this car did not have one sctatch or dnet on it. the other reason why i also jumped out there in the hail like a crazy person is because i only have 3rd party insurance on it and if it ended up like our three other cars "write offs" next to it, it would of been even more damage to fix. and more damage means more $$$. luckaly i have alot of pannel beaters and spray painters in the family. but wat pisses me off even more is that it just came out of the workshop at hills motorsports and spent a few $$$ on friday with all my new bits on there and i cant even enjoy it properly.

mabye its time for comprehensive insurance???

I was one of the lucky ones in 1 respect, I live in St Marys and got nothing but rain and wind... But on the other hand I work in real estate as a property manager and have had to deal with the 60+ properties that have been severely damaged, I really feel for those guys and the owners! :bunny:

sorry to hear everyone...

yea luckily my car is still in storage at the mechanics waiting to get fixed. my parents alfa got raped.. smashed windscreen, dented roof, bonnet, guards etc. it was pretty bad as im in the castle hill area where also the power was out for like 4-5 hours.

I'm in Colyton/St Clair area and the stones were only small-ish but hard enough that they dented the shit outta my roof and the pillar between the roof and top of the doors... weird that one side of the place got hit and the other was basically untouched.

Im guessing they couldnt provide a licence/documentation to prove that they are accredited workers?

There was a warning on the radio about tradespeople quoting and then receiving deposits for the the work, then pissing off with the deposit!

most off the houses in my street have broken glass..the obrien glass guy has been to heaps of houses on my street

anyone got a CF bonnet for fit r33 gts-t S1?

It's been awhile but last time I was at Unique Autosports they had one. I'm pretty sure Powerplay can get an awesome Eastbear one in too (pricey, but worth the money, and definitely hail proof ;)...I should know).

my car fuct!!!!....roof has heaps of dents and bonnet is a write off, so im gonna get a carbon bonnet

sux to be me.....i was working and the hail car out of nowhere

first thing i did was grab cardboard from the rubbish bin and then ran and put it over my roof...i had to hold it on my car

now my body is covered in massive bruises...and one massive hail stone hit me in the neck and i cant turn my neck

Talk about throwing yourself in front of the one you love.

:dry:

When you have A pillar and roof damage the car is write off as from then on it has a weakened structure and wont be legal for road use, its also void for insurance.

I.e it will snap in half in a head on and squish ur head off.

    • 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.
