hey mate.

yea i know this car and have driven it and worked on it since he brought it only a few months back. its a realy orsom car and if i didnt already have one id be right on top of this one. a very good buy!

if you want any more info let me know.

I have seen it buzzing around a fair bit. It does sound like it moves when he boots it. I personally havent heard any problems about it. Alot of rumours around about how much power the thing actually makes, I got no idea on the facts so I won't say anything. It's neat though, only fault I could pick from a distance looking at it is that it's never had similar wheels (even in the photo in the paper they are odd) but if you're going to drift it then it wouldn't matter. Go check it out and let us know what ya think of it!

went and checked out car, not bad minor things needing doing, depends how much of a perfectionist you are, will be an alright buy for someone who wants some fun. there was just a few things i didnt like. if he wants the $15,000 for the car id suggest cleaning the engine bay n spraying the rocker.

thats interesting as im yet to see a cheaper r32 with an rb25. when you take a 10,000 r32 and put in a 5,000 r33 engine and g box plus the few thousand worth of engine mods than 15,000 doesnt sound to bat to me especialy when it is here in tassy with fresh rego and new tyres.

oh and im pretty sure the wheels are the same just the rears have dish.

if you want any specs of what it does have than feel free to ask me.

i actually asked around about the car and heard a few things and yeah it costs money to do the conversion but if you look at how much the car still needs spent on it is it worth it.

you are going to get that with any car you buy. lots of things to tidy up and change to suit you. like has been said befor the value for money realy is there and it doesnt cost much to tidy things up once you have a car compared to starting from scatch.

the engine has 85,000kms on it the chassis has 185,000 on it all the things are minor that need doing yes but changing most of the bushes and cleaning stuff up does cost money, im not saying its a bad car unless what ive been told is true but i wouldnt pay that much for the car and i did see it when it was for sale in Vic so i knoe how much they were asking for it, i also dont like the fact that it uses the microtech which has no afm but thats my personal oppinion, thats all i have to say on the car n i wish him luck with the sale

well in 2 years time he'll have some fun then. plenty of time for mates to drive it. thats all right though long as hes happy it all comes down to personal oppinion and he has plenty of time to work on the car now anyway. even if he has problems its still a skyline and not a crappy (insert car make of your choice)

    • 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.
