My car revs out fine but it won't make any boost. Havn't looked at it yet but do any of you have any ideas. It was after a thrashing at the drift night last night at calder. The back afm reads less voltage than the front one so I think it might be a blown turbo since the exhaust manifold and dump pipe were glowing red before hand.

Hey Rowdy,

Which r32 was yours??

His is the Gunmental one, GTR wing and front bar (with paint missing), mis-matched rims (white LMGT4's on rear), and going by the pictures he finally got round to hacking up his spare bonnet with vents crazy dorifto style. :wassup:

Gaz mate, sorry i didn't get back to your SMS I was in the middle of summin and forgot about it until i saw this post, bad luck with the car though.

Are you gonna skip the Easter trip up to Gippsland to get this sorted? Hopefully it wont be too hard but those turbos did have a unknown history (just like everything else i guess) so i bet you've blown one. About time if you ask me buddy! :cheers:

Maybe this could be an excuse to buy a big-single or some other nice setup, get it sorted, then swap it over to your GTR when it gets here... :D

Anywayto anwer you question (and minor hi-jack your thread) my boost controller is going well, you'd be proud of me since i haven't tidied up all the wires running about, and my ECU was on the passenger side floor for weeks! :) Still got the kick panel of tho...

Good to hear oosh. Go the 32's. Now you've got the bug your car will never be in on piece ever again.

I got the diagnostic code 34 this morning which I think is a knock sensor but on thight acceleration front afm reads 3volts and the rear reads .9volts. I hope it might be a dead afm. I read they can die in zoom mag. I'll swap them at lunch time.

      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 🍻
