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.

Nismo 260RS http://www.fantasycars.com/sedans/html/stageanis.html

Autech 260RS http://www.fantasycars.com/sedans/html/stagea.html

i have no idea if there is a "standard" 260rs

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

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
