I'll take my line there... if someone will take the drive with me. (in a few weeks when it is running of course)

and if they dunno what bits are on it right off the bat.

I'll walk out of there laughing.

I think everyones being a bit harsh, they're probably new and dont have much money etc for advertising/ good workshop.

Ive seen pics of heaps of workshops in japan and they all look like little sheds and they still pump out good quality cars. Eg reckless in one of the latest eds of HPI.

But then again they could post on here for free and they havent, and you think if they specialised in skylines they would know about australia's leading skyline website.

Yes definately a bit harsh - I would hate to be starting a new business specialising in Skylines if thats the response you get...

***think positive thoughts***

If they are dodgy then they probably wont last [not with educated people at least] but I think they deserve a chance nonetheless.

I think its great somebody is trying to look after our kind - I don't think there is enough around personally, not in my area and not like the industry in the rest of OZ...

EDIT*

I am sick of people either thinking I have an R33 [gtst] or that the parts are the same or calling my car an R34GTS-T - i mean really, is it that hard to know???

[This has happened with just about any workshop you care to name].

I will go to down this place and get me a

NISMO sticker :(

j/k

there is a difference between bagging a shop and saying ur going to go down and check out their knowledge on what they profess as being specialists in.

WTF?

How was i bagging. I agree with narkie on this.

I going to see if they know i have a GT30 is far from bagging.

if they do know, then good luck to them. Cant see how it was bagging at all

      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 🍻
