The thermostat seems to be playing up. Some mornings it takes AGES for the temp guage to move to the normal position. Then, after in the normal position for a while, the temp shoots right up top, drops back down, and so on. But most of the time the car runs perfectly.

Its not the guage because last week it almost overheated (ie small amount of steam came out from under the bonnet. stopped once I lifted the hood tho.)

Theres also plenty of water/coolant in it so that rules out any leaks.

First of all, does it sound like the thermostat? Secondly, anyone know where to get one from (please say its the same as the RB30!)?

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      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.

      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

      Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
