The Ben Simpson Memorial Cruise - proceeds to Youth Suicide Awareness

http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/BSM-Cru...eb-t210902.html

Hi all, this is my first time posting up a cruise event, so bare with me

This is a very important event, its a cruise for a special cause, that cause is Youth Suicide Awareness.

Basically on Feb 4th (please look at link - http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/BSM-Cru...b-t210902.html) a large cruise will be taking place, clubs from all over S.A will join and unite as one to donate money to help support Youth Suicide Awareness. A stuffed toy in the car on the day would also be much appreciated for those whom we've loved and lost.

The meeting place will be in the north eastern suburbs and venture into the hills, no speeders or show offs will be tolerated as this event has very special meaning to alot of people and cars crashing or being stupid will be kicked out. General rule of thumb.

If you arent a member of NS.Com, im sure the oldes Mark and Jules will come on this forum and pm those interested the final details. Police are being notified so therefore there should be no trouble.

Im hoping many of you attend, it will be great for some members of SAU to show there compassion, and there fine vehicles.

Thanks for the thread & your support Nathan.

We will try to be brief, on the 1st Feb 07 it will be 2yrs since we very unexpectedly lost our only son Ben (aka dr1ft_pig13)a 19yr old drift and import fanatic to suicide. How it all started Ben was also heavily involved in NS.com ....as we have been since he he left us. We have used all our time & resources to raise awareness of youth suicide & how it can happen to anyone. You may have seen his memorial stikas "RIP dr1ft_pig 13 always remembered" on imports around town.

On the day of his funeral the guys had a cruise in his honour and because he loved teddy bears they had a stuffed toy on an empty seat in his memory....so this will be the third memorial cruise.

You are MOST welcome to come in any type of vehicle...a gold coin donation to Youth Suicide Awareness & if u have a loved soft toy, please let it ride on an empty seat, with you. Hope you are able to make time & join us.......see you there.

    • 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.
