Well my Autech failed compliance due to some under body rust.

So i will be getting it sent to me in Perth and i will be parting it out.

This is mainly an EOI atm. I don't really want to, or have the time to part it out i would rather sell the shell as a roller.

Basically everything will be there minus: Engine, box, loom, rad, brakes, rims, maybe the fmic.

So it will be a complete car. Has had the front bar, bonnet, front guards and side skirts repaired and resprayed.

I Dont know what its worth as a roller? I know i baught a R34 as a roller in the same state for 8k so i'll start it there as it is a genuine Autech 260RS series 2.

And obviously the shell CANNOT BE COMPLIED.

The car has HKS catback and HKS coilovers, everything else is stock.

Id be keen on a few parts mate if you decide to sell it off for bits.

  1. The HKS Catback system
  2. Would also really love the dash guages and center consol 3 guage cluster
  3. Steering wheel if its the Momo one
  4. The front bumber if its in good nic

Cheers mate

shotgun centre console and handbrake setup if you are willing to sell it. pm me :)

ps sorry to hear :thumbsup:

Mike, grab the clutch and brake pedal and brackets, along with the master cylinder.

You will need them for any stagea manual conversion.

I will be getting the car sent to me next week, takes 14days approx to get to me so say mid october. I will asses what everything is like and go from there. At this stage i would rather sell as a roller as i dont have any where to store the car whilst i strip it, but i will see how i go.

I have had people pm me with interest in the following so far:

Coilovers

Pedals/handbrake

bodykit

as well as the replys above.

once i figure out what im doing i will get some prices out and 1st in 1st served.

Thanks Guys.

yeah thanks! completely slipped my mind!

I maybe interested in the front and rear bar, mainly the rear through. And also coilovers. but I think someone already dibbed some of that stuff, let me know if there are still available when the time comes. And also momo steering wheel

Thanks for all the interest guys, just an update.

I have baught a stock series 1 stagea and were going to swap everything over.

Will also be getting a second opinion on the rust when the car gets here and trying to transfer the complience to someone here in WA.

So "IF" the rust is repairable and can transfer the complience then i'll do that.

If not then i will have some parts from both the Series 1 and my Autech for sale.

So once the car gets here in 2 weeks and i can asses everything i will post up more info.

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
