Hey joe21m how did you go???

Few things that you should check is all your lines are not leaking (happened to me today). check it at the BMC and anywhere you have removed or loosened.

Also your not using the fluid thats comming out of the nipple are you cause alot of the time thats got plenty of bubbles in it and will cause you to just re air the system. It will look dirty but its really lots of fine bubbles.

Had a stab at doing mine but after the braided line conections leaked Ive given up and hopfully be done tomorrow.

Also have you checked all your connections???? have a look wipe them down and including all the ones one the caliper and anything you have loosened put pressure in the system like pump it 20 times with the engine on then check again. I just had a bith fight with mine with leaking connections due to the braided line having lots of connections at the BMC. But just finished and I was locking up everywhere (couldnt even get it to lock up before). Upgraded the BMC to BM44 (skyline and S14) and also GTR brakes and the thing stops on a dime. Stoked

are you bleeding all 4 brakes?

yes bleeding all 4, the brake pedal went hard when i did 3, then when i bled the last one (front driver side) it went back to what it was before, CRAP!

hey cefiro,

can you do me a favour...on your BMC can you check for me, when you screw the lid on, is it tight to screw on or does it go on fairly easy???

i noticed in your other thread your cap is yellow, mine is black? maybe its the wrong cap cause when i screw mine on its really easy to screw on...thinking maybe its not sealing properly hence no pressure in there???

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
