So like, I'm sick of fixing this thing... Broken cam shaft, cam shaft barings need replacing, a million other things. So Ive diceded to take it to hardcore (cause of some of the hot cars Ive seen drive outa there) and get it fixed, and modified.

I have a limit of 10 big ones (not 10 dolars) and I was going to get them to do,

Brakes,

fix car,

turbo,

clutch (I spun it)

and gear box needs 2nd to be rebuilt.

Do you think 10g's will cover that, and possibly some? I dont wanna walk in there and sound like a moron asking for this shit and being told its gonna cost my first born, and possible my left nut.

err - If you're going to turbo, I think it'd probably be cheaper to engine swap to an rb20det...

and if you are going to do that, take the rb25 route... hell yeah.

and to indluge my little fantasy... drop in a Nissan V8. just save enough for the g/b and brakes... if you beef up to GO, beef up the STOP...

plus r32 gtr 5 stud brake conversion and then ur set (4 pot front 2 pot rear, much bigger discs than the silvia - much bigger)

s13 can take the r32 gtr brakes - then with some guard rolling and some offset spacers u can take just about any rim that will fit a skyline

yep, definately bin your old NA 20 and go for a 25DET. try and get 25DET gearbox too but if you cant get your 20 box rebuilt. you should be able to do everything you need within your $10K budget.

So like, apparently Hardcore is no longer. I went to a place called TTR and they wanted 10g's to do;

Half cut, (4,000)

brakes R32 GTS, plus diff (2,500)

intercooler and piping (1,000)

and a 3inch exhaust.

I dont think its worth it. Does anyone know a good place to take my baby to, to get this stuff done? somewhere you've been to before and loved the results?

Yerp you heard correctly.. Hardcore was officially non exhistant as of 15th of september i think. That company went to the shit when peter and bruce sold it anyway. Im not to sure about where you can pick up an engine (check on here?) but I think peter who used to be part owners of hardcore may do the work for you. And he will most probly be able to sus out an engine for you. He has his own business now called pro torque performance its still in slacks creek. Give him a ring on 0438 876 649 and just tell him your situation.

I dont think its worth it.

i seem to agree as would anyone else on here...

    • 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.
