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:

Looks great, welcome aboard

Which suburb do you live in?

......so I can find where you live and come steal your front bar lol:)

Very nice car! Look forward to cruising with you

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

of course im alive hugh just hadnt been logging on. Will be back into oz early aug. heheh!!! good to see you guys are happy and well and my new found evil twins :thumbsup:

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???? :)

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
