Tilbrooks have closed down in the past

They then reopened and looks like they are now shutting down again?

Yeh i change my jocks quite often also........... Oh hang on wrong thread..... :thumbsup::)

Nah seriously tho they have been around for quite some time, must be a solid reason for them to be closing, never actually took my car there as i use Boosties, but good luck to Mark and whatever he decides to do!!

IT'S OFFICIAL TILBROOKS IS CLOSED AT ELM ST AND RELOCATING TO ANOTHER LOCATION AS OF 31/07/08

I have spoken to Mark today and he asked me to say;

I would like to thank all those that have supported me over the years I really appreciated I have enjoyed working on your cars it and loyalty means alot to me.

I would like to wish everyone good luck in the future.

I will be doing Custom work and Building Race cars from another location, as I have found employing people to to work at my work shop has not been benificial for me or my customers so that is why i have made this decision to lease out my premises and relocate to personaly do the work for my customers myself with the best contractors and same great suppliers, I will still be listed in the yellow pages, Thankyou once again!

But on a better note Chad and I have nothing to worry about as Chad said befor we are still having Mark work on our cars :D

    • 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.
