What was your 60ft / 330ft and 660ft times / also the mph of the 660ft and terminal mph and time. This can tell you where things are coming un stuck.

Wow! It seems there is quite some passion about the "Lit-up" Soarer! Well I have to admit to you that - that particular Soarer belongs to me. I respect that everyones tastes are different so some (eg: Skyzerr33, jmp, gradenko and puckish) may think it's rice, butt ugly and/or the person driving it is a tool - and that's all cool - you're entitled to your opinion! I'm not offended...! The car managed to pick up the "Mr TRD" Trophey at the 2002 PAS Western Salon and a 14.2 on the drag night so it can't be all that bad - can it !?

The car is a bit of a project for a number of Perth based initiatives. For one I am also the President of the Soarer Club for Western Australia so that was in part why there was a stack of Soarers down there on Wednesday. And hey, don't knock the Soarers! both the V8's and Twin Turbo's did pretty well on the night! I certainly can appreciate the skylines and if I had a second choice a Skyline would be it.

Secondly the car is a promotional vehicle for my business www.importscene.com.au. Specialising in auto accessories for the import market. And yes I've seen previous threads regarding the "rice" component. But again I'm fine with that. You either love it or you hate that stuff, personally I love it and a lot of my customers happen to be standard Aussi blokes many of whom own skylines!!

So at the end of the day this car is a bit of a promo vehicle for me and it needs to be seen. I also happen to love the neon look (each to their own) and if that makes me a tool in the eyes of some of you well so be it ! I'll still be down at the drags (trying) to kick some whoop ass....! Next time you see me at the plex come over and have a yack I'll be only to happy to listen to you dis me off in person! I think you'll find I don't take too many things that seriously :(

By the way "EXIT" drop by the shop sometime in wangara and I'll give you a generous discount for having such good taste!...

Cheers guys - enjoy the scene... :D

The only soarer I didn't like was the white one with the *huge* wing, long sticker and plate style rims.

It's just not my taste.

However, that blue/green one with neons didn't look bad but I just don't believe that neons belong on the track.

Also - Good luck with the shop lextc, nice to see a import style shop in Perth.

If neons and rice is the best way for you to express the love for your car, then I'm glad you stuck with your first choice.

personally I love it [rice] and a lot of my customers happen to be standard Aussi blokes many of whom own skylines!!  

And thats the shame of it all.

      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 🍻
