all i have to say is nothing is a bolt on kit. It took most of the afternoon - we had to run around for food/misc duties. Performance? I wouldnt have a clue, you would have to ask will that but i recall him saying is that it doesnt make a difference which i then replied its just a safety modification.

btw do you remember the name of the filler that you were going to recommend for me to use on the car - its all sanded back now. Just need to fill some dents and its ready for primer. yipee

btw will is definately serious bout upping the performance on his car sam. When i was there i discovered his pfc, fmic - which we installed and oil cooler. Didnt see any aftermarket turbs though. His getting a tune tomorrow morning supposively @ boost worx.

yeah FMICs don't improve performance - if anything they degrade performance slightly, as they make cars a little more laggy (due to the car having to pressurise a larger volume before making boost). But, they are vital if you want to up boost, and they lower the intake charge temperature to help prevent pinging.

sam, do u want a cai box for your 33? Im going to get will's cai box - the one he bought of max, and fabricate it for 33's and 32's. I inspected it when we had to remove the air filter and its looks quite easy to do as long as i can get the materials. So are you keen?

this is the exact cai box will has. I dont know if it does any good would it wouldnt hurt having one. Andrew, would you be keen for one too for the 34? =D If so i would need your car or at least access to its engine bay. =D =D

ive got a home-made heat-shield atm, i would like a full cai box, but money is a bit scarce atm (pooling all of it towards re-build), so maybe later on

hopefully he's going to sell the oil cooler to me. Nah, the pfc isnt hooked up yet. He got george at gt autosound to install it today along with a fuel pump apparently, we were there yesterday to get a hole cut in the engine bay for the fmic and he was talking bout his appointment. Although, I dont know why he's getting/got the pfc installed though because 1/its plug and play which means its basically not hand to install even my sister can do it 2/ it would more than likely be running in limp mode until it can be tuned properly which he's getting done tomorrow at bw.

    • 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.
