I'm a member of Ipswich Kart Club .. joined last year and got into racing in Leopard (125cc electric start, clutch , water cooled, no need for a pusher to get you started), was out there yesterday for the first race meeting of the year (just don't ask how I went)

I believe they are expecting at least 100 ppl next weekend .. and there won't be a problem with a whole group of you guys turning up. Unfortunaely I won't be out there cause I'm out of town with work next weekend :laugh:

I would think that the minimum age would be about 7 to have a go ... but under 18 probably need parents signature on the paperwork, and don't forget to wear / take covered shoes

would be worth ringing the club to confirm this (Debbie - 0411 717 547)

you will have some serious fun, but not sure what karts will be available to drive (members are loaning their karts to the club for the day) and I'm not sure that the 'fastest' water cooled classes will be available. But I'm sure that if hire karts are the only ones you have driven before you will find these karts very different

Anyone who heads out .. If you need any information after the day about getting into the sport just PM me .. I'll be more than happy to help you out .. who know's we could end up with a SAU Karting Team

    • 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.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
