JDM Nissan Stagea 260RS RB26 Review | Ultimate GTR Wagon?

[@JigillyJoes1]

This channel is underrated with only 69k subs its deserves way more! Good job keep up the good work!

[@scrappydog132]

Thank you for pronouncing Stagea correctly! I have a RB25-Neo RS-Four Stagea, would love to have a drive in one of these beauties. Great review as always.

[@hunterworkman4576]

Dear Roads Untraveled, I thoroughly appreciate your content and the way it is produced. The production quality, the massive amount of work, and the amazing cinematography is phenomenal. I believe I speak for almost all the viewers when I say that we thoroughly hope your success continues and I personally believe that your content is definitly underapperciated as i have seen content creators with many more subscribers and nowhere near the effort and quality put into your videos, in closing I would like to say that your content is phenomenal and we all apperciate it.

[@zoommps3205]

Drove a Stagea 260RS a few months ago, it's a lovely drive. Wish I had of bought it. Was DRIPPING with aftermarket parts!

[@Bens_240Z]

Minor point; The WG(N)C34 Stagea isn't a Skyline wagon - it's based on the C34 Laurel. I've had an '96 RS4V since 2004 and it's a great car.

[@ChrisBotting]

Gotta admit - I don't really have much interest in some of these cars but the video quality, presentation, pace, music, and host really make feel like watching each and every show. Nicely done.

[@13thCP]

You hit it dead on when you said wagon of my dreams. Love it!!

[@flyingfridge243]

I watched the whole video because mine has been off the road for so long I miss the sound and this one sounds exactly like mine 😭 great video mate, great audio balance

[@ZachyStugotz]

Really cool to see you hop behind the wheel of a car like this. Definitely not something you see every day, even in the realm of JDM stuff. Super cool.

[@MrSpy13011]

When japan keeps all the good shit to themselves...

[@dionerueti1917]

Theres heaps over here in newzealand

[@AshAirheart1995]

We did nuke them lol

[@MechRider89]

The 2JZ is just far more reliable in every aspect. I used to want a skyline (R34) soo bad, but the Stagea is now in its place...R34 front end conversion = bliss. Like you say Markus its just such a nice car.

[@professorharenmans]

These new shoes are so much better, well done Marcus

[@RoadsUntraveled]

lol thanks

[@professorharenmans]

+Roads Untraveled you're welcome! Thank you for all the great content!

[@humanityfirst5490]

Nice Car, but man those wheels are real turds...

[@FudgeCakeShanker]

I think I've seen that Stagea before, awesome video guys, and amazing car! So rare

[@MycketTuff]

This car doesn't speak to me at all. Yet, here I am enjoying this video.

[@Sumdumdad]

This car + r34 front facia = THE SEX!

[@Fieldtaxi]

He speaks the truth^

[@montydurand467]

o shit waddup

[@Fieldtaxi]

AAYYYYY WADDUP

[@ThierryTheuns]

This car + stock front = perfect

[@NorthernExposure780]

Gorgeous 😍 Videos have really been improving!

[@TheJMedia]

The RB26 is my favorite engine of all time! Followed by the 2jz.

[@oprikawize]

you'd and CTS v wagon are the ultimate manual wagons. I would love to see a BMW 850csi manual on this channel

[@Tubring22]

Another well done video!

[@oz88og40]

i would like to see a gc8 or gf8 impreza wrx sti

[@driftjz]

Coming back from the updated video!

[@CodyMacRae1]

You guys should review a Toyota Aristo jzs161!

[@michaelmaag7122]

Later this week I will be going to see if I can import a 2001 Stagea RSFour with the RB25det and auto transmission as my daily so I'm pretty happy about that, Id love to go manual but it's a daily and this stagea you are reviewing to me seems more like a sports car than a wagon with the RB26 and manual, the ideal daily to me is something with a fun engine and an automatic for traffic

[@sam80sj47]

the 25det auto Stagea is gutless. I owned one for a year.

[@michaelmaag7122]

+Music 2015 Selection it would just be a daily, I honestly don't want it to feel quick, that's what my 300 is for

[@GTnumber1]

@8:35 --Nissan still makes practical, yet crazy and unique

[@massagtr]

I had a series 2 260RS, they have a lot more power than nissan says. Every tune my dyno sheet said 340hp at the wheels, as far as I know it was stock. I found also the gearing and the high redline, well I got a speeding ticket in 2nd doing 130 kph.

[@overnightpartsfromjapan01]

Cars like this are a great example of why Nissan went broke - the engineers and product planners had control of the company, not the accountants. It's mad and brilliant.

[@shadymattuk]

Considering that these go for around $11k up here, I would love to see what you could do with a $5k Subaru GTb with $6k put into it. Would be an interesting comparrison!

[@crikaxs]

Do a Audi 200TQ next time:) Maybe a wagon? Sedan is fine too. Then you get the feeling of them old germans. Nice channel,favorite.

[@naomiliu5201]

6:05 What's a NISMO Caldina exhaust?

[@giff74]

Super cool, but super rare... I like seeing those rare gems that are great drivers cars, but the rest of us may be able to purchase one without having to import one from Japan.

[@nkosicollier4984]

Smokey Nagata approves of this message 😎

[@GannonRacki]

Would love to see a Celica GT4 and Toyota Soarer

[@liamoreilly2008]

Yey! MR2 in the background :)

[@yakuzajzs]

the 2jz came in a sleeper form in the Toyota aristos too

[@Warmelon1]

Just found out about this channel yesterday and I have to say, these videos are amazing. Keep up the good work ! Would be cool to see a CRX video, btw :)

[@ElSikario100]

Nissan stagea single unicorn?

In my opinion double is better but who am i..

yea thats what mechanical stig explained in one of the videos when buildin it, but i was talking about turbos.... as unicorns

[@DavidJones-lg4ne]

What due you think in your opinion after driving both is better the stagea or the Toyota crown wagon

[@chrisgilbert7877]

another great video...thanks

[@PedroFTeixeira]

those wheels really look like sh*t

[@Beer_Dad1975]

The Stagea looks like shit, so it kinda works.

[@deet4895]

+Matthew Sharpe have you seen the (M35) second generations? those are a looker, but I totally agree that these first gen look horrible.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Dee T Yes they are very common around here. I think they are a big improvement for sure, but I wouldn't say they were a looker. A Mazda 6 wagon is IMO a looker - but sadly they aren't much of a drivers car, whereas the Stagea definitely is.

[@deet4895]

The third generation mazda 6 is a great car to drive (sporty) but it won't blow your socks off that's for sure but it's damn good for what it is, It a pitty the wagon version isn't sold in northamerica.

[@NoPointOfThis123]

+Matthew Sharpe I'm in the US and they are not available here at all until they become over 25 years old, but I still like it. I agree though, the second generation looks a lot better.

[@Howwegrowweed]

how about a mostly stock mk3 supra. 1000hp supra was awesome, would be good to see its beginning.

[@jdm132]

Interesting piece of engineering i see

[@kraft1515]

You should upgrade your mic set up for the podcast, would make it a lot easier to listen to with better sound quality

[@RoadsUntraveled]

+kraft1515 yes we mentioned that on today's podcast :p we've set aside about $1000 for a budget start podcasting setup.

[@helppls4306]

A perfect family car doesn't exi-

[@AlexMel85]

Hello! Do you have any interesting video about Audi Quattro B2 or Audi90/80 Quattro?

[@Brandonvscars695]

As hard as it'll be to get on the show could you try to get a R31 Skyline on? Id offer mine to be featured but it along with me are in Australia lol

[@renatodumaresq]

Good timing on that first line! Did you get it on first try?

[@RoadsUntraveled]

haha yes! ;)

[@GTnumber1]

@8:35 --Nissan still makes practical, yet crazy and unique

[@mrdaykurutakuchannel]

I just drove this car in my MT5DX game!

[@ciarangoldrick4121]

Marcus do the 2jz chaser. I'm not sure if you or smoking tire already did it but please do it. It's a perfect daily. A four door 2jz what could be better. Except maybe this stage with a skyline front end

[@RoadsUntraveled]

We filmed a 1JZ Chaser last month in case you missed that episode :p Maybe one day in the future we'll get our hands on a 2JZ build!

[@ciarangoldrick4121]

+Roads Untraveled thanks i must have missed that vid

[@ThaneDukeHeineken]

As it's a 5-speed, is it the 33 GTR engine and gearbox or just the gearbox is from the 33?

[@manveerghuman5276]

I'm guessing it's the R33 since Autec made it in that time period

[@eeterp32]

yes GTR engine, RB26DETT

[@BubbleeeyLive]

The entire drive train is basically lifted from a r33 gtr

[@smbmxdirt3427]

I live in abbotsford how have I never seen you driving around

[@kingofswordsaquarius4036]

what's up with the wheels?

[@Ken-vl4wk]

When I was living in Japan I was told that Stagea GTR was faster than Skyline GTR because of the aerodynamics.

[@ThierryTheuns]

Andre N Salesman?

[@shs646]

haha. Ya I guess all the extra weight makes It faster too

[@TheMegajr]

Can´t see why. It´s heavier and longer

[@RastaCsonti]

Hello! 1. I like your videos, watching them for a while, keep it going! 2. If I can make a suggestion I would like to see an episode with a Mazda Rx-7 FB and FC. Would be great! #Rotarylife Also Nissan Z31 300ZX would be nice!

[@ronanmcnamee2008]

Love to compare this car to the Audi Rs2. Two special quick wagon's from the 90s

[@Basomga]

Aren't those tuned by another company, outside nissan?

[@architectthecarguy]

we want a review of a 3000gt or Dodge stealth!! twin turbo of coursse!

[@qwerty-fc9ix]

5:17 did that guy on the RV flashed his headlights at you because there were cops ahead?

[@malteserwfj]

Awesome intro

[@Goodezilla]

Hey...I have one of those motors too! :) Cool video!

[@PacificCoastAuto]

Nice to see you here.

[@Goodezilla]

+PacificCoastAuto heeeey, you too Derek!

[@MrCoolguy098]

Wow, suprised to see both of you here! It is really an amazing community here and around jdm cars and gtrs in general. But PacificCoastAuto, I've been watching configtr's videos and I wonder if it is possible to get become a member on your website from norway. I'm in norway and I'm 17 years old and I would love to import a car as my first car.

[@v8sky23]

I believe it to be 0.7 bar which is 10 psi from the factory, at least that's what's going on with my r32 GTR.

[@balcyvr6]

If I saw one od those in person, ya id freak out lol

[@j.scaffnetti5437]

These things are cool

[@KevinMinato]

Oh damn, are those rear windows suposed to be at that angle

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Yes! haha that's completely stock. I know, first time I saw a Stagea it was the weirdest thing. I've seen multiple and they're all like that.

[@sam80sj47]

Nissan skyline R32, Laurel, Cefiro, maxima all have the same.

[@Fieldtaxi]

What is the song that's is playing from the start of the video

[@rishivarman944]

A wagon with a skyline gtr engine Nissan should bring this back

[@ulises4697]

keep it up!!!

[@cobratoxic]

dont forget the Juke gtr that is very cool

[@mrackelito1]

Great video, however, as much as you're praising the RB26, why didnt you rev it? Not a single time did we hear it sing, ohwell

[@chriscole9621]

if i saw one of these i would flip! even before i saw the engine!! its an autech!! so rare

[@evancenyaki4300]

5:54 fact 👌😊

[@Loohikes]

i swear i saw this very car on pacific coast auto

[@zbrembo]

yea I remember wondering about that funky front strut tower bar

[@jooj240]

I really miss those videos, fucking port

[@mrtoyotatrd6126]

So the rb26 comes from the factory, or is this a custom build?

[@RoadsUntraveled]

+Vortec 3501999 RB26 comes from the factory, checkout the first video we did with this car! It was basically stock.

[@josephrowe849]

It's like a Skyline and a Subaru wagon put together.

[@88laserbeam]

review a daihatsu hijet or a mitsubishi delica plz 😂 I'd like to see more kei cars lol

[@joshhall2323]

over here in nz you see them all the time but never with rb26s lol

[@edwinbrycepillay7291]

how much would a stagea with this spec cost ?

[@mrdaykurutakuchannel]

Pls review an S15 Spec R for me pls! I have that Stagea 260 in my MT5DX game!

[@dfolland3867]

A 3000 gto would be awesome!!

[@SALTYDATTO]

Sad how expensive these will be soon...unreal how much gtr's are now.

[@Bishoff03]

Nice car but whats up with the back window

[@michaelpollitt9128]

1j or 2j Cressida review ?

[@brandonbeckster]

Still patiently awaiting the e30 video's.

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Both the turbo E30's we had lined up to drive had problems and are being re-built/repaired. We do however have a crazy E30 build I think you will like, and we're filming that in the next 2 weeks or so.

[@ChromeStacks]

dream car that is...

[@subarufan422]

there is a white autech in kelowna

[@MuzzaMiki]

4:13 that was the quietest drive by ive ever heard

[@balcyvr6]

2 years USA. If a car is found and the money is there, there will be one of these in my driveway in January 2021.

[@Fjewt]

1jz sounds the best for me, but the other inline 6 engine are not for behide either

[@dubi127]

Plese, try to find a good 2J GS300 or maybe a volvo 850R :D

[@audiwankenobi361]

just need to get the wheel fitment right and I'd be perfect in my opinion.

[@manveerghuman5276]

The Nismo Juke RS???

[@ghostcar]

Oh gawd that music - I thew up a little.

[@DashboardJesus999]

S1 front end swap??

[@davidgray210]

Find a 04-05 Forester XT with mods. Or come to Ontario and review mine (300 whp/345 wtrq)

[@Darkan191]

Maybe older Nissans like Skyline R30

[@zhangzheng888]

perfectly timed intro #gg

[@KevinMinato]

370z is a pretty cool car nissan still makes

[@carsaregood911]

It's outdated as hell

[@KevinMinato]

ahh, did not know. looks nice though

[@carsaregood911]

Yeah it does, but it's been out for 7 or so years

[@mrdaykurutakuchannel]

Please, Nissan, make a brand new Z/or facelift (at least with Q60's VR30), make a new GT-R (I admit I like the facelift), and oh, please, revive the Silvia family as a 2 Liter Turbo FR drift fairy it's known all over the world! I even wanna upgrade my miniature Dodge Magnum into a Stagea 260RS!

[@gohardorgohome7687]

Awesome car except those wheels tell the owner to look for better ones

[@mewwew411]

Beautiful

[@freespace303]

What year is it?
