maybe throw up a rough price for general service (oil/filter/plugs), then maybe a diff oil/trans oil change, to things like links/bushes/suspension just to give people an idea. Seems like timing belts are your thing :D, rough price to get one changed? maybe even turbo swaps/manifold swaps, not everyone needs work right now, but if something where to come up then its always a good reference.

will keep you in mind, if im unable to do it myself :ban:

ok then .

quotes.

timing belts full kits inc,water pump,bearings,fresh coolant,belt,seals,checkover car,from 700$.

service oil and checkover car from 65 inc mineral oil and filter.

direct bolt on turbos for rb's from 250$

full service inc,gearbox,check diff,,engine,brake,and complete check pver from 140$inc parts and labour .

really if you can find better on these prices i would say go for it as they are not much for labour.

cheers,

ps. had plenty of happy customers ,

hope every one is happy with the service as i am pretty sure that they are.

Just to give John another :thumbsup: - he did the water pump, cam belt, tensioner, idler, air/powersteer/alternator belts on my 32 GTR. He did great work and gave me a good price. It was also cool to be able to hang around and chat about a few other aspects of the car. Definitely recommended.

i don't know john so i can't say if he's good or not... he sounds decent

one thing that will be a worry is that he doesn't have public liability (???)

this could be an issue if you get a dickhead customer who screams 'you broke my car!'

i need an auto electrician... i want a relay or solenoid installed in my car as it has hot start problems?

can you do this? i prefer not to replace the starter as it's ok otherwise

just engine with no box or complete car ,

as i have to do this in my driveway and it is hard with no hoist it would not be worth it as you would be able to get any shop with even a bit of gtr knowledge would probably be able to do it cheaper.unless its just engine it would not be woth it for me or you to do it.

sorry but im just laying it out straight.

cheers

what do you mean hot start probs. as in the car wont start again once its warmed up?

if this is the case its prob a faulty starter relay in that case just needs a replacement with a new one if thats not it i would need to have a look at it and yeah i can probably fix it !

ps. its good to see someone look from the mechanics p.o.v for once on the liability factor as that stuff does happen but i am not stupid and if something goes wrong thats my fault i warrant all the work i do.

cheers

    • 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.
