97 Stagea Autech.

[RBPOWA-(TJ)]

hey. that looks good, is that a Abflug front bar or what ever there called ....

whats the deal with the rear window ? no tint

[DaveB]

Ohhhhh, nice. Brilliant. R34GTR rims and all. That's awesome. Pity boot glass has been replaced with non-UV cut glass. Pity is series 1. But it's got an RB26 and a strong driveline... bring on the 300+AWKW

[GoldZilla]

Ooooh, nice! Congratulations, dude!

I'm guessing from the trade plate that you're in Queensland (and it's a very wild guess, based only on the first letter of the plate)?

[southern_tango]

[leetom]

wll done pal smart look'in 260 hope you get lot's of enjoyment out of it, and by the way nothing at all wrong with s1's a lot of people prefer the look of s1's over s2's

have fun.

[skidkid]

YYYuuummm. If had time/ chance again 260 YES!!!

[GTR91]

Thanks for the kind words guys. The last thing I needed was someone saying my new ride looked like crap.

Abflug front bar? I honestly have no idea what the kit is. The rear window is tinted, but I think its an aftermarket tint.

Nah mate, Victoria

Yes I love the mirrors , I've removed this today as its going to compliance sometime next week.

mitchy_

Yeah I think the no rails look is best for the 260

leetom

I had to choice of a series 2, but chose the series one. Just something about it, l find it more of an aggressive look.

The car came with an N1 engine and N1 turbo's. A really nice remote oil cooler, HKS exhaust, HKS cams and cam gears, Tien shocks, HKS Pods, HKS dump pipes - I think whoever owned it in Japan really liked HKS

Just about everything has been removed today for complaince. Once thats done and its rego'd, I've got a set of gold DBA slotted and crossdrilled disks to go on it and a bunch of other stuff I've had sitting in the garage waiting for its arrival. Cant wait to finally have it on the road.

Cheers.

[SHIZNT]

Not an Ab Flug kit.. have seen similar kits on Yahoo Japan Auctions.. Looks tops man, you'll definitely enjoy it!

[southern_tango]

noice car and congrats to your new found love!!

[GTR91]

Got the 260RS in the workshop ATM. Finally rego'd and road legal. Now the fun begins

Had a set of Tomei cams and cam gears installed yesterday. Also sprayed the engine with black wrinkle paint. Today a set of gold DBA slotted and cross drilled discs will go on (will take a pic when its completed) then the power FC and a bunch of other stuff.

Will post work as its done, sort of a build archive for anyone who's interested.

Cheers.

Edit: oops there's also a new water pump and radiator, though you can just see the new water pump in the pic.
