and noticed there is a bit of a gap between the body (under lights and skyline logo panel) and the top of the boykit

i put the stock bar back on and there isnt as much as the 400r bar

anyone got any pics of there 400r bars or have noticed this

yes i have a 400R front bar on mine. i also noticed the gap is slightly bigger between the bar and the head lights , but no one else has noticed yet.

you dont have to bend or cut your plates just use the middle holes of the plate and put in washers or some sort of spacer between the plate and the bar.

correct me if i'm wrong but there is no such thing as an oem 400r kit for a gtst??

100% correct.

The 400r was a 99 car limited edition 33 GT-R w/ stroked 2.8 litre 400hp motor. Nismo never licensed this kit.

By definition they are all copies (but so what, it's a coolio kit!).

no its not cyal8r.

guess again.

i recon the bar is too dam low. i wish i had of got a 2 piece one so i could take the bottom piece off. to late now but.

i have 18s on the car but it may seem high cause i havent lowered it yet. still stock suspension.

I think most of you have seen this:

One piece bar. 17" rims. Lowered HKS susp.

It is too damn low.

This explains why yours looks 'high' and mine looks low.

It's my impression that the 400r bar + skirts are all rather conservative looking.

The skirts have some vent holes that do fark all and the rear bar is just a bit heavier set so it matches a big exhaust better.

It's only the front bar that looks a little loony.

your right only the front 400r bar looks loney, rest of the kit is pretty ordinary thats why im trying to chase up impul side skirts and rear bar for mine (i think the impul kit looks more aggresive.

p.s when are you going to give them trailer blinkers the flick? or atleast change them to clear one like mine..lol

Merli

corect me if im wrong but u where at eastern creek for the last street meet weren't you?

what times did you end up running?

    • 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.
