No such thing as an official 4 door GTR. Any that are labeled as such are AWD conversions with GTR parts. Nothing more nothing less.

Anyone who says anything else is ill-informed.

Incorrect.

LOL.you mean...wagon....stagea...rs260

I like your way of thinking! :rolleyes:

Never heard of Autech, eh?

HPI tested one a few years back- Martin Donnon reckoned you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference in most cases.

Not exactly common though.

Correct.

Autech is kinda like Nismo - they're a factory-certified tuner (just like AMG, HSV, FPV/Tickford, etc.) who do special work for the Nissan factory, anything from the (very rare, but very real) 4-door R33 GT-Rs, to the 260RS Stagea (basically a series 1 RS-Four or series 2 RS-Four S Stagea with extra body strengthening and R33 GT-R running gear), through to modifications for people with disabilities who need wheelchair access to their cars, etc.

I do not if it is the same one, but I know the guy who bought the first one in approx 4 years ago under the compliance rules. It was a write off in japan and came over needing a full front and new roof after it had hit a pole.

Glad we now have SEVS.

There was a copy recently for sale on carsales. It was built by skyline imports and had the pumped rear guards and doors fitted and RB26 running gear. It was originally a non turbo sedan. You can or use to be able to buy the panels from nissan

yeh darrin thats the one, i drove it about a year ago, i had no idea if it was the real thing or not, but i believe it was imported by skyline imports

Yeah I knew of 2 for sale at the same time a while ago, both white. The one that was a write off was instantly recognisable as it had a sunroof...no GTR has a sunroof, I already had a 33 GTR at the time and they tried ti swear it was real and no accident history.

Theres a rb26 conversion in a 4 door gts4 in NSW too, white...the guys was on here a few years ago and came along to a few events...

I'd be surprised if one of the real autechs were here but I guess you never know.

As for importing them, pretty sure it is still legal.....once a chasis and motor have been approved through SEVS you can bring in different combos....so 33 sedan with an rb26 should be legal, as long as the car and engine are standard

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
