while looking for a stag on the prestige auction sheets, came accross a 2001 stagea ... see link, but the new body style looks really nice, the report sheet says its a 250z rs four ... new name ??

cheers

That looks like a Series 3, late 2001 (the S2's stopped in September). From memory it has a 2.5 litre all alloy V6 (same generation as the 350Z, R35 Skyline and Maxima).:(

As far as I know RSFour doesn't mean 4WD. . I know the N in the model code (WGNC34) means 4WD

Chassis code on the auction sheet says NM35, which as it is a M35 model, that would indicate that it is 4wd.

Judging by this:

http://english.auto.vl.ru/catalog/nissan/s...stagea/2001_10/

.... the M35 RS4 came with the VQ25DD and DET engines, I can't see a 250Z RS4 model listed there, might be a 250t RS4 with the DET engine. Nice car in any case!

Yep - whole new model - not a series 3 or anything... its shortened everywhere to "M35".

It came in a whole range of specs just like the WGNC34... RWD, 4WD, Turbo, Non turbo, Autech etc etc.

Unfortunately after extensive enquiries there is NOONE in Australia even close to getting compliance approved for this model - so dont bother importing just yet. The few Stagea RAWS that I spoke to said they wouldnt be even looking at processing a test M35 for compliance for at least 2 years when the prices come down - coz at the moment theyd be a $40+,000 price point - which would assume most people would instead choose a Sereis 2 260RS.

:(

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
