Sure these are all bolt on and changeable for people attempting to disguise a RS4 as a 260 but they are easy to check:

  • NO front cup holders
  • NO sunroofs
  • Under body front brace
  • Fork bottom rear shocks
  • Clutch master is recessed into firewall
  • Higher redlining tacho

Thats all I can think of atm, but as stated above the only way to do it is with FAST.

Correct.

All 260RS Stags are plated as having RB25DETs. If you're ever in doubt you might be looking at/own a fake/converted 260, it should be manual, Brembos, and the recess in the firewall for the boosted clutch master are the first signs its a 260. There are other things to look for, but thats an easy start.

:thumbsup:

ok cheers, didnt check the firewall recess but all else checks out.

still looking at this stage, the complexity of the gtr setup is a bit offputting as thinking towards future maintenance etc, thinking an s2 rs would be good also neo+2wd manual, alot less headaches???

Hey mate I have the fast program and checked mine. Comes up witg a message saying "these are autech special vehicles" or something like that. If you want a VIN checked PM me and I'll check it for ya.

And yes I can confirm that they never came with RB26DETT on the plates. I'd be worried if it did. Autech recieved the bodys after plates were fitted, then installed the 26's.

And the no cup holders thing is present in all manual models from what I can remember ad they hit the gearstick.

Recess for clutch does that mean you have power booster on clutch pedal? I have an R33GTR clutch pedal on my RS4T but no room for the power booster :(

Yes get an RS 260 if they are not too dear - worth it for the better brakes, stronger rear end and engine is easy to get a reasonable power increase. Get a Nistune chip, better dumps (don't know what exhaust they have but look at that) steel wheels for turboand a good ebc and wind the boost up. Stock they are a bit of a slug.

clutch booster is gay. didn't bother when I did mine. is a pedal really that hard to push?

Yes - have a very heavy duty clutch. Not a problem on the road or track but can be a pain in the Auckland traffic as car is my daily driver. However am managaing without power assistance!!

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
