Hey people...

Just picked up the new ride last night and quickly took a shite picture with the phone before the light had completely gone.

It's no gtr, but at least I'm back into the turbo 4x4 arena!

Maybe it can be the SAUWA S&R vehicle!!!

Will post up some better quality pics after a wash and with some decent light.

Pardon the height... Brad will be attending to that issue shortly.

Damn thats nice.. that turbo version?

Yeah it's the top notch turbo ghia so it has all the fruit

hey that looks good i used to work for ford and drove a few Territory turbos and they hammer pretty hard

Yeah I have already spoken to a performance shop in Midland that have a name for building hypo FPV's and Typhoons, etc... they say with $3.5-4k this thing will do 12sec 1/4's!!!

yep

new turbo (gt3540 or bigger - i think the standard is a gt30)

not sure on the intercooler

3" turbo back zorst

ecu reflash (which alone nets about 25-30rwkw if not more depending on mods)

u dont want to make it noisey though? poor donna would get a headache from the exhaust drone when going to get milk n bread from the shops.

I't wont be that noisey!!! There is always the stereo to drown out the drone... trust me there won't be outlandish mods happening to this thing.

      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.

      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.
