Not really sure.. But taking the dash out takes abit of time.

Took me a bit first time, then stuff up some stuff and had to redo it.. but I got better lol.

Make sure the dials you have are completely flat and that it doesnt require the needles to be bent to be taken out. I heard the cyberstork ones were good. Not sure.

I put mine on mine, then they werent flat (The crap ones on ebay) tacho would stick at 3krpm. Took em off after 2 weeks. Too much bling!

There are a few tuts around SAU on how to take out the dash, and take off the dash. Then probably take the dash to someone to get the dials installed.

Mate,

You have more care than than anyone else. I have them done by "professionals". When I saw how they done it, I wished that I would have done it..myself. At the end I sold the dash. The best think you can do is get yourself a white GTR one. I saw performance-wise (paul) has one for sale on e-bay with just a few KM on it. They fit perfectly, look really sexy and they work. Mine use to get stuck on 5Krpm and was not a cheap one (el-dial).

Good luck,

EUG.

      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.
