Got some of the R33 stripped on the weekend. just have to take the rear seats out, and the carpets now.

We have the same brakes and air compressors :P

And it looks like my rotors are on the wrong way, thanks for posting that pic up!

the slots don't matter, it's the direction of the vanes that's important. in the pic posted you can just see the curve/angle of the vanes is correct. phunky, yours may have the slots cut the other way in relation to the vanes. (ie with the rotors mounted correctly vane wise your slots may face the other way).

Good to see that everyone has been working hard on thier machines, as have I. I've been working on seting up a set of GTR throttle bodies and plenum on to an RB25. Not a job for the feint hearted. Finaly got a decent tune in to it today. No real power increase but emensly different fuel mapping was need everywhere and took the best part of the day. In the end the power comes on a little earlier in the rev range, has a flatter curve and moved peak power up by nearly 1000rpm in the rev range. Might be easier to power out of corners? will track test and refine tomorrow at morganpark.

Will post up some pics later. Off to do a wheel alignment for gatton street sprints and testing.

Mine are from a GT-R, and are the same brand of rotor, so I think they're on backwards... I knew I'd get it wrong :pirate:

hehe, thats the second time your rotors have been put on the wrong way dane... i did it the first time they went on the gtr, didn't notice until it i'd put everything away and taken the car off the hoist!

This is my baby hopping to have it finished by super lap 2010 but it costs so such.

It has an RB30/26 Motec M800 Alcon's ext and it is all done by Ben at Race Pace Motorsports.

mumma mia! that's a spicy meatball you have there.

any more details? turbo(s)? suspension? it looks very serious, and very nicely done so far. no doubt it will be a weapon as ben certainly knows how to make a quick track GTR. :)

when it's finished I'd be happy to test crash... i mean test drive it for you... :P

Thanks for the thumbs up guys :ermm: .

The Turbo is one of Ben's custom T04Z's on a Race Pace manifold with an HKS 60mm gate.

The suspension will be a set of Bens custom tein's and all links will be Ikeya Formula

I have made an addapter manifold to mount a set of GTR throttle bodies and plenum for my RB25. It has worked quite well but not improved the area of the fine throttle response I was looking for. It has improved and moved the power up higher in revs though.

I'm going back to the old setup.

interesting, i went the rb26 plenum setup on my 25 and i gave alot of response.

Before the setup had full boost (16psi) at 3300rpm

after

Full boost (18psi) at 3000rpm

:sweat:

I'm using the blitz kit

    • 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? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • 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.
