Im having an arguement with a parts guy at my local nissan dealer about how many autech's were built. Does any body know the exact numbers on series 1 and 2's?

Thanks

I have no idea :3some: but i would imagine heaps of them. It would be like, how many customers ordered that version in any particular month of the production run spanning several years. There would have been more than enough built for the model to be recognised worldwide I should think. I would like to know how many really top nick examples are left? Not counting mine of course. :D

Cheers GW

Trolled through a Japanese blog site of a 260RS owner and he stated that 1700 260RS's were produced. He seems to be a pretty serious 260RS owner, so hopefully his guess is educated. Couldnt find any official numbers and no breakdown of S1 and S2s.

I had a pic as a screen saver of a beautiful yellow Nismo Stag (think it was S1) but my dam computor destroyed it. the grill was the same style as the GTIR Pulsar job. The bonnet had two lovely vents in it, i remember that much. When i went shopping with SVI, Mick Martin I was after a Nismo or Autech. Mick never ever came back with any Nismo jobs up for auction. in fact he did not even acknowledge they existed. But.......I had a screen saver once. :D

Cheers GW :P

    • At this point I'm just 'hoping' it's the turbo seals. I did speak to someone who said it's normal for these turbos to have a bit of axial play? Not gonna lie I've never checked a turbo for axial play before but you could hear it tapping a bit as I moved it back and forth. Surely that's too much? My theory is (could be completely wrong), bad axial play, worn bearings, bad seals, oil into dump/compressor side, burns in exhaust = blue smoke. On a timing belt related note, my crank pulley was missing that front plate that sits in front of the timing belt. It's that metal round plate. It did have the rear one, and the woodruff keys are in the crank which was nice. Can anyone confirm if the NEO det engine has a front plate, im sure it would to protect the front of the timing belt or something. Water pumps...the pump I got was an NPW (yes grill me if I should've got a genuine one lol). It has a smooth mating surface, kit came with a pretty pathetic looking paper gasket. Do I need to use any RTV or just trust the gasket will work because its a smooth mating surface? Cheers legends have a good Easter break!
    • Cheers man, I thought the same.   Bit of an update on it all. It was definitely blue smoke, not grey after all. It didn't really smell oily but it was blue after all. Also puffing just the smallest amount on idle with no throttle.   I ended up pulling the intake and exhaust off and there was around 3mm of axial play on the turbo shaft. So I figured we'll that's buggered and sent it off to get hi-flowed at hypergear. Haven't got it back yet.   I haven't compression tested it yet. Had a look in the cylinder and cylinder 1 spark plug, looked a bit sooty but not oily. Then I've just started doing my timing belt because it's age is unknown.
    • In that case it is probably stock. It lives in the navigator side footwell behind the plastic trim just in front of the a pillar.
    • Good question, I don't really know tbh...I'm pretty stock thought, where could I check this?
    • This. I'm confused by the whole discussion. The only reason you would have a car with e85 only if it was track use and you only ever used e85. All other use cases you add a flex fuel sensor, do the flex tune (you only need to do a couple of % and then interpolate the rest) and then you put whatever the hell you feel like including a mix in the tank and it just works. Want a long drive? fill with 98 Want max zoom? fill with e85 Got a half tank of 98 then find e85 somewhere? Throw it in.
