Project TURBO-FRIDGE. Soren's 1996 Nissan Stagea RS-Four-V

[Soren]

Hmm. Well, I'm now chomping at the bit for this. Was going to pick it up this week, but arrangements didn't work out. I'm hoping to see some video soon (haha - Hunter!), but I figure every car thread has to start with some pics.

I just HAD to get one of these! Bought it months ago, and have been waiting.









Some fun extras on this one.
HKS super Drager
HKS anti-ben mushroom (this is what Derek actually called it)
Looks like maybe a blitz BOV
Apex-i AVC-R
Boost gauge
Monitor
CD/DVD/Navi with custom box/changer and amp in the back
Skirts
aftermarket bumper, seems to combine a bit of the R34 look, with a touch of R32 and N1 I guess.
colormatched mouldings (usually they ugly and black!)
17" rims that I don't like too much..

I'm nervous about how much of the goodies will be stolen though

Bet this beast will eat the gas aplenty!

See top right and bottom right.. and

I put 2+2 together

haha!
My avatar on WSC has been for the last few months. Surprised someone didn't wonder about it there haha!

[RyanV]

Yeah you need bigger rims or a drop. The AVC-R is a nice add on I have it on the Aristo and I was surprised how much tuning you can actually do with it. I can't wait until the spring when I play with it and tune the car myself

That looks like a really nice Stagea Soren I hope I'm around when you pick it up because I'd love to see/hear it.

Geez...How many Lancia's has Derek exported!!!

[Xanicron]

Nice! Not many of these around yet.
Got any ideas for wheels? Those ones have to go

Going to get rid of the GT-B now?

[Vr4much?]

Haha, shoot. I had seen that, but I had no idea it had anything to do with a stagea.

I lol'd at the turbo fridge in the title as well

[RawRock]

YOU BOUGHT A STAGEA?! So cool! I definitely want to see it someday. Time for an Edmonton trip!!!

[JDB]

I have a feeling that car will haul ass! Can't wait to see it!

[Soren]

Thanks guys. forgot to mention, 66,000 km on er, just got the package from Derek today, and whoo hoo. Service records! I also just noticed a toggle switch onbthe right of the steering wheel, and I see a turbo timer too. Wonder what the switch is for? Doesn't look stock.

WagonsHo! booked his flight today too, and Cd26 may join as well. should be fun!
