Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Would be fair keen. Gotta sort out my wack clutch issues though: went out satdy night, paid my $125 (plus about $70 of fuel, plus the rest on parts to upgrade what was shit last time) only to steam into turn 7 for the first time and have my clutch pedal stay on the firewall :(

If I can sort my shit out I'll be at the next prac on the 5th ;)

BTW Dave, you still gotta let a certain someone get your rig sideways for some artsy pics yeah... :)

im the same, if i dent or brake shit on the 100 ive got a solid weight for shit to get freighted from japland :)

this being said, its drift school, not prac. your not expected to handbrake it into turn one. you go at your own pace and learn the basics of good car controll.

shagged piston and bent valves.

ripping it out next weekend and selling it in parts then putting that cash towards my new and better motor ;)

shiiiiiit another motor? dude thats sucks

So you did end up getting a 100 Rhys? fking sick man ;)

don't bother with the Torsen shite if you wanna slide it, if you're definately keen then go straight for a mech LSD, and find some 4.3 diff gears from an A70 supra while you're at it. One thing I never did to mine :( would've made SO much difference.

You don't need a kit to get it sideways Dave :)

Nice, that was a good buy for the cash he was asking, how much better than Nissans are they ;)

LSD depends on your driving style, but being a big car something smooth to lock like a TRD one would probably be easiest to learn with.

some guy on jzx100.com was looking into aftermarket diff bushes developed in Aus last time I checked. That was a while ago so you may have a local option by now.

no. but i do want it looking more or less complete in said photos.

This is a fair point you raise, good sir

LOL it's a 100 man, get used to that :)

I'd track down somewhere in JP where you can get one then talk to Streeter about getting it here. Bought a few grand worth of shit through him for my 100 ;)

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      By Gantai · Posted

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
