Welcome to the family. So which model are you now the proud owner of ?

A Black R33 GTS-T. Like i said in the intrductory post, I technically live in NSW, just over the border. But I work (and play :P ) on the Gold Coast. Was previously driving a Hyundai Excel - first drive in the Skyline i thought i was piloting a rocket ship in comparison.

I'm not a big car person... and havn't ever seen a car and though "I want that". But the Skylines were always the one exception. So i figured why not join in on the community side of things too. Looking forward to joining the club in the future also.

I would probably suggest a cruise to start with as a meet and greet, check out each others rides, etc.

then there would be no awkwardness at a dinner table when not knowing anyone :D

Hi QWK-GTR

Welcome to the coast. A cruise/ meet would be great. let me know when u plan on one & i'll try to make due to me doing shift work. Been hanging out for a cruise since the big one in 07 (SCCo7).

Cheers :P

I think that if you guys give enough notice and pick a place with good variety of food (Noel only eats steak...) you could get a few of us Brisbanites to come down too. I know I want to take my 'line for a spin once I get it back.

Yeah i agree. However I think we will lose afew interests, as alot of people are abit tight when it comes dinner nights and also abit shy to attened. Whereas an open area for a meet and greet, they can leave when ever they wish.

Thats why a combination of the 2 is fantastic. An Open area for meet and greet/chating, then a cruise somewhere. Then head to dinner, those who dont wana come canhead off. Makes sense to me :S

Lets make it for Friday 14th....

Most people have things planned for a week night or prefer not to go out, so better idea would be for a Friday night.

I'll update 1st post soon once those who agree with Friday night to be good for them!

    • 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.
