Edited by stasis

As you all know i got the car today. I noticed the put on the rims back to front. So i took it to a tyre place for an alignment after the wheels have been swapped from front to back. The camber on the passenger side was way off compared to the drivers side. funnu they couldnt match the camber for both sides they came very close though. I think onedrivers side is 1.75 and the other is1.25 or something. What should the setting be. The car is sitting 350mm front and back from center wheel to the arches.

second thing have you guys heard of a suspension called JECS? cos thats what it is on the car noe and thats all i can make out from.

couple of other issues ocasinally the car will auto lick itself (doors)

Keyless entry works find but cannot disable the larm. after opening the doors via key or remote and i dont put in the key to the ignition the alarms go off. So probably i need a wiriing diag. (anybody knows where i can get one? originals of course if i can).

other than that its find. Ben from Race pace inspected the car and everything seems to be allrtie . Had the car on the hoist and everything. other than that everything is allrtie at the moment.

my opinion, get rid of whatever dodgy alarm is in and get a decent one installed. auto lock is usually because you disarm the car but don't open the door, it assume it was a mistake and locks again.

yea i know but this one got a paging system to it. probably i will leave it ad it is first other than that it wirks fine the alarm works fine.

another thing i forgot that its got a turbo timer in it as well. but sometimes it works sometimes dont. o dpmt knw wheter it works on the oil temp or not. might have to get an autp elec to check it out.

my father is an auto electrician, they have people coming in all the time with dodgy alarms, they usually end up leaving with massive bills, so you are probably better off just putting up with it or getting a new one installed

yea probably i will put up with it first its not a main priority.

ok i was just wondering does the 260rs suppose to have a switch that controls 2wd or 4wd? Also are they suppose to have the head light height adjustments? cos mine doesnt have any of them.

Isn't the headlight adjustment thing just a little screw and you use a phillips??

tighten it and the headlights shine down, loosen it and they shine upwards??

S2's with xenon headlights actually have (might have been optional not sure) an electrical headlight adjustment, so you can adjust them up and down, something to do with carrying extra weight, and because the xenons are so bright, you can adjust them down.

the only adjustment you can make to the torque split is a button located to the left of the steering wheel just above the handbrake on the rs4 so maybe look in the same place on your 260 although your handbrake isnt there its in the centre console

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
