Iv been searching pully kits and from what ppl say it gives you more throttle response due to weighing half the weight of stock pullys and also looks better. Does any one use them, what are the cost of a good set and are they a defect?

Cheers

Dave

even if it looked better you wouldnt see it due to cam gear covers

That would be cam gears under the cam gear cover.

Pulleys are indeed visible, although the fan and shroud obscures much of them, unless you run a thermo of course.

But as Ryan basically said, don't bother, if you're serious get a lightened flywheel.

Light rims will make a difference too.

lightened flywheels arnt all that they are hyped up to be either...

U know your getting old when u mod your car and once u hit a certain pont it feels more like it belongs on a race track than a daily driver...

On/off clutches, cars that dont idle, or sit in stop start traffic aint fun to use as a regular transport some days...

GFB don't make a pulley for the RB series because they believe it'll be detrimental to the life of the main bearings.

Pulleys are a waste of time anyway. The biggest 'inertia' mod is the flywheel. You are saving up to 10kg on a mass which is *much* wider in diameter. Thus the inertial penalty is huge compared to a shitty pulley. Don't waste your time on them.

    • 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.
