hey guys, got this a little while ago,

1998 260RS stagea

so far I've upgrade the exhaust a bit (front pipe and cat before it hit dyno, just replaced rear muffler and trying to get a 3.5" resonator), taken boost restrictor out and installed a Bosch 044 and a haltech. Currently putting down about 210awkw's with a restrictive exhaust.

Next plans are twin plate clutch and a pair of Garrett turbos. (2860's -5)

the wheels on it in those pics are my mates (18x9.5+18) and I just run the autech stockies

Let me know what ya think guys!

Yeah the front needs a little more low (it's running fully adjustable Zeal coilvers)

My mate bought those wheels for his JZA70 supra not long ago so I don't think he'll part with them (even tho they look sexual on my car lol)

see how I go I guess haha.

Looks good and very similar to mine. Very similar number plate. I'm curious to know how much power it will have once the exhaust is done. Mines currently pushing 190kws at all 4 but is being limited by injecters. getting a fuel pump and fpr fitted soon!!!!!!!!1

You must be kidding! My RS4 with an RB25DET made over 200awkw with stock injectors. Anyway don't bother with the fpr - get some better injectors and an aftermarket ecu for a start.

Yeah i got 244.5 at the rears on stock turbos and just a walbro in my 260RS, pretty much every other bolt on know to man though. Power FC and Z32s are the go.

My tuner tells me stock FPR will be fine when i add 2860s and 700cc injectors,

Nice plates dude, These things look amazing dumped but the overhang at the front is a real killer i couldn't imagine going too much lower.

Yeah my stag has 227 I think at the rears with the exhaust dropped... Think it lost about 4kw with the cat attached. K&N panel filter, haltech, 044 and 1 bar are my only mods.

And thanks, saw the plates were aailable and purchased them before I bought the car haha. They were going on a vz if I hadn't bought a 260 when they arrived (had to have a car to put them on in order to order them). Luckily they weren't tainted by commodore faggotry lol.

just read that they arent your wheels... spewin...

although i havent seen it on an older model stag but i have them on my m35... ive got a set of v35 skyline wheels on mine currently, actually look pretty good, they have a convex styling to them so they kinda POP a bit!

but yea any wheels can look good, spacers provided!

so jelly of your 260rs, was going to import one actually but i caved for the newer stag, about the same price anyway... had a gtr before and maintenence on rb26 ruins my life lol

Stock FPR is fine for heaps of power on an RB... only those who are avoiding an injector upgrade tend to play with them.

Take it to another workshop for a second opinion and get them to check the fuel system over, a pump on the way out(for example) could be causing issues for you(or a pump at its limits...), injectors are fine for a fair bit more. Workshop or car seems NQR :thumbsup:

yeah it's a nice car and I'm in love with it. Always wanted a GTR but I've had a few 2 drs already so I thought I'd get something practical and fast :)

The same reason I got my 260RS. A family car... with some serious horsepower.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
