Yeah I do actually, but I might have sourced one in Melbourne for him.

Steve, call me on 0406 142 529

Thanks for your help Dennis. I am going to get the one from Yahoo (the second one you told me about).

Cheers

Thanks for the help guys. The mighty DR30 is now back in my safe hands and is good as new.

You can get the parts through Nissan Australia (I got both a fan switch for $170 and the rear window for $500) but obviously it takes a couple of weeks to ship from Japan. I am very impressed at how well Nissan supports parts for imports. My mechanic took care of all the running around.

My matching front seat arrived from Slidewize and I got that put in, got the aircon regassed (also replaced the seals as it was set up for the old R12 gas) and put in a new iPod Alpine deck. Looking forward to getting out in summer and doing some cruising with the kids (they love the car).

My god, I got the lot for less than half this, both windows, actuators, motors and all for under AU$250 landed. Sorry Steve, but I would never have expected you to replace it with NEW and I couldn't find anything even close to the condition of the ones I got, so I wasn't prepared to let it go.

As for the switch, what fan switch are we talking about that cost you $170.00?

And where did your mechanic go to get Nissan Australia to help, because I went to Macarthur Nissan on a couple of parts today and got zero response.

Cheers, D

"and put in a new iPod Alpine deck. "

Ever think this might be why it got broken into in the first place?????

It's my belief, the flashier the stereo in a car the more some other prick will want it and when they do, they don't give a damn about what they damage to get it.

My PNV has a post mount Beltek radio/cassette in the dash, connected to a Kenwood Equaliser, to Front, Rear & Sub amps driving the speakers and subs with a Kenwood 10 stacker in the boot hooked up through FM modulation, but in the dash and visible to Mr Arsehole looking in, it's OLD SCHOOL and they're not interested.

It is very plain looking and I now remove the faceplate. I see your point but the car is now secure.

      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 🍻
