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 ..

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
