Hey guys not sure if this is the right section to be asking but please delete if I'm wrong! ^_^

Whats everyone think of smoked tail light centers? Just a photoshop of the last picture but I love it and think I'll do it soon625535_561547750546261_1221693203_n.jpg

That looks quite good! Really highlights against the white. I think the question would just be how it looks under braking?

@@Dillon34, what's it like with the lights and blinkers on?

It looks good with the lights on (see picture) but the blinkers don't look as good to be honest. Paint wasn't perfect and it really shows up when the blinkers are on, also although they are still clear to see....they are more red than orange for some reason haha

Not ideal but I'm happy with it all in all

Car look great! Lights are nice as well. Awesome pic Drew. May I ask where you picked up the bonnet from?

Thanks, I've been waiting ever since I picked up the GTR around 4 years ago to get this bonnet lol Its a Border Bonnet, picked it up from a mate who's car it was on when he got it into the country and he wanted the Z-Tune style so I grabbed it off him. Priced it up to bring one in from Japan and it was around 3.5k. Its Carbon Fibre but I had mine painted by BodyForm Motorsports @ Smithfield to blend in with the rest of the car.

Ah right. Quite lucky then! I've seen quite a few companies in Aus have the Z-Tune style one available to buy (not to mention the endless supply of cheap copies) but not this one. I do really like that one though. Can you still use the standard strut brace with that bonnet or have you got an aftermarket one?

    • 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.
