I just purchased one of these, i was tossing up between it and the nice shiny JUN style ones on E-bay, i know these are a bit crappy, but worth a try for the price, i am not expecting allot when it arrives.

i am just disapointed i never got in on the SAU group buy... i think it's $195 delievered.. not bad... when i had to pay $350... if it is any good i will buy another $200 one as a spare if it does crack or break...

My only concear is if it does crack that bits of cast will go straight into my engine... I guess we'll have to wait and see...

When get mine i will take pics of the whole job...

As for the post above, is it worth it? well i dunno it will only be in my racecar 33.. It's motor is starting to get a bit sad and we've got 2 spare stocko det motors without accesories... i am really just interested to see what difference they make and what quality they are...

i will let you all know... lol

iterested to see results,

has anyone fittted one to an r34 gtt yet? i think you would need to change iac valve to r33 style and injectors. any one know if anything else needs to be modified to make it fit and r34?

ssame as the 'stryder' ones. The bell mouths are hard up against the plenum walls, making them largely useless

Raised/tuned length bell mouths are only practical for Naturally Asperated engines, raising the bell mouth on a forced induction setup is useless.

I wouldn't call those rings in that plenum "bell mouth".

I think you are correct about the bell mouths, they are only of real benifit during negative pressure, although perhaps someone can confirm that they don't so anything under boost situations? They help offset the issue with having a bigger plenum volume to some extent, that has a negative effect on vacume situations in NA mode.

I wouldn't call them bell mouths either execpt that the manufacterer claims that they are, and they sort of look like them although very crap versions.

Klenn thank you for report.

Does it have a nipple (or a hole for a nipple) for turbo water-feed near cyl. No 6?

Where is your washer bottle now? Is it relocated or totaly removed?

Um no it didnt have a nipple(if its the one im thinking about-the one that runs parallel with the fuel rail and has a nipple right at the back??) it does not have that but from what I can remember it was not really nessary and the coolant running through there would have heated up the manifold more. I just run a pipe underneath & connected it up. I also left the coolant pipes off the t/b aswell.

Um I made the i/c pipe quite tight so it goes straight down the standard washer will not fit you could use a smaller 1 off another car, I chose to make 1 out of perspex with a swinging lid so I can fill it with ice it & put another washer motor in for i/c sprayer.

    • 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.
