I'm looking to spend up to 30k on my first skyline but don't know what to get....was thinking R33 GTST S2 but now I'm not so sure...

The plan is to buy my 'line stock and do it up completely myself and it will basically be a learning experience for me...question is should I get R32, R33 or R34? GTS, GTR or what? Which one would be the best to start off with?

I want a car that has the potential to go 10 secs, good handling, easy to drift....I will be getting another skyline next year or 2007 so this will be my practise car....

When you say 30K, does that include the cost of modifications or just the car?

Best buy with that sort of money (just for the car) would be a late model R32 GTR or early model GTR 33 or GT-T R34.

Plus the 100g worth of mods you'll need for a 10sec car.

30k just for the car, maybe a little more if it will be worth it....I'm sick of driving a shitbox and want to get my skyline before August...I know it will cost heaps to make it a 10 sec car but that is fine coz it will be worth it when I'm in the hottest ride around lol

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      Agreed, I've never seen a 260RS specific manual. As GTSBoy said it will mostly be stagea other than the engine loom https://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/stageaservicemanual.pdf

      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.

      Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉

      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
