Cheers mate, keen to see a pic of your tow bar. I stalked your profile and didnt find any pics. + Sunroofs can be put in, but there not deal breakers for me.

Awesome a pic would be great Oscillo!

Seems to be alot against the 260rs, is there something I have missed? I would of thought with the same supporting mods that the rb26 would kill a 25, I figured 300kw was an easy attainable 'nice' figure with a 26 and I would need to get a fair bit more in depth to get that from a 25. I will be selling the WRX and replacing it with the stagea, so hoping for around the 13-15k mark, I figured adding around 5k of my own money wasnt bad for a 260rs because essentually the rex is dead money.

Towing is not a huge priority, as I have a commodore that currently tows, It's more of a nicety. In saying that, I havent towed the S13 anywhere in over 12 months so it isnt a regular occurance. I have looked at RS4S's, 1. my S13 has a RB25det and is modded, so im worried about being dissapointed and 2. The 260rs falls within my price range and is closer to my dream car, 3. I believe with the same mods (turbos, fuel, ecu) the 260 will net me more, 4. I would need to spend the cash to do a manual conversion, with factored in off the threads/costs on this forum, the price difference wouldnt be huge, maybe a couple of grand. Thanks for the responses!

Thanks very muchly mate I'll spend some more time looking in some more threads.

Hey guys, I ve been a member for a while now, and have purely used it for research purposes. I have an S13 Project as most nissan enthusiasts/drift pilots (im more of a wannabe) have. At this time in my life, as I now have 3 kids and a wife, my chances of owning a skyline have all but diminished, except for maybe in 10-15 years time I go thru the “mid life” crisis at 45 and buy my dream, R34 GTR. I have been doing some research into a suitable car, as currently I own a 2003 WRX, previous to that I had a turbo pulsar. I don’t think I could live with an N/A daily. Now I have completed numerious searches on this forum and the rest of the internet. I have a few questions regarding what I believe is the right choice for me. I still have a couple of months to decide as im away for work. So I need a car that can fit the family in if required, (Although I own a commonwhore for that) I would like to be able to tow with it, and it needs to be quick enough to not get boring. Looks are another big thing, I'm beginning to like the Stag looks (prob the only one lol) So a Series 2 C34 AUTECH 260rs has grabbed my attention. Here are the questions: I see a few people have had custom made towbars on Stag's, any of these people own S2 260’s? if so, how did you get around the rear bar? Do any of you tow a car trailer with a 260rs? Am I to believe that a S2 Stag Rb26dett is the same make as a R34 GTR? Therefore upgrade parts can be purchased from that series of motor ie a Power FC for a R34 GTR would be the correct one for the Stag. Whats with this “Oil gallery mod” on the rb26’s? Is the exhaust cam gear mod (retard 4 deg) on the rb25 have the same effect on the 26? Are there front mount kits available? the same as 34 gtr? I have seen a couple of Stag’s here and have read that twin sunroof’s were a factory extra? Was this the case for 260’s as well? Apart from rust under the side mirrors and spare well, what other things should I look for? Keeping in mind I wont buy one with more than 75k, kms on it. With swaybars and coilovers how do these cars handle, ie I know it wont be like my WRX, but are they very “boatish” when driven “spiritively”? Maintenance wise how demanding are these cars? I am a trade qualified diesel mechanic, so changing timing belts etc isnt hard for me. Thanks Steven
