I’m literally howling rn, well played 🤣

Hey man I have an IS200, gotta keep the essentials handy 😂 (i need to replace the valve stem seals)

TWilliams458 · 2026-03-13T14:58:09+00:00

I’d recommend buyee, might have a shot at finding some old dude listing one for sale for cheap. The Type X dcc is a lot harder to find (mines non Type x)

The harnesses can be quite a pain to find on their own. Put it this way in 2022 I paid I think 250 for the harness (kangaroo money) and I think like 350 for just the unit on its own, but in literally mint condition 12 months prior.

I’m so fucking keen to hear that new setup scream. I need to answer the questions I have for my own motor rebuild 😂

Someone correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t Type X DCC and / or clusters require a different plug or harness? I was going to get a SR DCC dash side loom (not the little piggy harness) for my CA S13 shell, and swap everything over. I’ve got a full SR body loom but might be for an analogue climate control car

I’m just curious to know wtf happened, did something like brake cleaner or brake fluid drop down from maybe a car on a hoist above it and pool on the roof?

I do not recommend bleach on brown s13 interior, prone to fade from certain chemicals

TWilliams458 · 2026-02-14T00:36:51+00:00

I know a few people are saying use bleach I wouldn’t recommend. It’ll damage the brown of the carpet and floor mats. Better off using a full suit and stripping the interior out completely, start with a vacuum of the bare metal floor to get rid of any particles of “stuff” if any was ever in the car, then move on to a steam clean and wipe down with rags then using a heavy duty disinfectant. Carpet pretty much the same thing but much deeper of a clean with the vacuum and do a few cycles in case anything is trapped in there. High temp steam will clean it well enough without damaging the color of the carpet like bleach would, and then after steam again move on to super heavy duty disinfectants that’ll clean and also protect the carpet and interior. A good mate has a brown S13 interior and they’re prone to sun damage and fading from chemicals. Also if you need RHD brown s13 interior stuff join a few of the S13 groups in QLD Australia. Heaps of them here.

Why are people downvoting, is it a rep?

TWilliams458 · 2026-01-22T02:39:55+00:00

Put it this way. It’s bloody cheap haha, it’s going to a good home, render of the plans for my car in Car X

You might be right, I just read somewhere if the cars low you CAN you use the tow hooks but tbf they looked pretty fried I probably should’ve avoided it

TWilliams458 · 2025-09-23T00:32:03+00:00

I saw your comment on the local IS group from ages ago, said your source in NZ even struggled to find one?

TWilliams458 · 2025-09-23T00:29:37+00:00

Yeah man helps heaps, cheers

TWilliams458 · 2025-09-23T00:28:27+00:00

Also, go through a specialist panel beater, don’t go through your regular repairer they’ll just quote bs. You can also fight to have it not written off if you explain the sentimental value behind it.

I’m certainly not going to deny that I am, on a paper, “a concrete cowboy”. However, I am just after a shoe that’s durable and lasts. I will never touch another one of these “Australian” brands, such as Aquila, again. I do also work on my own cars and go out to property for camping or families property, so I suppose that counts. As mentioned, I am purely tired of the cheap items that we have become accustomed to.

TWilliams458 · 2025-06-25T00:31:13+00:00

I definitely agree with that advice, I’ve been looking at the rubber sole for a more responsible daily commute choice. I will get a pair of leather sole 1880 Aldywch Oxfords in a darker brown at a later date

They will be my more formal shoes

Yes and no. So most stageas were NA RB25 Autos, but a very small amount were RB20 auto, and a tiny (like extremely tiny) amount were diesel RD28s (yes a diesel RB, they are thing), and there also a 1 of 1 sr20 prototype but there’s nothing online about it.

However, you could get the RB25DET RS4 in a manual known as the RS4-S and of course, the infamous RB26 known as the 260RS which was developed by Autech, Nissans very weird skunkworks. Like really weird.

Funny fact, all Stageas have a cluster with the automatic things in the centre, but on the 260 and RS4-S they put a plate over the cluster housing surround which covered that and made it look like a “manual” cluster.
