depending on how much has been taken out i hear its a pain in the ass.

mine had the power steering lines to it pulled aswell and when i went to nisswreck they said id be looking at 1k in parts alone

if its for a defect engineers report for hicas lock bar was 1400 which is the option i took as recommened by the nice guy at nisswreck. fd up but its good to say to the cop pulling you over "yeah its all legit i got a e report in there if you wanna read it" the usual reply is free to go sir as they cant be fd reading it

I heard it weighs around 25kg all up so I thought it may be alil expensive.

If the car defected is the car in your profile, an R34, you should be ok as if I recall correctly the 34's and 33's share the same HICAS system, electic not hydraulic like the 32's. Should just be as simple as finding someone with a spare HICAS rack and swapping it in. Keep in mind you're probably gonna need a wheel alignment after all the stuff is switched back too!

i was in the exact same situation, needed to go through regency and had a lock bar in, lucky i had a HICAS system sitting round the place, but im sure ud be able to find someone whos got one laying around, most people get rid of the things as soon as they can.

btw, what i did was lock the system up with washers, it meant i didnt have to reconnect the lines and get it functioning again.

    • 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.
    • 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
