking to someone about my car and the 4(!) Datto 1600s that he owns.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
