Refer sig :D

Seriously though, you still have it? :no:

mate if only u were in melb. mate of mine has an import wreckers that deals with only skylines, silvias etc. he :D:( would have EVERYTHING ur after. almost garentee it! :(

new boot rubber stoppers fitted. the boot shuts a lot nicer but theres still a rattle... any other suggestions apart from gutting the whole arse end?

checked the 2 layers of the boot skin/reinforcement area? (common issue after putting in big stereos - need to silicon the 2 layers together so they dont rattle)

checked the licence plate mounts and plate itself?

hey mark, yeah i think I kept the tie down clamp thing. I'll have a look when I get home tonight, if i've got it it's your for $0.00 inc postage.

Thanks Richard, much appreciated. The existing one was butchered by a ham-fisted auto elec that had never seen a spacer.

stock speakers etc. dont wanna add too much weight to my car. ill check the skins and support stuff. i might go nuts with a tube of black silicone.

the whole plate assembly has been checked as i thought my new plates might have been vibrating. its not this...

thanks for the suggestions :)

ive been getting it ever since my coilovers have been installed, might be exhaust? had a guy in a wrx pull upnext to me doing 80kmh to tell me my exhaust was loose hahahah

Easy way to fix it? good stereo, the cars are getting old and unfortunately rattly, ive ironed out alot in my car but there are some deeep ones

question: where do you guys access in behind the rear 1/4 panels? do you go in through the boot? or can you access them by taking the interior trim off as well?

i gutted the inside of the boot and the interior eg:back seats, upper and lower trims (destroying my upper trims in the process...) you cant see diddley sqwat from the interior. most of the rear quarters is thru the boot.

new rubber stoppers are on the boot lid now and the latch has been adjusted. still got rattles...

ive had the exhaust checked before with 3 of us under the car on a hoist banging and shaking the crappa out of it. not a peep. ive thought maybe it could have something to do with the suspention. i still have the stock setup. anyone had anything wrong with their stock suspention? any rattles? still gotta hunt this nosie down.

Mr Ed32, is true about a good stereo but i do sometimes like to drive and listen to the RB26 in front of me. wicked note. which is why i hate distracting rattles!

anybody seen that computer lookin thing thats located inside the left rear quarter panel in front of the jack holder? WTF is it??

thats the module for the rear dimister? correct me if iam wrong >_<........and have u checked the left seat belt harness, if its bolted/seated down properly? got the same rattles in my car figured one of them just one more to find...sounds like the barrier from the boot to rear seats..but havent been too bothered to find out.

i havnt tried the seatbelts yet. thanks for the suggestion. ive had the rear seats out and the panel between the boot and the cab out and the noise is still in there. it actually became louder. this is why i reckon its gotta be coming from the boot somewhere.

does anybody agree that its the module for the rear demister in the left hand rear quarter panel?

I have had this rattle since I bought my car and I know theres a bracket in the quarter panel holding the jack (in mine anyway).

Ive always thought it was the parcel shelf being loose and the speaker rattling against the frame....meh!

yea ive got that jack bracket in the rear panel. its securely fixed. ive driven around with the inside of the back of my car completely gutted including the parcel shelf. still hear this damn rattle! im leaning toward maybe the suspention setup?? its still the stock stuff so...

sorry to reply such an old post , but i had the same problem on my r32gtst. Its driving me insane ! I sent my car to centreline performance to get them checked if its the suspension, but after a thorough check, it wasnt. I used to ask my mechanic to tighten the exhaust harness before and it was quieter. I asked a new mechanic recently to tighten it and they say it cant be tighten... so im unsure now ... Its really very annoying !!

    • 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.
