ok, atm I have my car.

the front bar is on, but ****ed after i let my friend drive it, and he didnt know how to enter driveways...

Im also looking for a trust airpod and attachment and a nice fmic set up.

but i need insurance, beacuse I dont want to lose my car, I'm 21 had 8 speeding tickets in the last 6 years, and had my license suspensed once(the new rule).

I'm just wondering wheres the best places to go and whats the best value for money. like I dont want chrome pipes for my fmic, i'd rather black, but a chrome fmic.

my drivers door window motor is now ****ed from going up and down too much, so i'll have to replace that also.

and b4 i got my car service my car did 80 in first and then 135 in second, now it only goes to 60-65 and then seems like its trying to get more air. and in second only gets to 100. this is good for me, but I would rather a car taht works properly then not.

basically im bored sitting at home, and would rahter spend money on my car :D

thats at stock psi also, I dont know what happened and chaos has seen my car go :D

so I'm trying to think what could have happened, can you reduce the turbo psi from stock to lower? or can new spark plugs do something?

my car has a rev limiter of 7000 but not speed limited(this is good so I cant over rev.)

so, maybe i need to get it tuned or something. dad doesnt want to help, he believes my car goes fast enough as it is, and that he doesnt want me to loose my license again...

greg have u tried taking the airbox off?? maybe thats why it seems its trying to suck more air in cause i noticed last time u had one on.

insurance....well with ur history you will struggle to get it.

I'd say go with a 400R front bar or garage ***ui or something like that (NA_R33 has one) and this have a large section in the front for a front mount.

nah new clutch, once i bought it from autoshop the clutch was over trightened and they had burnt the **** outter it, i got a new one the next day, some dakin perforanmce clutch for 900 fitted, was quoted other places for $1200. the clutch is fine, the only problem i have is the air filter is stock and the sponge is shit its almost about to fall apart(some rips in it) so I'm going to either get a panel air filter, or waste some money on a pod and make some air box thingy :D

at the service, i got new plugs, the mud outta the radirator(this didnt make the car heat up at all for some reason :D and new oils and shit like that. I run my car only on ulimate, I would get racq to tow me to a bp if i ran out of fuel in front of a shell :D

i check the water and oil regualy and would rather be saef then sorry. I also have to find somewhere that will lathe back my disc, or maybe buy some slotted ones :D

and imm thinking of getting my license back for night work, because i make 300 more a week doing nights. I THINK i could drive to and from work properly and that I will slow down on the open roads. speed kills those that dont look in their mirrors...

Bwahahahaha! Funny. I'm a BP only man too.

I got my front discs machined at Global down here on the coast. Removed them myself, drove there in my shitter, had lunch, went back, all done, $30. Still want DBA rotors tho...

Slowing down in a Skyline is a figment of your imagination... :D

And aint that the truth...

      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 🍻
