So iv'e managed to sell my 33. Well it didn't really take long but long story short I needed a bigger car for work and family. I am most likely picking up a stag tomorrow and as any typical guy am already looking at what mods to use and who to talk to.

I'm sure there's a stagea thread on here so anyone got any directions?

Oh and yes i feel bad for selling the line but at least I haven't strayed to far from the pack. lol

Cheers

Kane

when inspecting look for the rust spots, door mirrors is common they all have it, some are fixed some are not. but if you look in the first link and find my topic on strut tower rust, you'll see the drama's im having atm. BUT there was no sign of the rust 1 year ago when i inspected it.

good luck.

I don't give a shit whether you buy mine or not, but have a look at it as a template for mods :devil:

They need the standard RB 100k service upon purchase, they NEED good pads, tyres, shocks and alignment bushes, the springs and swaybars are an optional mods, but the others are a maintenance item. Radiator reco is a peice of mind thing.

Full exhaust saves fuel and makes it go better, same with FMIC.

Will add more after dinner.

If you are interested in making an offer on mine, feel free, if you have stagea questions, I will answer them whether you are interested in mine or not, here or in the stagea section.

find that hard to believe, im lucky to see 400 out of a full tank, standard exhaust i was getting a minimum 400 once ran it till 450-60

interesting... my freeway fuel consumption improved massively when i did dump/front/cat, also helped around town.

have you done your cat? and done plugs lately?

    • 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 🍻
