Hi all,

Thought it's about time to make a post since I've been lurking these forums for about 8 months now.

Managed to get a hold of a 260RS

Here it is immediately after purchase:

And here it is after vicroads abused* my wallet today:

Current notable modifications are:

Coilovers (still need to crank them down)

S2 centre console

And the next thing on the stag-menu is a turbo-back exhaust!

Since im new, treat me gentle ;)

Lol, welcome...sort of belatedly. Love the P-plates, one of the few cars fitted with an RB26 that won't draw cops...

Yeah I went through a booze bus 3 days ago and they didnt even blink :)

However full license as of next month anyway

Ive been driving it for about a month now and the only issue I have is a clunk in the rear when changing gears rapidly. It came with a catback exhaust from Japan and Ive been told that it is most likely hitting the rear diff as there isnt much clearance above it at all.

be careful with that, i got pulled up last week and the police officer told me they are pulling over stags alot more now becuase they have cuaght out a heap of "p platers" driving them illegally thinking police dont know they are turbod, i would be putting it in your garage for a month and not run the risk of losing your license or your car.... booze buses wont check, they are there for a reason, drink drivers, not defects.

Full license is as of 03/09, and I have my own business registered under an ABN, so thats how ive been driving it so far without risk.

Not sure if this is the biggest coincidence or what but same with me!

Full licence next Monday. woohooo!

btw, ride looks neat as.

    • Agreed, I've never seen a 260RS specific manual. As GTSBoy said it will mostly be stagea other than the engine loom https://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/stageaservicemanual.pdf
    • You'lll likely have to make do with R33 GTR for engine/tranny stuff, and Stagea for the body. I don't know that there's even been an actual diagram seen in the wild.
    • 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
