Sure these are all bolt on and changeable for people attempting to disguise a RS4 as a 260 but they are easy to check:

  • NO front cup holders
  • NO sunroofs
  • Under body front brace
  • Fork bottom rear shocks
  • Clutch master is recessed into firewall
  • Higher redlining tacho

Thats all I can think of atm, but as stated above the only way to do it is with FAST.

Correct.

All 260RS Stags are plated as having RB25DETs. If you're ever in doubt you might be looking at/own a fake/converted 260, it should be manual, Brembos, and the recess in the firewall for the boosted clutch master are the first signs its a 260. There are other things to look for, but thats an easy start.

:thumbsup:

ok cheers, didnt check the firewall recess but all else checks out.

still looking at this stage, the complexity of the gtr setup is a bit offputting as thinking towards future maintenance etc, thinking an s2 rs would be good also neo+2wd manual, alot less headaches???

Hey mate I have the fast program and checked mine. Comes up witg a message saying "these are autech special vehicles" or something like that. If you want a VIN checked PM me and I'll check it for ya.

And yes I can confirm that they never came with RB26DETT on the plates. I'd be worried if it did. Autech recieved the bodys after plates were fitted, then installed the 26's.

And the no cup holders thing is present in all manual models from what I can remember ad they hit the gearstick.

Recess for clutch does that mean you have power booster on clutch pedal? I have an R33GTR clutch pedal on my RS4T but no room for the power booster :(

Yes get an RS 260 if they are not too dear - worth it for the better brakes, stronger rear end and engine is easy to get a reasonable power increase. Get a Nistune chip, better dumps (don't know what exhaust they have but look at that) steel wheels for turboand a good ebc and wind the boost up. Stock they are a bit of a slug.

clutch booster is gay. didn't bother when I did mine. is a pedal really that hard to push?

Yes - have a very heavy duty clutch. Not a problem on the road or track but can be a pain in the Auckland traffic as car is my daily driver. However am managaing without power assistance!!

      Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.

      Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.

      Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
