Well all done & I'm more than happy from 164KW to 297KW atw

On Dyno

And as a bonus it has a great lumpy idle with the new cams

During the process Jezz found not one but three exhaust restrictors one before the CAT & both mufflers

Does anyone know if Yu can get badges made? I would like a badge to go on the front grill on the space left for the Autech Version badge as it's the only spot that looks like something is missing. Any thought or suggestions?

Well been driving the car for 2 weeks now & it is a different beast, it is pure driving pleasure the power the sound it's fantastic.

I can't recommend DVS TUNING in Somersby enough, Jezz knows the RB's inside out and is a whiz on Haltech ecu's

He stuck to the quote & it was done on time. I'll be back when it's time to build a second monter motor to drop in the Stagea.

I've done a few more small mod & tidy up jobs since the tune...

Replaced the soft rubber seal around the air intake that seals against the bonnet.

Removed tidied up & spay painted the acoustic dampener under the bonnet with matt black calliper paint.

Added a huge deep cycle second battery in the back with a 800watt inverter with a RedArc smart controller system for charging camera, gimble, & drone batteries between jobs.

And I'm in the process of ordering Project Mu NS4000 brake pares front & rear as the one that the car came with must be track pads. I can't even get the abs to trigger no matter what when the are at normal temp & they have left hot spot deposits on the Nismo rotors I'll have to get skimmed off.

Jezz worked out that with every exhaust restrictor he removed I gained about 25KW so all up about 75KW AWESOME!

Great result mate, very clean looking 260. Any plans to take it to the track/strip?

Not at the moment it is just too pristine of a specimen to bash around its like driving a brand new car.

Project Mu pads fitted & make a huge difference & no dust much better braking but still needs attention maybe the rotors skimmed & the system bleed with fresh dot5 fluid. I also found a genuine instrument cluster from Montreal Canada that has turned up so my tachometer reads correctly. I'll be fitting that this week with a fresh set of super white led globes. Awesome find, now I won't have the blacked out auto trans lights.



I found a genuine front grille Autech Version badge. Looks great but expensive but it was a blank area that looked like it needed a badge. I also added some cheap nismo badges front and rear as sacrificial offerings to keep the idiots away from the genuine ones.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
