I don't get it? I got 275/40/17 on the back of my old gtst with only rolled lips on the guards. How much wider did you want?

what do "pumped guards" look like?

The only way to really flare the guards is to cut the existing lips off and weld something bigger in place, but I don't see how you could get that done and painted for $1k?

I think he wants 265's up the front too.

i got 265s on my front now and no problem... only time i ever hear scraping is when I do a full lock... could be because of the frontal mud guards

Did you notice a big difference with 265s up front?

I thought you said a few posts ago that you had 20s on with no problems~

no, the 20s were scraping at the front too but only on full lock and i had much smaller tyres which helped. the 20s with 265 on them would be a very bad idea. difference... no idea as I only ever used 255s and 265s at front (well except the 20s but that was just a trial and didnt do a real driving test... those rims are heavy as hell anyways so cant compare). I don't know if having fat tyres up front does any significant traction improvement. I just been putting wide ones as thats what my mate gets me.

    • 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.
