    😍 my old car, nice to see it still alive and not broken for parts

    • @SimpsonsClassics

      Yes it’s since been sold on and believed to still be on the road with the new owner. It’s a really nice example

    Remarkably rare to find a 'factory' manual one. There were 1734 Autech 260RS's made which are equipped with the RB26DETT and full R33 GTR driveline (including manual 5 Speed box).
    Then there was the RS Four S; which featured only (🤣) the RB25, but retained the GTR's gearbox and AWD system. Only about 2200 'S's where built (all Series 2's with the Neo motor which introduced variable valve timing) so they are not that much more common than the sought after 260RS.
    Fortunately, being a Nissan parts bin car, its very easy to chuck in skyline components so its an easy car to manual swap. There are probably more manual Stagea's running around today than there ever were when new.

      Good breakdown. I just bought an RS Four S myself. Jumped on it when I saw I could get it for almost 1/3 of the price of a 260RS.

    I'm having a HubNut moment, he's all about wipers but for me it's the pillarless doors, that silly little feature sold it for me! That car is truly stunning.

    These cars are the closest to a skyline I would ever own. Super cool wagons

      Yeah man it’s got the sounds but is a wagon it’s a win win for me

    That is a nice car. Its a series 1 but has the series 2 rear lights.
    Also if it has an alarm that keypad could be the override code should something happen to the fob.
    Its ashame its not staying on the channel, would be a different project to manual swap it
