Hey guys did a search and cant seem to find much on this for my car.

Basically my car is a 88 Silhouette with RB25/30 T78 turbo and a few other things running 9psi.

Im looking at some time early next year, january/febuary to upgrade my brakes to handle to power it should be putting down a little better. At the moment its completely stock. I would like to upgrade the rotors aswell as calipers. Im just looking for some info at this point in time in what would be a good upgrade, i'm hoping the car will be putting down 450-500rwhp before too long and i know the standard brakes will not be able to pull me up in time.

Would like to spend a few grand, Dont want to go to crazy though.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Ben

best bet is talk to slip... he ran 32 gtst running gear.

alot of custom work and suspension issues.

a guy down at BDA (name starts with T) helped him out.

i have also done turbo caliper/rotor upgrades with custom dba slotted rotors for 4 stud applications.

      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
