hey garry!

just remember that if you go after market turbo, or even hiflow, running an engine management system of some kind would be a good idea :P

Good idea. But nowhere near essential :)

lol yeah ... TRU TRU

but i dont wanna run not much more power, say even if i get to 300RWHP i'd be happy with that!!

i dunno wat the problem is, but didnt smoke dismorning or going to work at all... could be pcv needs a clean + pipes!!

still a new turbo / re/build wuld be good 2 :rofl: just need a good place 2 get it

cheapest option is a KKR 430 or 480 (laggy) turbo $700-800 with custom dump $170 otomoto.com.au

2.2k will get you a HKS GT RS

Buy a R34 turbo ~$450 and u can hi-flow it $1.3k and it will support 360/370rwhp

but at that stage you will need a fair few more supporting mods

i suggest the Jay Car electronic boost controller kit ($80) to control boost or a TurboTech from ebay $29

a Apexi SAFC 2nd hand will be $250-300 and this will net you alottttttt of your power

I mean a R34 turbo will support 280rwhp with everything lining up eg manifold, water, oil lines

and if u want more power after that u can hi flow it, it has a larger rear housing (same as the VG30) so it will support more power then a Hi-Flow R33 turbo

I suggest getting a dump/front pipe too

3inch turbo Exhaust

Front Mounted Intercooler

pod filter

Manual/Electronic boost control

Safc <---------- makes alot of the power with a good tune

Fuel pump (if you wanna play it safe)

will net you 280rwhp+

I got the turbo from Jshop at the time, Not sure if he can get another one for that price but yer it was a ausome bargen, my sig tell the story.

On a R33 you wouldnt need to change you ECU as the Hybrid is a mix of 32rear housing "Quick spool times" and the R33 intake, But it was BB and from what I was told could support up to 25PSI

I took it off my self, they only repair/rebuild or get new ones in they dont actuallt take them off the car for you.

Also forgot to add the turbo is now running a standard 10 psi with out a boost controller, can only go up now haha :P (with a controler)

      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 🍻
