I can confirm that the 260's still have the rb25 build plate. These cars were bought new by Autech then stripped down and rebuilt. Still sold with factory warranty though!

Hi guys, so how do i check the no. of made? I am thinking of bringing my 260rs S2 back to Perth, so can any big brother tell me how much import tax that i have to pay (base on the cost of normal stagea?) And since i have own the car since new 1999/2000 so i can use the personal import scheme for import, however i still need to go thru. the inspection centre for licence, so do i have to strip off all the engine mods in order to pass the inspection? Pls help!!!

import tax is 15% of value of vehicle including the cost of shipping and plus 10% gst. Not sure how you put a current value on the car as you have owned it since new though

ic but this 260rs is kind of a special case coz the plate is 2.5lt stagea, so do u think i can escape from paying a high tax by saying this is just another type of standard nissan stagea which costs $15,000?

I personally hate them...b@st@rds!!! Do not go by the prices at there shop, they are absolute w@nkers and have a huge markup on their cars. they give you sh!t all for your car and then add heaps on top! :(

hehehhehe if your thinking of selling your 260 then i would have someone interested in talking to you about your car :):ermm:

really wildcat? :laugh: they seems to have a lot of good machines there...GTR34, RX7, EVO6...i dont mind selling my car there (but this is a white one) coz i only stay in Perth less than a month per yr. But with all the mods that i have in the car i think it would be quite hard to pass thru. inspection centre...the worst thing is the car cant be turned back to stock since it was tuned by Japs technician it does required a lot of works and $$$ to go backward...If ur friends would like to know more on the car, email me at [email protected] :O

Try to stay on topic, if you dont have info on how many 260RS's were made, start another thread or keep it to PM's!

Thanks

Yeah I wana know how many!!!!! :(

Err didnt Wildkat solve this question about a page ago???

Errr so what are we still doing here then? Oh, you were having a crack because you were off topic, I get it now. :(

I prefer the acurate answer of Zero Rs 260's were made... and yes I would also like to own a 260 RS some day.

actually import duty is 10% these days... they dropped it a while back.

at the risk of sounding rude roughly how much are you looking to sell it for? :)

i really have no idea? i own the car since new $80,000 and i have chuck in a lot of mods and $$$ into the car (that may not worth a cents if i'm putting up a car for sale)the car has run 38,000kms, so how much do u guys think it worth? Btw if i bring my car over via personal import, does it mean that i can still pass the inspection centre with all the mods like air intake, fuel pump, big injectors, fmic....? ;)

I thought I would dig up this old thread

A "2001" model 260RS went thru the auctions today in JP

Only 15,000ks start bid was 2,500,000yen $28K

This would have to be one of the last WC34 Stagea 260RS I would think

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
