Those designs above look really good! The red GTS one is alot better than the previous ones in this thread.

I dunno about the black GTS though, maybe if that S was in silver..

R3Load, the initial design is to be credited to DARKBOY, its his inital drawing. ;)

But you are right its better than previous designs, i changed the "S" to look a little more "authentic" when compared to the original "R".

The "T" will hopefully satisfy those GTT owners!!

I wanted a black for the the front grill of my car and a red for the rear.

The red will highlight the tail lights and the Black will suit the no mess look front i am creating.

SIK14 what do you think , can you do this??

DARKBOY can we use this combined design?

:D

I quite like what you've done with the S actually and I understand your reasons for adding the 'serifs' to it. I merely designed the S that way because it reflects the S from the Skyline logo.

Anyway well done!

TY will do ...

Hey Ronin33 ummm this is a little off topic but where did you get your front bar put on it looks pretty good from your sig :)

Gday Chris ,

I have a couple of pics posted here if you'd like a closer look.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...p;#entry2595685

I got it from Carmate in NSW.

http://www.carmate.com/old/

Item code: NSGTS97GTR2FB

I had it painted from a local paintshop and fitted it myself.

I mounted the indicators behind the mesh and it worked out pretty well i think.

Be aware, there are those who had bad experiances with them and those like myself who had no worries.

There is a thread around here somewhere. I tried to find it but but no good.

Have chat to the asian fella there if you go that far, the other fellas a wanker (IMO).

:P

Ok this is the story so far ...

1.It can be done.

2. The badges will be made of an aluminium backing plate and UV resistant resin cut to sise in our colours of choice (the cheapest way being if we all choose the same colours) and double sided tape.

3. I need someone who is good at drawing (or modeling) to do a detailed drawing for me to send to the company so that they can program the machines to do the work.(I'll have a go at it but I'm not the best.

4. They haven't given me a price yet but it looks as though its going to be fairly cheap because I can buy them through the business.

5. Once they are ready to be made I'll start a group buy. ;)

p.s. I'm doing this all by phone conversation and I'm having some difficulty so bear with me please ;)

sweet, loox like this is underway, ive asked ever one ive seen for a gts badge. damn fools with gtr badges, maby we should buy some and place them on fake gtr's. hehe.. cant wait to see the end result of these, ima buy a couple for backup, incase they get stolen on the car :).. hey, i think a straight silver gts badge would like awesome, only if it could be stainless steal looking i guess.. like that greenish r33 in the fast 4s mag, if you all know it, i think some one in this topic had a pic as there signature.

Count me in on a GTS Badge too!! The billet looking one from Ignition DVD is by far the best option. Then if you want to personalise it its up to you... :laugh:

      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 🍻
