myeah from experience moving out of home is great...but it costs a shit load...

buying a new skyline is good cause its new, and they are nice and nothing is bound to go wrong

putting a stupidly large engine in a skyline, is fun you learn f**ks loads....host bbqs meet people...and have many problems and issues that will piss you off, but you have an awesome sounding and awesomely quick car that handles well by the end.

what would Jesus do? he would nail himself to the cross again cause he likes mercs.

Ha i wish i had a money making machine, my R32 is nice but alas it is an auto, and just doesn't seem to have the grunt it may once have had. i want something with heaps of grunt, i have looked around at used Skylines for sale but unless i was to buy one from an SAU member there is no real way of knowing the quailty of the mods added.

if i could find a nice RB26 that wasn't rapped i would consider dropin that in long before a V8+ conversion

Technically you could achieve all three if you put a new engine into your R32 and used it as a house.

:laughing-smiley-014: the only reason a young fella like me should own a 4 door is because they are just so dam easier to sleep in the the Skylines haha

      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 🍻
