Hey guys had my r34 broken into today, tried to nick my system but alarm and i scared them off thankfully..

bad news is i lost my passenger side window because they didnt seem to realise I had a window there and must have put a fist straight through it..

To my sadness there was no blood, wouldnt be to phased if there was tho .. reds faster anyways... would of been gr8 if he hurt himself tho..

Anyways to my point anyone know where to source a 1998 R34 GTT passenger side window?? O'brien didnt even know a 98 GTT existed and wreckers are yet to ring back so thought id hit you guys up..

If anyone can help please do.

I feel for you man; those windows are a pain in the ass to get a hold of. I had the same thing happen to me (do a search of my threads); except in my instance there was blood :)

My advice (from experience) - is to first see if anyone is wrecking a R34 and take the entire door assembly; else get it from wreckers. Nissan want HEAPS for that piece of glass so don't go there unless it's your last resort.

The reason why I said to take the whole door assembly is because it's quite an involved process to get the glass out; best leave it to the person doing the R&R job.

PS; have fun getting all the glass out from inside the door; took me a few days and I still found small fragments everywhere :D

My alarm went off on monday, sent me a message, i was like, alright fellas, its on...

pants were near door so i put them on, went out to the car, car looked fine...

Turns out, some sort of weapon of a car set the motion sensor off... cause it did a lap later... sounded like an F1 car... I was inside, but awake this time to hear it... Set the motion sensor off again... Must have been going f**king fast too... well over 200k... Only heard the sound for about 3 seconds, then it was gone... it rattled the windows of the house too...

You know how hard u have to bash the window to smash that glass its about 4-5mm thick .. its not going bang without a fight ..

Hence my alarm blaring away.. intentionally loud for effect of GET THE f**k OUT OF MY CAR YOU PRICK!!!

Never seen a silver R34 in campsie .. have seen a yellow one .. looks alot like the powerplay one.. actually identical

    • 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.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
