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!

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???? :)

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?

      You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.

      Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.

      I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon

      TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
