Hate to really disappoint you guys with RB25 Stageas, but the 260RS gets almost 400 km from every tank. which calculates to average around 14-16 l/100km. i assume the tanks are the same size, so the RB25's must be gas guzzling things!!!

So i;ve been doing a bit more investigating into the effects of hte switch, It seems that no matter what setting i have the switch in, there is the same levels show on the torgue Guage. WHen i switched the attessa to minimal front torque, i almost spun the car around a corner ie no front grip, ut the guage still showed nearly 50 Kg/cm of torque. I asssume the guage is rigged up somewhere before the attessa system takes over? any idea?

Managed to pull the boot lining out today and found where the lead went.....it went to small silver box behind the Attessa System. The reason the switch was not working before was becuase it had come loose from the connection so i reconnected it, all working now. Went for a quick burn and just from the torque split guage, it seems that with it one position, there is minimal torque to the front wheels (but these is some, NOT RWD) middle setting is as per normal attessa control, and then top position is heaps more front torque and results in a lot of chatter when taking off quickly when the front wheels are struggling for grip. I guess that i would be much better off just leaving it in normal position, to make sure i dont end up with any problems associated with driving in RWD mode??

Nah no TV, dot think the Autech ever got a TV did it? will get some pics, but i'm pretty sure it would be something to do with the Atessa......i have tried switching the switch and seeing if it effects the torque gauge on the dash but it seems to be same in every mode......??

Thanks SKA, yes i mean passenger side, and yes i have read all the stuff relating to RWD mode, might do some more research into that, as i have just replaced the clutch and want it last me a while!

I have traced the wire from an aftermarket 3-stage switch which is mounted on my dash beside the rear window demister, which leads all the way back to the rear left boot compartment, beside where a 6-stacker could usually be mounted. Havent had the opportunity to pull off the boot lining to look at what it actually goes to, but just thought i would ask to see what is actually in there?? Anyone have any ideas? there looks to be two or three different components in there?? IDEAS Cheers, Tim

Now with new clutch - any takers - going to advertise on carsales etc this week

1997 AUTECH 260RS RB26DETT powered 4WD Wagon 86,000Kms - PEARL WHITE Normal AUTECH Gear like Brembos, Dual Airbags, and Bodykit $34,000 - Reg exp 03/08 URE-431 EXTRAS TEIN Coilovers - Fully Adjustable KAKIMOTO Turbo back exhaust - AVC-R tuned with 0.8 and 1.2 Bar settings HKS Turbo Timer Twin HKS Pod Filter G-Reddy Oil Catch Can and pressure Reg G-Reddy pillar mounted Boost guage (along with the normal Dash mounted guages!) I imported the car Early Jan 2007 - Have absolutely loved driving the car, but realised it just isn't me anymore (much to my Fiance's relief). The car is in awesome condition and totally exceeded my expectations when it arrived off the boat - would consider a swap with anything a bit more conservative along the lines of Audi A4/S4 or maybe BMW M3 etc The interior is in immaculate condition and the only damage on the car is the usual Front bar scratches underneath and a small chip which is visible on the front bar lip. The Car was graded 4BB at the Auction house in Japan. The car is in Melbourne and i can be contacted on 0410 85 88 94 OR by PM. Cheers, Tim http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...matchallpartial
