yeah great pic looks bloody cold there,

how come yours revs to 8000rpm?

Mine also revs to 8000; I think Mat and I have the exact same head setup. Performance valve springs and retainers plus poncams, my tuner thought it was safe to rev that high.

Rev limit gets set in the Haltech (Or link in Martins case) and apparently with the springs and retainers etc 8000rpm is where the party is!

Edit - And nope that was a pretty warm day!

You have a better setup that me as your head has been off ;)

Gave the headlights a quick wipe with PLAST-X today, cant wait to get home and finish it as they look so different even with a quick wipe! Very impressed!

A quick snap from this morning while i was checking a few things, i cant wait to get the bay all cleaned up and take some decent shots.... I will head down to the bolt shop and find new stainless bolts for the timing case cover etc just to make it look a bit cleaner, ill also give the runners etc a good clean up so it all looks nice and neat.

I would leave the rad as is, alloy enhances the black theme IMO.

I was thinking the same thing. It matches the comp cover, hose clamps and other little silver bits in the engine bay.

Starting to think the same, by the time i go out and get shiny bolts and clean everything up properly it should look OK!

Its still got coolant and shit everywhere from that radiator drama :glare:

    • 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 🍻
