Sorry mate, i had suspension about 2 months ago but it was shagged so i ditched it. probably would have passed rego, but was no good for me.

Very nice ride though, hope it treats you well

What suspension do you have in there right now?

Do you want to swap just for compliance or do you want to swap full stop.

Being in melbourne, i wouldnt want to do a swap just for compliance, but if you have something nice in there, maybe we can organize a permanent swap of some kind??

Welcome to the ever growing ranks of Stagea owners.

I have a spare set of standard front and rear shocks and spare pair of standard rear springs, sorry no spare standard front springs. Cost about $25 in freight to get them to you and I will want them back as soon as you are finished with them.

PM me if I can be of assistance

:D cheers :(

I have contacted the previous owner cause he had the stock suspension replaced with king springs and coilovers, waiting for him to call me back, I am in brisbane too ;) Once I hear I'll let you know.

Thanks Ska that would be great. I will just give you the full situation I'm in here. Ok, when the car lands in Brisbane for complaince it will need to be standard. J Spec has organised the complaince workshop to take off the modified parts (exhaust, wheels, suspension) and replace it with the standard gear. We have sourced and exhaust but still need to get some standard wheels and suspension. The workshop will fit all the standard gear on the car for compliance and then replace it back with the modified parts when the compliance process is done. Now, they are willing to do this for free IF I give them the set of standard suspension for them to use in future. So, I need to buy somebody's standard suspension and then give it to the workshop.

So any assistance would be great :blink: Thanks guys ;)

Nice car you got there, esp the colour, l hear maroon is a rare colour with Stagea's.

Looks like we're in teh same boat, gotta wait for the car to arrive in. Tell ya, the wait seems to drag along, and its only been 2 weeks!! :blink:

Nah dude, sorry. My car will live in Tamworth :blink: then will be moving to either Newcastle or Brisbane.

Just an update on the suspension. J Spec 'thinks' that the car has coilovers. So does that mean that I will need struts, shocks and springs?

Sorry, I don't understand the question.

Have a look in the Stagea Suspension thread and then ask the question again.

:D Cheers :(

    • 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.
