Timing is everything... I zipped right up behind Col and his buddies coming onto the motorway heading for the drags :P

Got a little bit of video uploading now ... I wish people wouldn't stick their fat heads right infront of the camera. I couldn't get all the times from the left lane. :)

Anyway was a good arvo shame about your rear tyres Col that must of been frustrating.

Some Pics while I upload video.

What a downer way to end a fun evening, One of the heavy hitters in a rail failed to open the chute and, whilst it hasnt been confirmed it was rumored that it was a fatality. They closed the meeting early and we all left feeling a little humble.

but anyhooos, We had a blast until then. The blinged out bionic wheelchair ran a best of 14.1 and a best speed of 100.8 mph. Not a bad base to build a 12 second car from. Ben is hooked, couldnt get the grin off his face. His terminals indicate that when he learns to pedal the line properly hes gonna be quick. Col performed exactly to my prediction. TOOOO MUCH HORSEPOWER.LOL His terminals indicate that he should run low 12 or even 11s but until he gets it sorted hes just darn good entertainment. Sir skyline had similar issues, methinx there might be some cars wearing drag gumballs before the 17th rolls around.

Markimac if you dont get that gtr out there next time then you deserve every bit of shit fellow liners throw at you. That was pathetic. To make it worse you even went and parked beside me after that run. I just pretended i didnt know you,. hahahahahaha.

Great fun folks. be at the next one and join in.

      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 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
