hey fellas i have exactly the same problem with the exact same kit. i have been advised that you can get screw in nipples for the new piping. this is what i plan to do. also putting a t piece in the vacuum line between the stock bypass gasket and the inlet manifold. another quetion, did you guys have to trim your fan blades to make the crossover piping fit? this seems F*%king stupid because the fan is a crucial part of the engine and is perfectly balanced and cutting it would cause shuttering and the water pump to crapp itself?

anyway what you guys do? r33 II

If you gonna use the piping kit as it is then you have got no choice but to trim the fan. Agree its a very dumb idea coz Hybrid just make the kits for generic application not car model specific. Any way when I got my kit installed was advised not to trim too much of ther fan but rather had the pipe raised with a longer silicon hose on the left and a small bar to hol the top pipe mount on the engine. Still need to trim just a little bit off the fan. Well, I guess what you pay is what you get . . .

      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 🍻
