Stagea's With R34 Gtr Fronts

[Loop]

That's horrendous ... ew

[AMS]

Apporximatly how much would it cost to get the front end conversion done? I have a quote from Garage-13 for just the frontend. $1500 incl. all parts to do the conversion. Is that a good price? Oh, and then around $200 to get it freighted to Tamworth So yeah, how much for an install? Just one more thing, When/if I do the whole front end thing, how much would it cost me to get the whole car re-sprayed in Candy Orange?

Thanks Guys

Its painful to look at!

[mcnamg]

thats horrible!! what the hell is is that someone put it in a car crusher and put it out of its misery whilst i go and throw up!

It depends what parts they are giving you.

If that is gaurds, lights, bonnet and all, GO FOR IT.

MASA kit is ~6k

As for spraying a car... one this big...custom color....i wouldnt pay any less them 4-6k for a paint job. I want a black paint job, and my mates a painter, so ill probably get a black job for ~1.5k

As for install, its pretty basic, you COULD even do it yourself, depending how technically minded you are...

I say, dont bother, its a stagea not an R34. If you want R34 front, get an R34 (roughly same price anyway)

[AMS]

Thanks AlexCim, I still think I will be going fr he R34 front Just need to save p some dough

[familka gtr]

Silver You saw is with RB26 and its for sale.

[AMS]

Just got an 'updated' quote from Garage 13. $5750 for the kit - $1500 for the install. Damn thats expensive, I dont think I can really afford that at the moment

[AMS]

Anywhere else cheaper?? Is there any chance of getting a custom bodykit or front bar made for the Stagea? How expensive are they?

[familka gtr]

I did not think You can get for 1500$ because only head lights its more like 1500$.

One what was probably first in Australia they paid 8000$ for kit only from Japan plus lights ,etc etc.

So maybe is a good price anyway.Try to have a look somwhere else ,maybe???

[familka gtr]

try BLITZ .I think they are on Gold coast? and maybe they got the body kit for it.

[AMS]

Got a "full" price today. $5750 with everything included

I reckon it's rice. People keep complaining about how it's a waste of money to make a gtst look like a gtr.

how many times have you guys heard this phrase whenever gtst owners ask about making their cars look like gtrs, they get told 'buy a gtr'.

therefore, in my opinion, it's just rice. for 6k, you can get a nice collection of go fast and handling bits.

[Ska]

Oh no doubt it is rice, but it is not like we are putting gtr badges on it or anything, just a great look, well that is all I am after. I think people who make thier gtst look like a gtr is because they want people to think it is a gtr, whereas there is no way we could make people believe that they made a gtr wagon, oh hang on a sec they did, but they called it a Stagea

But as you said, the price leaves more than a deirable effect on other possible mods, turbo, suspension, brakes, rb26dett, etc etc etc.

Still, god damn I love the look of it.

[darrinspencer]

What are the full parts required for the conversion

Front guards- masa motorsports $75000 yen pair plus shipping etc say $1500

Bonnet- factory r34 GTR or carbon copy $1000

Head lights $500 pair s/hand

Front bar- R34 GTR genuine $750-1000 s/hand

Thats the obvious parts

What else

Bonnet hinges?

Radiator support? $500?

Bonnet catch? GTR? $150?

Once fitted, does the front guards flare out wider than the factory Stagea guards?

If yes, would you need wider offset wheels for it to look good?

If the whole thing costs 5-6K plus paint and fitting, you can sell your old parts for upto 2k to offset the costs

[Terminal]

Yeah sell the old parts to kangaroo victims.

[-FUZZY-]

Anyone got pics of the back of this car???

I wanna see how a GT wing looks on a stagea ..... could be another option!!
