thats what i was originally going to do. I sent them an email clearly saying what i was after and it was like i got an automated response saying to send my turbo in. I clearly stated thats not what i wanted to do as the car can not be off the road that long at the moment. So i figured if they cant answer an email properly what is the service actually going to be like... So yeah thats why im looking at other options.

Looks like a garret 3071r has come up at a really good price with dump pipe and braided lines etc. I think i might grab that as thats what the tuner recommended new. Also comes with the adapter flange for low mount.

yeah they're a good turbo.. GTX? or GT? and what rear housing?

Also who's your tuner? curious.

One thing that caught my attention here is that you say it comes with an "adapter flange". By adapter, do you mean a spacer (typically 10mm) so compressor housing clears the manifold?

Reason I ask, is that I believe some GT3071s were sold with cropped turbines and a T25 flanged housing (your RB25 stock manifold has a T3 flange). If this turbo you're looking at has a T25 flange and using an adapter to T3, you might want to think twice about it.

It's probably just me being paranoid on your behalf, but thought I'd ask anyway.

Yeah mate wrong term thanks for the concern. Its definitely a spacer for clearance. Picked it up came with everything. dump, front pipe, braided lines and all pretty bloody cheap. I just hope its in as good as condition as it looks. Its what you get second hand but saved my self a heap.

    • 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
