hey guys..

looks like ive found a buyer for my car and just wondering what sort of things are picked on for an rwc?

my car isnt big on the mods so all that stuff 'should' be ok..

pod filter, exhaust (that isnt too loud at all), not low etc

will they pick on things like the SAFC, turbo timer, boost bleed valve etc

my car isnt bodgy and im not looking for some backyard operation, but does anyone recommend any places in the box hill/doncaster area to get it done?

cheers in advance

james

most places wont pick up on boost controller, safc. Turbo timer is legal, it's not being in your car while it is running that is illegal.

They will omly pick you on exhaust if it is really loud, they wont measure the db or anything. Most places will get you for oiled pod or pod not secure, but only some will get you for having pod + cooler.

They will all usually measure height.

Then you have the other normal things, all lights in operation, safety devices like seatbelts etc, tyre tread, window screen cracks, brake pads etc

A turbo timer is not an approved modification.

It is illegal, whether you sit in the car or not.

Agreed.

Well if you are sitting in your car, then they can't tell the differance between the tt being on or your keys in the ignition :glare:.

It's never been legal; but i have never been pulled up on it, nor have i heard of anyone ever being pulled up on it.

If it is not wired up/working just unplug it and remove the unit for the rwc.

      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 🍻
