lol. figured with the amount of genuine shit id thrown at it recently, id continue the trend. :D

not a bad price, was 30 odd beans for 3 litres of concentrate, and 10 bucks for 10 litres of demineralised water, so yeah, works out the same price as *insert name* coolant, just has a nissan badge on it. :D

im off overseas for a month in about 2 hours, is there anyone who thinks there up to my level of annoyingness to carry on my duties for said period?

duties entail:

- laughing at ruby.... alot.

- gettin talbo upset (easy task, altho he tends to try ignore. a pro knows ways around this)

- pushing luck with mods

if you achieve greater than a 20% warning during my time away then you can apply for a full time position.

kthxbaiiiiiiiii

ohhh P.S

in regard to payment, you go into the draw to win the internet. for proof of how awsome this prize is please refer to attached picture:

Ok, just had a weird thing happen with the 33.

Hasn't been driven for over a week, so i take it for a quick spin around the block. Get home and can smell burning rubber, popped the bonnet and the power steering belt has decided to walk off the pulley by one rib, but only on the pump pulley?

Belt is not over loose (possibly a little loose, no adjustment left, time for new shorter belt!)

Going to check harmonic balancer bolt, just to be on the safe side.

Hey Mitch, fork out $1200 for a lawyer like what I did. Then fork out $400 in court fee's and then another $300 in fines.

Even then, there's no guarantee you'll get off the fine.

if i had that kind of cash id be using it to get my car working man :)

That is weird. I'd take the option of a newer (correct size) belt.

Yeah just checked crank center bolt and thats tight. Belt was a 3pk855, reckon i'll go the 845. Just a bastard of a job getting to the tensioner nut though!

Well, I got to check out the 33 up on a hoist today and its very respectable underneath.

Got the Stagea booked into MV Automatics to have the solenoids replaced ... $630 :P

Also lined up a GTR box for the Stagea for the manual conversion later this year. Time to shop for the other bits :)

Try doing it in an RB S13 :) There is literally like 2cm between the harmonic balancer and the rad in my car (doesn't help that i have a fking huge rad in it :P)

so, this was an interesting day

get my rego renewal for the patrol. tells me to ring them up as there's problems

ring them up

"oh, your car is defected"

"no its not"

"yes it is, 17th march it got done"

"riiiight........i got that cleared"

rang sturt. they punched it into the system and voila..........im still flagged as defected. Said i came in and got it cleared a few days after, but ive since (read: a month ago) ripped up the slip as i thought id never need it again. They just rang me (mid me typing this post) to tell me in the last 3 and a bit hours of checking the till receipts, they found my receipt and have put the defect thru as cleared in the system (finally)

what a lol

    • 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
