My cousin and I hold differing views on this. He reckons its extremly hard because some guy that works at an importer place told him because they ahve rb26dett's that they are extremely difficult to compliance and that there are only 2 in australia.

But since rb26dett's were available in the r32 gtr that was locally sold, isn't it just a case of making it match the emissions that the r32 had met? Or am i missing something here

rb26 in stagea has different emission test to any other rb26 due to exhaust system differrences..pipe length,muffler part # etc..actually closer to r34 emmision std but untill some one with stagea compliance has autech version tested ..then yes it is difficult...but i`am sure emission evidence for 260 rs can not be to far away

I have imported a 260RS it is still awaiting compliance and yes it is emissions that is the hold up, it will be the first stagea autech to be reg in australia. i know there are two more in the country but they have to wait like l do for the testing to be completed

Sorry, but there is definately a 260RS in melbourne already. It came in under the old import scheme though, if that's what you mean about yours being the first under the new scheme.

There was a write-up on it in HPI a few years ago.

Actually the one in HPI was from C-red in Perth. I'm pretty sure the one in Melb came in under race rego, it competed in the grand prix rally in 2002. Good to see a few of them around, must get one myself :(

the C-Red Stagea is a 2.5 and is registered, the white 260RS in Melbourne which came in through Success motors (now Closed) is not registered. Can anyone prove there is a 260RS Autech Version Registered in Australia

no its in japan ..bought at auction on friday...intend to use as sample car for raws

the 98 autech from motorman is the sample car, and compliance should have been completed on friday 28th May, so your car will not need to be a sample .

which year did you get, any mods?

it will be a sample car for my own compliance company..every raw needs sample car of what they intend to comply..no actual testing of this car will be done as evidence for this model is nearly complete..as you mentioned

its a 98 model ..

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

      Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
