hey guys, got this a little while ago,

1998 260RS stagea

so far I've upgrade the exhaust a bit (front pipe and cat before it hit dyno, just replaced rear muffler and trying to get a 3.5" resonator), taken boost restrictor out and installed a Bosch 044 and a haltech. Currently putting down about 210awkw's with a restrictive exhaust.

Next plans are twin plate clutch and a pair of Garrett turbos. (2860's -5)

the wheels on it in those pics are my mates (18x9.5+18) and I just run the autech stockies

Let me know what ya think guys!

Yeah the front needs a little more low (it's running fully adjustable Zeal coilvers)

My mate bought those wheels for his JZA70 supra not long ago so I don't think he'll part with them (even tho they look sexual on my car lol)

see how I go I guess haha.

Looks good and very similar to mine. Very similar number plate. I'm curious to know how much power it will have once the exhaust is done. Mines currently pushing 190kws at all 4 but is being limited by injecters. getting a fuel pump and fpr fitted soon!!!!!!!!1

You must be kidding! My RS4 with an RB25DET made over 200awkw with stock injectors. Anyway don't bother with the fpr - get some better injectors and an aftermarket ecu for a start.

Yeah i got 244.5 at the rears on stock turbos and just a walbro in my 260RS, pretty much every other bolt on know to man though. Power FC and Z32s are the go.

My tuner tells me stock FPR will be fine when i add 2860s and 700cc injectors,

Nice plates dude, These things look amazing dumped but the overhang at the front is a real killer i couldn't imagine going too much lower.

Yeah my stag has 227 I think at the rears with the exhaust dropped... Think it lost about 4kw with the cat attached. K&N panel filter, haltech, 044 and 1 bar are my only mods.

And thanks, saw the plates were aailable and purchased them before I bought the car haha. They were going on a vz if I hadn't bought a 260 when they arrived (had to have a car to put them on in order to order them). Luckily they weren't tainted by commodore faggotry lol.

just read that they arent your wheels... spewin...

although i havent seen it on an older model stag but i have them on my m35... ive got a set of v35 skyline wheels on mine currently, actually look pretty good, they have a convex styling to them so they kinda POP a bit!

but yea any wheels can look good, spacers provided!

so jelly of your 260rs, was going to import one actually but i caved for the newer stag, about the same price anyway... had a gtr before and maintenence on rb26 ruins my life lol

Stock FPR is fine for heaps of power on an RB... only those who are avoiding an injector upgrade tend to play with them.

Take it to another workshop for a second opinion and get them to check the fuel system over, a pump on the way out(for example) could be causing issues for you(or a pump at its limits...), injectors are fine for a fair bit more. Workshop or car seems NQR :thumbsup:

yeah it's a nice car and I'm in love with it. Always wanted a GTR but I've had a few 2 drs already so I thought I'd get something practical and fast :)

The same reason I got my 260RS. A family car... with some serious horsepower.

    • 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
