Hi all. Just want to get some help from you guys. Thinking of selling my R33 gts-t and getting a Stagea.I am getting different answers about the 260RS and the AUTECH. Are they the same or not. I rang Shannons and got two different quotes for them . The Autech was about $300.00 dearer.

I then spoke to a guy who is selling one and he said they were the same. Could anybody give me the proper answer please.

Nismo 260RS http://www.fantasycars.com/sedans/html/stageanis.html

Autech 260RS http://www.fantasycars.com/sedans/html/stagea.html

i have no idea if there is a "standard" 260rs

I am yet to see a Nismo version

Yes Autech put all the good running gear in, so it is the same as a R33 GTR

Brembo brakes, upgraded interior, their own body kit, shocks and springs, drive shafts LSD etc

Thanks Darrin. There is an Autech up there in Q'land I may have to come up and have a look at.

Yeah I don't think we will see any Nismo ones here yet or ever

The Nismo model is a seriously limited edition RS 260 autech with a heavily tuned engine and further uprated brakes and suspension 0-60 mph in a claimed 5.1 seconds. The engine is similar to the z tune skyline

It is so rare that the phrase should be rarer than a nismo stagea (instead of rocking horse s**t)

And yes as previously stated an rs 260 is an Autech or the other way round

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
