Ive been thinking about doing this for a while. As much as i love this car it didnt turn out to be big enough and meet our needs. I have found a new car i want so i am selling this now. If it dosnt sell here then i will trade it in, but i would rather sell it to someone who will appreciate it.

I have to say now this is not technically a "genuine" 1999 series 2 Autech 260RS. I baught a genuine one in Nov 07 and had the motor rebuilt etc etc. The car ended up failing complience due to some rust and it taking longer then 12months to get to the complience place due to a dodgy panel beater taking 7+ MONTHS to do a weeks work on the car. Please give me a ring regarding this so i can explain it more.

We got the car back and then baught another stagea with a blown motor and swapped EVERYTHING over. So the only non "genuine" autech bit is the actual shell. The car is licensed with RB26 etc.

All the mods and parts have travelled less then 5000km's.

The vehicle's details are:

97 stagea shell

RB26DETT

Arias pistons

Eagle rods

ACL race series bearings

Fully balanced everything (crank, rods, flywheel, clutch etc)

Crank work (crack tested linished etc)

Block work (acid dipped, decked, crack tested)

N1 pumps

Tomie oil restrictor

Tomei sump baffel

Trust MHG

Trust 264deg cam's

All new genuine gaskets through out

New timing gear throughout

Head fully recon'd (lifters set for cams, guides etc)

New engine mounts, Gbox mounts etc

Platinum plugs

2 x Garret GT2860-7's

Apexi PFC

Turbotech bleed valve

HKS pods

HKS tuned length front pipe

HKS catback

Stock dumps and GTR cat

New belts

Cleaned stock injectors

Walbro in tank 600hp pump (not fitted but supplied)

Driveline:

New excedy cerametalic single plate clutch (rated to 330rwkw)

All 260RS driveline: mech diff, autech cradle etc

All new oils etc

Brakes:

New Master cylinder

Factory Autech 260RS brembo's

New Project Mu B spec pads

New rotors all round

New brake fluid

Suspension:

Nismo struts

Front Cusco castor arms

Rear camber arms (not fitted but supplied)

Hicas breaker bar

Exterior:

All factory Autech 260RS bodykit

Factory Autech rims with new Kuhmo ecsta sport KU31's

Fully tinted

new windscreen

Factory HID's

Interior:

Full autech interior

Trust turbo timer

Clarion CD player (dosnt work that well)

Alarm and central locking

Air con just regassed with new reciever drier

factory privacy blind and net

Car made 304ahwhp @ a little under 10psi. Limited by the stock fuel pump (hence the new walbro). Car was tuned at X-speed. They said with the combo on the car with the new pump, EBC and bigger injector you should see 450-460awhp @ 20psi ish, safley reliably, easily and responsively.

OK the bad points about the car:

Needs a new engine fan ( i have another 2nd hand one to go on that isnt cracked)

Radiator needs a clean out (got hot on the dyno but dosnt get hot now driving normally)

Needs new sway bar link bushes front and rear

Needs new castor rods bushes or just fit adjustable castor rods

I will sell the car with ALL the spare parts i have left over (except the busted RB25). PLease check this thread to see what there is, nearly 3k's worth of parts.

I am asking $35000ono as is with all the spare parts.

Im located in Bunbury WA

0419943997

The engine work and all the new parts cost me well over $20k. And like i said its all done less the 5000km's so barely run in. I just dont have the funds to finish it (building a new house) and like i said its not really big enough for us (we have 2 kids and a dog).

I will get some pics up as soon as it stops raining.

Forgot to put in that all the engine work was done by Gavin Wood Autotech on the Goldcoast. I have a reciept for the work. And have receipts for most of the other parts etc.

Not interested in swaps unless you have a Jeep Unlimited Rubicon or a newish 4x4 dual cab.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
