Hey guys

First of all i would like to say thanks for all the info everyone has shared here it has helped me alot although i havent been posting i have been watching you all :)!! Neways down to business! I have purchased a silver 97 Autech 260rs Stagea!! The beast is being shipped this week then it comes to Brissy to be complianced. It has 80,0000ks on the clock and is as stock as a rock! (which i am very happy about) I cant wait till its ready and will be keen for cruises when ever and where ever from sunny coast to the gold coast! I hope to see some of you guys out on cruise nights! There are some pics attached (hope it worked). As for mods I am planning to get around 360rwkw with all the good stuff, new turbos, fmic, afm, injectors, cams, powerfc etc etc etc this will take some time as a uni student working part time is difficult but i will save my dosh ^^

Chris from Boostimports.com.au handled my importing and did all the organising and chasing for me and i have to say it was PERFECT, so easy everything was handled brilliantly and i cant recommend the guys at Boost Imports enough!! A++++

Cant wait to see some of you on the streets!

Cheers

carter

Hey Carter, Very nice pick-up there, one of the best Autech's that I've seen. Looks ultra good in Silver, (and fairly unusual for a 260RS). Very clean car.... any engine bay pics?

Welcome to the fray...... enjoy your new toy! oh the waiting..... worse than being 6 and waiting for Xmas!! :ninja:

Cheers guys!

I live in Burbank close to Mt Gravatt Capalaba Road. Yeah i was lucky that i got such a clean one, it was my luck that Chris had a trip scheduled to Japan like a week before i asked him to find me one :D So he found the best one he could in person (makes me feel alot better rather than blind importing ^^). There are engine bay pics at Chris's office ill get them emailed to me, but the engine bay is just as schmick as the outside and it started and drove like a dream so no worries there.

Yeah the wait is a bitch :( Its annoying opening up My Documents and seeing the folder preview of all the pics... torture really :P Yeah as i said cruise anytime anywhere aslong as i dont have work ^^.

Thanks for the replies!

carter

p.s. Micah, Chopper my cattle dog will be waiting for you :P :laughing-smiley-014: :D

do they all have the strip between the speedo and tacho, like the auto's have to show you what gear you are in?

just looks weird seeing it in a MANUAL 260rs..

sweet car wish mine was 260rs. good luck with getting to 350rwkw plan.

i was about to reply only Mungel had already mentioned it

i think your car is not quite as stock as you think the auto cluster looks way out of place with ypur manual shifter. so that leavs a couple of things it's had manual converson?, it's had the cluster changed? or the nissan factory got mixed up? wonder what happend???? :)

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
