S**t Marko... don't tell me you are one of those blokes that says, "should have never sold it".

i am 1 of those blokes, i was the 3rd owner. my mate had it for 6yrs.

had 80,000 genuine kms (aussie log books & service history)!

but then i twinkled with the engine lol, forged bottom end, hks gtrs turbos, cams, clutch etc etc etc & it made 365awkw.

its like having a genuine ford falcon gt then pulling out the engine & making it into a monster - nothing beats factory condition for enthusiasts & resale

what i can say though is that the silver gtr paid for my house deposit, sold it for 40k about 4-5yrs ago (im still in touch with the new owner, just in case :P)

i finally picked my replacement gtr :)

this is my black gtr with the rb26/30:

here is my new toy:

i kinda miss the rb26, it has a much more pitch sound BUT doesn't have the same brute power of the rb26/30

this red gtr has a forged engine with -5s & drives very well, 333awkw on crd's dyno @ a lazy 19psi :)

marko, what do you think those -5,s would be like on your 26/30 .......

hmmm - would be very aggressive & punchy in bottom end area but im not sure about what top end they would support?

i know of a few guys on gtr uk who have cracked over 400kw with -5s

me personally, i'd rather -10s on a 26/30 as i do like top end rush

i'd say for the circuit though the -5s would be a deadly package (im sure stevo 'n1gtr' was talking about -5s for a long time but not sure whether he followed through)

uuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm tempted. i know what you mean top end etc. here,s mine on track, would you say this is similar in pick up to yours now?.

i find this set up a little laggy on tight tracks

the silver r34gtt in front runs a to4z around 670@the flyand an rb30 with a 25 head

check out the videos on youtube of the high octane R34. it has -5 turbos and a 26/30. it also has different diff gears and other bits and pieces to help though so its not entirely an apples to apples comparison.

hi mate, yes seen mark berry,s car superb, but not a real comparison, i know simonster on here was going twins but thats not happened yet,i am dying to hear from anyone running either 2860-5,s or disco potatoes on a 26/30 set up. i know i will be dropping power for responce but on track i believe the car will be faster if that makes sence..lol

uuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm tempted. i know what you mean top end etc. here,s mine on track, would you say this is similar in pick up to yours now?.

your car sounds awesome - reminds me of my 26/30 :)

in terms of pickup, hard to gauge really...are u asking if your setup is similar to my rb26/30 with -10s OR rb26 with -5s?

i actually think that maybe my rb26/30 with -10s has less lag than my rb26 with -5s?

So what are the future plans for this one marko ?...i like the LMGT2's on there,you dont see them too much anymore.

not sure yet but i'd say i'll drop the 26/30 in the red gtr - ive spent way too much time & effort on this with the build, hardware, busting crd's balls & rob @ rips lol

btw - the wheels are lm gt1's :)

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • 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  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • 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 🍻
