Found the Abflug online shop http://www.ab-flug.co.jp/indexf.htm and noticed as well as kits they have Stagea specific parts from PentRoof... one of which I think I know:

7934190001.jpg = PentRoof Bilstein coilovers!! $3650 plus cost of getting em here!!

But what exactly are these goodies Im looking at???? - please tell me they're not only for 260RS - they say WGNC34!!:

1. 7934180000.jpg = ? = ~73,000 yen ($900)

2. 7934180002.jpg = ? = ~64,000 yen ($800)

3. 7934180003.jpg = ? = ~137,000 yen ($1700)

4. 7934190000.jpg = ? = ~29,000 yen ($370)

5. 7934190002.jpg = ? = ~13,000 yen ($170)

And I like this Ablug Stagea bonnet vent to get ambient air to your pod (scoops are allowed in WA :( )

6. 0034010001.jpg0034030001.jpg = Bonnet vent = 9240 yen = ~$110 :)

Do I feel some group-buys coming up??? :)

:P

Yeah I will be ordering the scoop soon - lemme know if anyone wants one.

So can anyone tell me from just looking exactly what parts 1 -> 5 pictured above are and if they look meant for normal Stageas??? The site says WGNC34 but I hope they arent only 4 260RS??

Cheers

OK worked out a bit of translation using babelfish translator - pic number 1. is for fitment to RB26DETT (260RS) as noted in the translation of the "Additional Info", but seems to be the only one that is 260RS... the others in additional info translate to "R32/33/34 conformity"

Can anyone work out what the other parts are what engine they look meant for.

The "Additional Info" button on the Abflug site for each part is the left of the two grey/back buttons... the right button in each item is "Add to Cart"...

But yeah - someone who knows parts by looking at them have a stab at what all these parts above are??

Cheers

2. Dump pipes RS260 twin turbo only

3. Front pipe RS260 twin turbo

4. Dump and front pipes again

5. Adjustable Castor bars should be ok on RS4 but a castor kit from whiteline is probably just as good.

6. Rear sub frame lock bushes or ‘pineapples’ Probably ok on RS4 but a bit over the top for a road car IMHO

Thanks Burns! I think on the site it has reference in the "Additional Info" to all of those parts for R33 and R34 engines also - but use the RB26DETT picture... but Im gonna need to find someone who speaks Japanese to confirm for sure. But at least now I know what type of parts they are!

6. = yeah pineapples - of course... but in aluminium/stainless? I thought they were like polyurethane/plastic normally? How do metal ones work?

Will the pineapples and castor bars work on normal Stageas??

Cheers

Adam

    • 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!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • 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!
    • 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.
