I went out there with a friend to film his ute.

i took my gtr out but didnt run. i dont find drag racing that interesting. but wouldnt mind doing it once so i can be a sick c**t.

i filmed two guys out there, one in a black gtr that was fairly stock by the looks of it, you did a great last run which i dont think i got on film

and the red one, i got you a few times also but it seemed your launches were letting you down.

if you want the footage i have i will rip it off the camera later today and send it to you, (if your on here) let me know.

Warned for an 11.8 WTF. so you need to tack the cooler piping. tell me when, i will come over and you can do mine as well :happy:

Ha, I'm going to get those tuff clamps from just jap to enclose that massive 1.25 bar of BOOOOOOst psi!!!

It gave me the s$%ts.

Yeah, run quicker than 12sec now and you need andra license $120, I'm sure.

I didn't get towed! It drove under it's own NA power!

Got a best time of 12.4. Revving it too far for turbos power band, I guess.

Worst 23.0 NA baby!!!

Michael's black GTR ran a 11.8 and got warned!

Oh na power on the gtr is loads of fun :(

now i know why i dont want to go drag racing. the 45 bucks will soon turn into $165 i think i'd rather a track day :D

i'm going to check out pritek for some clamps mine are giving me the shits too.

only clamps worth buying imo: sard dual bead clamps. not too hard on the wallet either. i have put them on the GTR and have never blown a hose in 3 years...

No need to go for Sard specifically - Pirtek sells some serious clamps which I have used on the GTR and my S14 in the past and they never let me down.

yeah it's just that sard are the only ones I've seen that have 2 beads which means they will hold a good seal with much less physical force (no need to tighten them up to buggery like with the single bead clamps). you are right, there is no reason conventional clamps wont work fine if used properly though.

its the problem with conventional ones they are like a use once and replace deal. but they definatley do the job if they are in good condition :huh:

11.99 to be exact :laugh:

you do know that means the same thing, yeah? unless you mean 10.99 and below

below 12sec you need andra licence.. .below 10secs you need to get a roll cage and meet other wsid requirements

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
