Thanks for the replies all.

I have been around to a few yards and just by talking to them you get to know what they are on about.

There are a few yards I would NEVER go back to, ever again.

At least Tuff Toys have been open, honest and upfront with costs, times and viewing the car. (I have not driven it, nor do I want to, yet)

Heck, some yards I went to did not even bother talking to me. (Yup, I'll go to the yard in T-Shirt, shorts and thongs)

Thats how I have bought 12 or so brand new cars (And our house) If they treat me right, I will buy a car from them, if not, they just lost a cash paying customer!

So far the folks at Tuff Toys have been decent to me and the wife.

The only thing the wife is a little worried about is warrenty on a $40,000 Skyline.

PS: For all those who have offered me in private their own cars, thankyou for your time. (The wife has decided she likes this car, and all those who are married will know that when your partner puts her foot down concerning cars, it's final.)

Besides, who would argue about a R34, black with only 10,000 kays on the clock? (And yes, looks like it too!)

Dragon - youre just whipped :rolleyes:

As an aside - It doesnt matter where you buy your car, it could break down on the way home, mechanical things fail, and the car yard may have had sufficient mechanical work done on the car, but if its working, you cant fix it. If it breaks on the way home, it wasnt broken when they had it, and you cant always blame the mechanic/car yard. Sometimes you can.

      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.
