Ladies and Gentlemen, up for grabs is one of the premiere subwoofers available on the market today, the Focal Utopia 27WX. Hand made in France, this subwoofer has a diameter of 11" or 270mm, with individual red magnets and chrome finish on the basket.

Regarded worldwide as one of the best sounding subs ever made, they retail in Australia for $1054. Enjoying daily music at 250RMS, these subs will excel with power in excess of 400RMS for music, with the recommended max rated at 750RMS.

The voice coil is single 3 ohm.

My mate that works at freeway has the same focal sub with audison amps and is worth near 20k with the rest of the equipement and installation, so yes i have heard audison amp's :D

i dropped in to the sale... busy as hell in there. Asked the focal rep a few questions about the 11" sub and what amps etc are good. I can't wait to get a sub back in my car... especially one as good as a Focal Utopia!!! :D

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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
