So I Got A New Pair Of Shoes For The Skyline


Recommended Posts

hey guys just picked up a pair of shoes for my baby. they look pretty sweet.

Osaka Racing Rims (not sure of model)

19x8 and 19x9 with 245/35/19 all around.

just thought would have a show and tell.

they fill the guards nicely

btw, go global tyres in bell st preston, mad ass prices on all goods.

yeh the look good. im loving the fact that they are 19's. 18's looked ok but 19 looked tough.

for those that say they belong on other cars, your just jealous coz u got stockies :P

Just so you know...

Going from stock to your current rims

Speedometer Difference: 3.540% too slow..

You can no longer rotate your wheels..

and just watch your rear tyres.. The inside of the rear guard folds in.. so you need to make sure its not srubbing :P

I have 18x8 on the front and 18x9 on the rear.. so i know all about neagative camber and its tyre chewing ability.

now thats out of the way..

nice rims :rolleyes:

with 19's on the back i got no rubbing, it clears the guards by about 5mm. enough not to chew them. and yes my speedo is out, i know that. i used my gps to check it out and its out by about 2-3km/h. i have fully adjustable front and rear camber on my skyline, its all been sorted so it dont chew.

    • 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.
