hi, new from Canada, bought a run down stagea that I'm slowly trying to get working. Right off the hop I was worried I got screwed because the vin plate says rb25det. But it has the rb26dett with autech wheels, interior (no cup holders) seems to be the right dash, engine is right... Body kit (front bumper is broken). Brembo brakes , sticker on the back as well as a rubbery autech version emblem.

Eventually would like to do the r34 conversion.

Anyways if anyone can point me to a vin checker that would be marv!

Otherwise I look forward to learning more and finding part numbers that work!

Thx

Michio

Thanks, For that link,

I'm also noticing there is a vast lack of stagea 260rs information...

I've ordered a bunch of parts from a Jdm import company and they seem to tell me all the parts from an r33 should fit the car.. Brakes, suspension, axles etc.. Have I been had? Simply trying to get this old girl working again and gitter on the road..

The 260RS is a pretty rare car so I wouldn't think there would be much info on it but at the end of the day it's still just a Stagea with an RB26.

R33 parts are correct, pretty much all the running gear and suspension is the same.

      Using Trickle Chargers

      I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.

      Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.

      Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right

      Research research research, and tackle the important things first, like the rust, because as a wise old hippie and some crazy horses once said "rust never sleeps" Nothing good comes easy and fast, and nothing that comes easy and fast is typically good
