I fail to understand why 'everyone' would want a Japanese manual.... i mean, should just 1 person buy it, and then do a group buy on translating the entire manual?

That way everyone still pays around the $100 mark, and get a Translated copy instead. Mind you it may have taken longer, but I know personally Id NEVER fork out the cash for a foreign languange book which Ive got no time or resources to have translated.

oh well, all the best with it - if someone ever translates it, PM me and Id love to buy a proper copy in the future.

sorry guys, I'm in adelaide atm since last week, and I haven't had access to the interweb till yesterday. Turns out they weren't mailed out, but I've been told they will be shortly.

have you found out if they have been mailed yet?

Sorry andrew they haven't been mailed out... real bad timing as I just left on holidays, and I've been in Adelaide for the last week (as per last post) and in Syd till the 23rd. If anyone wants their money back I'm happy to refund it.

im not worried bout the money, ive just got things that i want to do to my stagea, and it would be much easier with the manuals.

anyways...so your saying that we should definately have them by the end of the month?

  • 2 weeks later...

Be careful please Alex, slandering of businesses is not tolerated anywhere on the forums.

Although I can understand everyone's frustrations, this has nothing to do with JSpec, it has to do with Funky the postage is his responcability, no matter who he gave it to for postage, he should be the one ultamitly responcable for it. Now he has stated his reasons for nothing happening, and if you do not recieve anything from him or a refund, then I would suggest you all submit a bad trader rating.

Other than that, there is not much else you can do.

All that said I would have to say that people have lives and if Funky is on holidays then there is nothing much he can do until he gets back. If no joy is gained after that, then and only then proceede further.

edited; not getting involved in this one!!

(although if Alex has had delay problems before with Jspec, then his percieved point of view can not be read as slanderous)

I've purchased two cars through J-spec.

One arrived, there were delays all over the place, but thats understandable so no harm done.

The second, well, there must not be many mechanics in Japan as i waited over 6 weeks for an inspection that never happend and in the end demanded the car be resold and a refund given.

In this case, in post #72 Funky said "They were sent middle of last week (using regular post) so it should arrive soon." So that makes me think that the CD's were actually already burnt and ready to go. Hence, the hold up must be with Jspec as he said in post #83 "Might check with the guy that does the postal run (sent with company mail) to see what was done"

Unfortunatly I lack to see why Funky needs to be in Melbourne for them to be sent? They are burnt, packed, addressed and ready to go....according to him. Both Ian and I have also offered to go around there and sort this out.

I know it is frustrating guys, buy yelling and screaming about things isnt going to solve anything is it?

I have PM'd Funky about this, but lets all try to stay civilised and deal with this in an adult manner please!

BTW I am on no ones side, just trying to keep the thread from going ugly, that's all.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
