They are carbon fibre ducts made by Border Racing Japan. I painted them matt black as they had heaps of stone chips.

They are functional in the way that my HKS oil cooler sits behind the passenger side duct, I've also cut a square hole out of the guard liner so the air comes in through the duct, passes through the oil cooler and out the back through the hole in the guard liner. Made a heap of difference to oil temps on the track.

Well spotted, been to heaps of WRX days, one of the more organised clubs in regards to the way they run their days. Got 1st place overall in the Skyline class back in 2007.

Enough of the bragging... :)

No ducting to the intercooler or radiator, doesn't seem to need it. Although a little ducting wouldn't hurt...

omg loving the skylines in this thread!!! i want more moneys!!!!

Heres my 98 Gtst 40th anniversary midnight purple.

only had her 6 weeks!!! pretty much bone stock except the hks mushroom filter an a cheap hks style bov ( soon to be replaced )

That 40th Anniversary looked a lot like mine when I first got it. A lot has changed :)

I think there is even a 40th ann. thread going on somewhere too.

Yeah i love what you've done with yours.

I REALLY want to get some 34GTR wheels for mine i think they look the sex!

Gonna get GTR wing, skirts and front bumper for mine sometime this year.

Not because i wanto fool people into thinking its a GTR just because i love the look and cant afford a GTR at the mo.

No GTR poser badges as that's just an insult and not fair on the people that have actually forked out for one. :P

Brockas - Noticed you have Alcons aswell, which model/size are they???

Hey mate, they are billet Alcon XF calipers off NASCAR cars a few years back.

They lock a tyre at 140km/h.

I'm actually looking to downgrade, they are almost too powerful for my limited driving skill!

That Orange 33 3 posts above needs some serious lowering...

otherwise looks nice...

@Rav3nz...get rid of that Mushroom pod dude..

they dont filter good. Get an Apexi one.

There is a thread somewhere with the results of various pods, Apexi came ontop!

Really? Sh!t it came with the car but it was dirty as so i just forked out $80 getting a new blanket for it.

Like is it actually bad for the car or does the apexi just filter a little bit better? if its ALOT better then ill buy one next pay lol

I had an apexi on my old 34 gtt and really liked it but yeh this came with the car.

if its not a biggie then ill wait an just get my zorst and front mount and change the filter to an apexi later when this one gets dirty.

It's fine. The only downside is the foam ones start disintegrating with age and wear and little bits of foam end up going into the airflow metre/turbo. However if it is brand new it'll be fine for quite a long time, the HKS ones are decent enough.

Nice work, are they the endurance caliper? Do they take a 36mm thick rotor and 30 mm thick pads?

Do you still run ABS? I can get mine to lock up for a tenth of a second before ABS kicks in and does its thing. Thats running RE55s tyres...

Like the pic in your sig, looks familiar....

    • 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.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
