I think you are not understanding what we are talking about. We understand what the "Stage" part means it just silly how everyone and every aftermarket group uses "Stages" as the naming format.

The below does NOT apply to you but it does most kids that mod cars and have no clue what they are doing. All they get sold on the "Stages" they have.

Stage zero = OEM stock
Stage 1 = I spent some money on an intake and trim bits. (Modding bug level 1)
Stage 2 = I spent more money and added an exhaust some other crap and maybe a canned tune. ( It feels so fast now)
Stage 3 = I spent more money and had internal motor work done like CAM, Injectors, header and other things. (it REALY fast now)
Stage 4 = Holy shit I can't stop or turn with all this power now so I spent money on big brakes and suspension. ( I should have done this at stage zero and learned to drive the car first)

Stage 5 = I spent more money on custom motor build and tune and the car is making crazy power and motor is running perfectly, but the person put 60 grand into a car worth 10 grand and now he cant sell it because they are in too deep. ( $$,$$$.$$)

Stage 6 = You are now converting it to a dedicated track car and removing a whole lot of crap that added too much weight. Cooling is a issue now and the OEM stuff will not hold up. Clutch or tranny is shot and needs to be upgraded.
* You also find out your suspension and brakes were great for the street but now need the really quality stuff which cost big money.

Stage = 7 You buy a second car because "RACE CAR" and the money continues to flow to different "Stages" of the aftermarket world.


Now we jump to Stage 15+
After many years and $$$ you may get a sponsorship and win some local races. Maybe you are great and win a national title and drive off into the sunset a very happy man with your winning race car driver dream completed.

Now it time to move to Florida play Bingo all afternoon talking about how you had a great car and won a lot of races. You will have Dinner at 3:30 - 4:00 pm and be in bed for Wheel of Fortune and wait for God to call your number.

HAHAHA Good luck on the sale of your S4
