Hey all,

Please leave a comment on why you made your choice.

I am leaning more towards option 2.

OPTION 1 - URAS kit with 19's. With this option the car can not be lowered much as it be too low and hard to tackle drive-ways etc. This was the look (sort of) that we had on Cefiro. Looked great but was a bit hard as a daily.

OPTION 2 - Nissan Factory option kit with 19's and dropped. Low cars look hot in many ways. Would be easier as a daily driver. Parts would be stronger then the aftermarket kit. Leaves a little more in the pocket todo something else like interior,etc

OPTION 3 - No kit with 19 or 20's and dropped. This is what I call the "300C" look. with the right colour will look grat. same advantages as above. Con is less "modified" look.

with all options I will lip/roll and pump the rear a little. Might get a boot lip or no rear spoiler at all (it has a GTT rear wing at the moment). Thinking of a rear window spoiler. Eyelids are a must. Some sort of bonnet mod: ie: small vent on a side, large vent in the centre or BA XR8 bulge in the center. Interior work is on the list but in the air as the seats are mint...just needing a full steam clean everywhere. but having saying that a nice retrim would do the trick.

thanks for your opinions.

"No kit with 19 or 20's and dropped" without QUESTION. 20s preferably...and here are my reasons;

(1) The other options are far too common

(2) More practical to be driven (without a kit)

(3) R34 sedan suits the VIP look perfectly due to the rear arches sitting so much lower than the fronts...which makes it look 'lower'

My 2c!

Cheers,

Chris

I would go the no kit and riding on rims. Just make sure they're not some shitty 7" wide wheels. :)

Not only does not having a kit look better (at times), it'll be easier for you as a daily. I just like cars which look nice and simple. Having a kit will give you attention from cops and I'm sure no one wants attention from cops.

if i went a kit

i would go uras all the way round,

or at least side and back,then use the factory nismo front(with skyline written on the front)

an as far as i no its illegal to have 20's as the r34 come out with 17's

llegaly your only able to go up 2 sizes from factory

I'd pick Option 2:

The nissan factory kits actually look good at the same time being discreet. Wheel choice will play a big part and lowered is a definate.

The Uras kit has been done to death and although looks ok will not look any good if its not lowered.

Heres mine :D

    • 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.
