Forgies or not.. It doesn't matter. What matters is what comp ratio the given piston returns.

Cam timing, engine temp, piston/bore clearance and the gauge its self all vary the read out.

Mine with was up over 150psi in all cylinders, all exactly the same apart from cyl 3 or was it 4!? :laugh: that was only 1psi down. BUT the motor was stone cold.

I'm just about to give it another comp test *with the same guage* after 50,000km's so it shall be interesting how it comes up.

Raa told me 5 percent in their little box on the report. whatever that means. RB25Det was at 125,000kms. enlighten me...
Probably the compression results are within 5% of one another which is acceptable but, they should've still provided a reading for each cylinder in their report. Results for a stockish RB25DET in good condition are generally between 140 - 170psi(newish engine).

Its just a comp guage with 5 little lines between the big numbers. :( I crank until it stops moving.

Unsure on the brand have never taken notice. The old man bought it many years ago, he's not one to buy cheap, he always spends the little bit more to get the better one.

The guage reads out both in bar and psi.

I'm not concerned on the actual final number as it doesn't mean a lot, I'm just stoked how spot on each cylinder is. :D

The old rb20 varied by 5psi when it had supposively done 67,000km's.

      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 🍻
