hey,

soz hotsky for not callin , got pissed off cause i could not get a frigin car park in all bloody city, so i just went home, yeah i think next time we need to organize a better place than station pier, it should be sumwhere closer to calder so there is no excuses as to where to meet ands u have to go there anyway, so u cant say it is to far for me to go there, ramble, ramble, ramble............

u know what i mean...............

i will be in the next round of drags as i will be there around 5-6pm so u will have to meet me there...................hehe

**** australian cars, go jap go!!!

yup! There were a few (rx7, 180's) but not as few as I might have expected. I reckon we get a few of our cars on there and at least have something interesting to see and talk about!

Next weekend I should have my nice chromies on, but unforunately its not looking too photoworthy at the mo' due to big crack in front bar...washed it before and its still there :):D sniff..

I bought a fibreglass kit yesterday so its time i learned how to fibreglass. Should be able to fix it as good as new, but its going to take some time.

none of the SAU guys ran their cars..jet 33 watched and videoed   there were 2 lines that i remember, a white 33gtr ran 12's i think  and black 33 plates'ohbehave'(a 10 sec car apparently!) but driver was running 12.70's

that OBHAVE or whatever it is car was in an issue of speed maagzine as some sort of crazy skyline that is well known all around australia as one of the fastets road cars, it was in the issue with the blue WRX and 180 on the front, i think it was issue #3, i left mine on the plane on the way home from my holiday (wanted to keep the da,nm photos of the gold GTR in there they had a huge review on) but oh well shit happens

If its one of Australia's fastest, he sure wasn't Australia's best driver! ;) A few GTS-T's should be able to hit the 12's that are on SAU (spread out all over Australia though).

He seemed pretty young though - did he build up the car himself or did he buy it from somebody like that already??

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
