Rims over 18", especially when they have those 'elastic band' tyres. Leave that to the 'pimped up' SUV's.

Local rims such as Incubus. Fcuking disgusting, even on Commodores they look SO bad. I'd pay to NOT use them. :)

Rims with kerb rash.

De-spoilered 33's; leave the 'smoothed' look to Mexicans.

I think "proportional" is the word. Everyone's got their own taste. However, don't over do it.

Personally, I honestly feel Skylines need their rear wings - they look weir without them.

A few badges and stickers here and there aren't too bad - but full blown graphics - I'm against that!

I guess each to their own.

I absolutely hate the look for R33's. Honestly, its like Nissan couldn't choose if they wanted to make it a sports cars or a family car. Dont take it personal you R33 owners...

I also hate the front bumper bar on R32 gts-t's. They are too caved in...

stock height with shitty body kit so the distance between the tire and wheel arch (guard) is at leased 5 to 6 inches lol, those old black spoke with electric red rim wheels, shopping list of audio brands on the back window. all that with the maccas toy hanging off the back.

Yeah i don't really see anythign wrong with it. Now with a rear diffuser it looks gorgeous. If i had any lower rear bar the diffuser would be scraping on the road lol.

To wheels are a bit 'blingy'.

i said the rear bar because, most of the times i c a r33 skyline, it looks so nice with low front bumper, side skirts but when you look at it from the side the Rear bumper doesnt blend. it looks too high. Nissan should have given rear Pods standard on all 33's.

Try lookin at a skyline wt a factory Bodykit from an angle. maybe u will see what i mean.

My mates r33 with rear pods looks very nice and evn blends with the factory kit.

Oh ok i see where you are coming from. Yeah i hate when people have a front bumper the size of a snow plow 1mm from the ground and than the rest of the car factory height with big gaps in the arches.

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

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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
