for sure Dan; you ignore just about any price you'd see on the piece of paper hanging in the window of a car at a car yard.

jeez i remember the price listed in the window of my white 33 (in my avatar) when i bought it from a yard back in the day... we knocked quite a sum of that price off compared to what i paid

guys need ya help palease

oka so went to go see my car today down at premier paint n panel n its finally coming together..yay..but a lil problem has occured..they have gotten my car to start and god does it sound good to finally here it again lol but now my hicas light is on and the steering is heavy as...ive had the hicas light on before but the steering wasnt affected..all i did was change the power steering fluid and it went away.

the guy said that had to disconnect some hoses around the power steering pump to do some work so im hoping that it just needs a top up of some fluid

would i be right??? or is it something else??

there hoping to have my car finished by this friday....cant wait

ur help will be appreciated.thanks

[craig R33]

you will prob find that due to the car sitting around for so long, all the fluid has drained from the lines, and dried up.

give it another change, and see how you go

good to hear its nearly done...

This might not be the issue, but my Hicas light was on a while back and the steering was really heavy. It turned out to be a loose battery terminal (no bullshit). New terminal and the issue went away.

Check that, but more than likely it won't be that.

But check the power steering fluid and the hose connections.

Last night after work i decided to go to town on my dump pipes with a die grinder. Where the 2 pipes join together i ground out the hole to perfectly match the shape of the smaller pipe, spent about 1 hour on them as they are stainless so had to try and keep the metal cool. It should help to improve exhaust flow a fair bit

On 33's theres a couple of lugs behind there, just pull the bottom out gently until it unclips (you may need a flathead) then lift it upwards. I've never tried doing it on a 34 so it might be different.

[Damo_R34]

id say it wont be much different, ill have a crack shortly

hey guys got around to takin photo of engine

[ryder32]

went and had my car remapped at turbo tune today and i gained 34 rwkw out of it

first run pulled 88.1 rwkw with a blocked fuel filter and fooked fuel pump..so replaced both of them and it pulled 111.2 rwkw

then after the remap it pulled 122.2rwkw..

im pretty happy with it considering the only mods are HD clutch, 2.5" full exhaust system with race cat and K&N panel filter
