No, not unless your bonnet doesnt have a 2nd click when you shut it.

Eg, if you pull the bonnet lever from in the cabin and it pops up then WITHOUT lifting the latch behind the grill the bonnet will open all the way, then you'll need the rope. Otherwise the first restraint is the latch from inside the cabin, second restraint is the latch behind the grill

Make sense?

How hard is always a tough one, it really is up to you.

Basically each course last about 50-70 seconds, then you rest, mostly first maybe second gear. A few starts and stops.

My opinion is it really isn't that hard on your car, but if you choose to do 7500 rpm launches, drift the course and slide into the box on the hand break then things will wear out quicker. It is also worth servicing your car before any motorsport event. :)

Having said that, this is awesome value and a great way to get a taste for motor sport without huge expense and in a friendly fun environment. An opportunity not to be missed.

Hope this helps.

Dan.

i wouldnt mind coming out. Only just brought my gtr, not to keen on putting the gearbox though the floor. How hard is it on ya car..... prob a stupid question aye

Generally its not as hard as a "spirited" drive through old pac :)

Go as hard or soft as you like. If you're going too hard ill tell you, if you want advice etc on the day, there will be heaps of people around who can help.

Its a day of fun, nto trying to get the fastest time of the day, so come along and go at your own pace, its great using a GTR off the street :)

      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 🍻
