First i'd like to thanks JACK (Citywide Towing 0419 877 437) for organising a Tow truck coming all the way from Melb to Heathcote to tow my mate's car home. :P

Secondly i'd like to thank JACK ....oh sorry Jack's FATHER for driving his tow truck all the way up to Heathcote to help us out at a very mate's rate. A very friendly gentlment too.

Thanks YLWGTR for respray my bonet back to the tip top condition, you're a pro mate.

Warning, while we were at Heathcote today, a highway patrol car rocked in the pit area. Mr officer then took a walk around try to pick on cars but unfortunately the amount of car's trailer there were as much as cars that run on the day so they left disappointed.

You'd like to think by doing the right thing, we drive 2 hours + away to test our cars out just to see officers rock up at a place that they encourage us to come and test our cars out instead of the street.

So whatever you do next time at the drag strip, becarefull. Little that they know WE import drivers love to run our cars on street tyres, street tune and street trims. We are not weak sources that us slick, un bolt their cat's back, use high octance neither NOS or if we do we'd arrive in style (on trailer ofcourse :D).

wow towing from heathcote would have been a mint if it wasnt at mate rates, although i would still imagine it to be a fair amount of $$..

A shame about the cop, they should be encouraging people who are doing the right thing!!

Did you run your car West?

Nah, i didn't run my car mate though the last time i was there i ran 12.2 with 1.9 60ft time @5k dump. I'll wait for the next SAU drag day.

I was about to go today as well with my mates - they were running their Black RX7 Series 6. Good thing i didn't go, they only ran the car once and it broke down.

Yeah i saw that car, FULL SICK :P. It currently holding record for fastest street register Series 6. Go to love the TD-H 88.

Your mate were trying to help my friend as well, we borrowed tools off him but couldnt' fix anything, it was BILL wasn't it?

Yep Bill from Rotary Performance Centre. Its got the biggest T88 in the market :P

They havent broken the record yet, but will do in time - they've only ran the car around 3-4 times. Best is 9.8 at the moment, i think 9.6 is the record for street trim.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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?

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
