260rs On Its Way!

[writeoff]

Nice car. Looks tough.

I must add 'Drive a 260rs' on my things to do list.

[shy_s6]

tough car but they are very over priced at synergy!!

[Tangles]

IMO say 34k for a series 2 autech stagea 260rs isnt a bad price

38k would be too much. you can get series 1's for 25-30k dependant on condition, but series 2 are MUCH rarer than series 1 Autech stagea's

But then again how many R34 GTR's do you see getting around for under 40k? not many, not many.

If I was after an Autech Id go with a S1 for 6-8k less, but each to their own. I think the black S2 looks fantastic !! Rear wing isnt to my liking (Ive got the smaller Dayz wing, tidier IMO) but again each to their own.

Would love to have a drive, and get the owner to test mine to see how the mildly worked 25 compares to the stock 26

Import it and save 10k......

i didnt want to say it i remember them having a series 8 Rb model for 39,990 i was a bit stunned when you can get a RS model for easily under 35K thats why they have been around a long time i guess their cars are mint but no one actually knows what they are costing in japan

nice buy man enjoy the 26

as for a R34 front cut even if it say cost 12g you would get 6-8 of that back selling the RB26 and loom from it and i would certainly take the front hubs for my AWD 5 stud conversion

Im the other balck 260rs owner that shaun was referring too! And i have 32 GTR aswell, are you copying me? lol

The last time i stopped by synergy and had a look that series 2 didnt have 34 gtr wheels on it, had similar looking rims to gtr wheels tho?

[32godzilla]

Well I've now done about 300km's which is more than enough to get a decent feel for it and honestly - I love it! A lot nicer to drive than the R32. I do understand I could've got one cheaper but I didn't pay much over $36K in the end and I feel the car is well worth it, the R34 GTR rims and steering wheel are probably worth the difference from $34K anyway.

Anyways - hope to see you all on a cruise sometime soon.

Edit: GRIM R32 - you have an R32 GTR as well!!! That my friend is rather freaky!! What colour? If it's gunmetal then it's a triple snap. Hopefully see you out somewhere so I can check out your beast(s).

Bloody hell!!! Your surname isn't Munro is it??

[GRIM_R32]

Ha ha, no its Ben, but i do know John though! lol.

Im getting my 260 back next week after adding some finishing touches to the recent rebuild, should be really really fun to drive now!

[Madaz]

hmmm finishing mods should be good to catch up again Ben

[GRIM_R32]

Hey Steve! Yeah we will have to catch up when i get it back, will take you for a spin and see what you think! Definitely got enough grunt to hold you well back into the seats, or nearly brake your neck if your sitting in the back due to the lack of higher head rests...lol.

[Madaz]

lol good show

im in the middle of modding mine now just need to get some broken studs fixed now

should be good for 250awkw eventually
