Hi Guys, not been on here before, but thought that i would introduce myself seeing i am the proud owner of a 1997 260RS Autech Stagea.......its still on the docks in Japan, but im already itching with anticipation for its arrival.

I cant seem to find too much information on here about the 260RS, so if you know of any good links, please let me know........does anyone know how many of these there are in Australia now?

anyways, looking forward to wasting plenty of my work time on here when i should be working.

Cheers

Tim

Welcome Tim!

Tell us more so we can all drool!

A couple of guys on here with 260's, your best resource is probably R33 GT-R info as they are very closely related.

Cheers

Luke

So far this is the info i have received, I have a good mate who imports/complies and loves the stagea's, so the process was relatively easy, we had a guy on the ground in Japan who took 20+ photos and did an extensive report of the car.......so far this is the info i have.

If anyone needs help with their imports and compliance, PM me for my friends details, he is probably the most thorough and trustworthy importer i have come across.

Two questions

Where in AUS is it going to?

Are you going to get wheels for it? Seriously, I REALLY want to buy some stock 260RS wheels. Sell them to me...

[Herbietjh]

Alex,

Its coming to Melbourne, and yes I already have 18's for it (see below), so the wheels will be up for sale.

I'll need them for compliance etc, but will def contact you when they become available.

How much did something like that set you back?

Cool at least now i know theres 2 Autechs in Melbourne now. Well you got that right mine was the first and i just got it just over 4 months so... Mine is a silver grey one. Who are you getting complied with from memory theres only one place in melbourne who complies 260rs. Keep us up dated. And how much you paid for your beast?!
