My cousin and I hold differing views on this. He reckons its extremly hard because some guy that works at an importer place told him because they ahve rb26dett's that they are extremely difficult to compliance and that there are only 2 in australia.

But since rb26dett's were available in the r32 gtr that was locally sold, isn't it just a case of making it match the emissions that the r32 had met? Or am i missing something here

rb26 in stagea has different emission test to any other rb26 due to exhaust system differrences..pipe length,muffler part # etc..actually closer to r34 emmision std but untill some one with stagea compliance has autech version tested ..then yes it is difficult...but i`am sure emission evidence for 260 rs can not be to far away

I have imported a 260RS it is still awaiting compliance and yes it is emissions that is the hold up, it will be the first stagea autech to be reg in australia. i know there are two more in the country but they have to wait like l do for the testing to be completed

Sorry, but there is definately a 260RS in melbourne already. It came in under the old import scheme though, if that's what you mean about yours being the first under the new scheme.

There was a write-up on it in HPI a few years ago.

Actually the one in HPI was from C-red in Perth. I'm pretty sure the one in Melb came in under race rego, it competed in the grand prix rally in 2002. Good to see a few of them around, must get one myself :(

the C-Red Stagea is a 2.5 and is registered, the white 260RS in Melbourne which came in through Success motors (now Closed) is not registered. Can anyone prove there is a 260RS Autech Version Registered in Australia

no its in japan ..bought at auction on friday...intend to use as sample car for raws

the 98 autech from motorman is the sample car, and compliance should have been completed on friday 28th May, so your car will not need to be a sample .

which year did you get, any mods?

it will be a sample car for my own compliance company..every raw needs sample car of what they intend to comply..no actual testing of this car will be done as evidence for this model is nearly complete..as you mentioned

its a 98 model ..

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
