I saw a quick clip on the news before, did the GT-R have that paint that changes from various colours like blue to red to orange/green etc? I saw it had white wheels. I think it was at a show I had my cars at on Saturday, got taken for a drive in it.

the guy in the 32 ran the red and pulvarized the poor couple in the van

That really is tragic and need never have occured. I watched someone do the same 2 weeks ago and it is scary. The guy in my case, just wasnt paying attention, it hadnt even just changed to red as I had stopped and the car next to me had for a good few seconds. This falcon just hammered straight through and hit the guy turning right, accross his path on his green arrow.

Fortunately both were ok but a lot of damage, unlike in this case.

RIP :w00t:

Not sure what news you were watching...looked like a black 32 with silver multi spoke wheels to me...

I was watching the right news, car isn't black and clearly had white wheels.

It was the same car I saw on Saturday, had it confirmed, driver is apparently in hospital under police guard.

      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.
