I must admit I would go back to the dealership.

You would be stupid to tell any one what you were doing.

Mind you If I had the money to replace the motor I would.

Except the internals would be a lot nicer. :P

Then again I wouldn't mod the car and do some thing as stupid as he did without knowing I could replace the motor if it went bang.

The world is a cruel place. :)

hehe, well american - explains 95% of it.

Just lucky with the Nissans the stock turbo goes pop before the rest of the engine does :P not a bad Idiot proofing. Doesn't say much for the intelligence of the WRX management though to let it hose itself without some sort of basic protection. Then again, it does sound like he lost an oil line to the turb .. not much you can do about that i guess.

Holy crap.

OK, the guy was a bit of a novice and overmodded his car. BUt you have got to be a sick twisted ***hole to dob someone in to the dealer over this one.

I mean like he said he did get it done by a mechanic and they coulda/shoulda told him or warned him.

Makes you appreciate good tuners!

I would try and defraud the dealership too but I have no morals. What they did was harsh, but on the other hand, he did deserve it.... and he was pretty foolish, especially going to a 3rd dealership and signing saying he hadnt modded the car.

Would love to know what happened to him in the end.

      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.
