Best run was through the nation when we left my place to swap the BM for the SSS at about 2:30am. Nooo traffic at all, just flat out, only traffic to deal with was 3 deer that wanted to become hood ornaments!

Oh and a big thanks to 400hp for the phone call today asking if my BMW was meant to be on a flatbed trailer heading towards Parramatta, unfortunately yes it was, but it's awesome to know people keep an eye out for others rides like that! ;)

And b4 you ask, it was the second diff I have blown since owning the car, and it let itself go when the light went green on the Macquarie st exit of the ED this morning. Shyt happens I guess :D

Thanks for keeping an eye out Ed, where did you see it? It feels strange seeing my car moving without hearing it, it's just not natural!

Hehe, that's cool mate... it's good karma :D

I was driving into the city and spotted it on a tilt-tray turning off Parramatta Rd. towards Glebe... you can't miss the quad zhorts, M badge or Red Devil in your rear window :)

Hey - Anyone from the North Shore/Northern Beaches going on this cruise, want to meet up and drive together to the meeting/start point? I'm going to be coming from St Ives.. I know 400HP wants to meet up in Chatswood ? I'm 100% sure i'll be going if my alarm goes off in the morning ! :P

Anyway reply here - i'll be checking tomorrow night ( fri night ) and saturday day ;)

-Alex.

Alright I don't know who else is coming from the North at the moment... I know Mona is picking up Tosh in the morning and I'm meeting Kelvin. The meeting place is the Shell station on the corner of Centennial Ave and Bridge St.

Darky and anyone else who hasn't been there. You go down Pac HWY until you get to Epping road. You turn onto Epping Rd. You shortly turn left onto Centennial and you stop at the first Shell you see.

Meeting here at 6:45.

So far Moanie and Tosh, Sura, Darky, maybe BY BY and me.

did someone say yum cha?

Kel and I coming along.

For the northsiders, which way you going after centenial drive, we're leaving abbotsford at 7am, could meet up one the way....channel 33 I guess.

    • 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.
