Hi guys,

its been a while since I post on this forum. (sold my R33 GTST yeasr back)

now I am looking to buy another nissan this time a little different. A Nissan Austech Stagea RS260,

now I got no idea about this car at all all I know is it had a RB26 in the front and GTR(R33) running gear. I am looking is 1997 - 1998 model I think its the series one (thats ll I can afford atm).

now here is the questions ?

1 , What should I be look out for ??

2, How do I really tell is an Autech one not a convertion ?

3, I also has a Haltech E11 V2 from my skyline R33, is the Loom a direct plug in as well ??

cheers guys

any help is highly appreciated !!

there's one at E & M Unique at the moment with about 50,000km's on it I think.

cheers guys

Maintaining your rb26 will do your head in! Ive owned a GTR before, and this was the reason i went for m35! But i guess m35s have their common faults aswell!

personally after owning 90s model cars i got sick and tired of the dated interiors! everytime i jumped in to my friends vyss. i was like farrrrk. need to get newer model car!

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
