I was supposed to be back in Melbourne last week, but work commitment forced me to stay like 5 months longer here!!! I missed my car badly!

And there is no decent Skyline over here... There is a 1000BHP R34 GT-R, but I've never seen it on the street! And the one I saw was a V-Spec II, but the owner don't have the faintest clue what he got! And he's an arrogant dickhead, too!

A couple of GT-t, but they are all done up for shows... What's happening here??? Don't anybody understand what Skyline is all about??? I need help... or THEY NEED HELP???

Ahhh there you are mein freund. Yes it's understandable some skyline owners don't know what they've got 'cept for the fact that they own a skyline cos it's so darn cool. Yeah it is cool, but it's more then that!

Ran into this HK guy who didn't even know his GTST was turbocharged. Even with the glaring 'Turbo' words emblazoned in his engine bay.

Crikey, 5 more months?! Hmmm, I volunteer to take care of your care while you're away :P

Ah, yes! I'm in Jakarta, Indonesia, by the way... It's really sad to know that they don't even know a GTS-t is turbocharged. How ignorance can they get?

Probably the constant heat in the region don't attract that many followers for the Skylines... It's humid, too! I don't know, is humidity should be an advantage or disadvantage for a turbo car?

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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
