Hi all. Just want to get some help from you guys. Thinking of selling my R33 gts-t and getting a Stagea.I am getting different answers about the 260RS and the AUTECH. Are they the same or not. I rang Shannons and got two different quotes for them . The Autech was about $300.00 dearer.

I then spoke to a guy who is selling one and he said they were the same. Could anybody give me the proper answer please.

I am yet to see a Nismo version

Yes Autech put all the good running gear in, so it is the same as a R33 GTR

Brembo brakes, upgraded interior, their own body kit, shocks and springs, drive shafts LSD etc

Thanks Darrin. There is an Autech up there in Q'land I may have to come up and have a look at.

Yeah I don't think we will see any Nismo ones here yet or ever

The Nismo model is a seriously limited edition RS 260 autech with a heavily tuned engine and further uprated brakes and suspension 0-60 mph in a claimed 5.1 seconds. The engine is similar to the z tune skyline

It is so rare that the phrase should be rarer than a nismo stagea (instead of rocking horse s**t)

And yes as previously stated an rs 260 is an Autech or the other way round

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
