Just a quickie update

Finally the sound deadner is all out and is looking a lot neater!

The bulk was easy to get out with the dry ice but the little bits were a pain in the ass

Cheers guys

Picked it up for not alot when you take into account what i sold off of it as it was very neat!

if / when i come to selling it ill most probably strip. Havent spent a whole heap, as most things ive done myself and also got second hand on here.

More of a budget build then anything else

Will upload a bunch more pics in the coming weeks and specs as it will be up and about for mallanats in adelaide, in a months time! heres to giving some V8s a suprise!

Just looked back over the thread, I had in my head this engine had upgraded internals but looking back over I can't see any evidence of that - is this a fully stock block?

STOCK STOCK block. Stock head just new head gasket and studs.

Have another engine im slowly buying parts for to forge eventually. Just seeing how long it will last before it goes *pop*

Thanks guys will post results as soon as i get them

If you have a decent tuner you will find it will be a long time before it goes pop! I still have the stock headgasket too remember lol

hahah i have taken inspiration from your set up and efforts! defiantly subscribed to your build.

hoping it lasts 12 or so months and give me time to get parts for a build together... plus i keep chopping and changing what i want to do / go about it

Lol now i might have to do the same with your car, time to get dry ice and some weight reduction happening lol

hahah

The dry ice works really well. i got around 10 kilo of it but could have used more. defiantly the more you can afford the easier the job becomes!

Trying to find a carbon boot and looking at lexan rear 1/4 windows and rear window.

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
