well yeah, greatly.

what boost are you planning to run?

what cams are you going for?

Devs will be able to give you a much better answer I can cos I don't know.

depends what runs out first, boost/fuel/....stock bottom end

Not sure what cams. But the adjustable cam gears will give a nice lumpy idle if wanted.

I will post a the specs of the parts once I have talked to Jezz later today.

Thank you all for the comments & advice as this is my first RB & I want it done right the first time.

Mate. I'm in Singleton an hour in land from Newcastle. I've just spent $30,000 on my engine giving my 260RS a massive upgrade with Powertune in Sydney.

I have GTR N1 - 7 turbos for sale with dump pipes. As well as lumpy cam shafts. Plus a heap of other bits and pieces off the 260RS.

My car was reliably making 415bhp with stock internals for many years before a big end bearing on number 2 cylinder packed it in.

Hit me up if you're interested to pop up to Singleton for a look.

As for Newcastle tuners. Try Black track at the end of the freeway. I rate their work highly. But they are near impossible to get to answer the phone, so just pop in one day and have a yarn to em.

Jezz has ordered Tomei type b poncams and os giken adjustable camgears

I really can't rely on the factory boost gauge so I thought I could get the video output from the Halech into the aux input on my clarion head unit. Or get a multi function display that runs independently. Any thought or recommendations?

Thank you in advance.

Out of curiosity, How did you manage to spend $2500 replacing the headunit?

Clarion motorised 7" screen DVD iPod CD BUILT IN NAVIGATION reverse camera sub & amp

The navigation built into the head unit really bumped the price about $1500 just for the Clarion plus the rest & fitting

I really wanted it to look original when the screen is not in use.

Sorry been working last few days...

I have GT2560R's 7 ball already not sure of the difference, what other bits do you have?

It's in from this Saturday so I should pick it up next week. I might bring it for a run up the valley for a shake down. & catch up.

Finally it has started, next week the power will be unleashed, I hope!

Haltech will arrive Monday morning Just the fuel pump & injectors to go in so hopefully mid week pick up & test fly....
Thank you to everyone that did reply & help me find the correct way to go, I'm confident the car will be great UNTILL I need more.
Because as I have seen everyone wants more.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      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

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      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 🍻
