  • 5 weeks later...

My new Series II 350GT gets a view of the ocean (yes - that over-exposed bit. Hey, it's with an iPhone!) near the QLD/NSW border. Picked up the car from Nagoya Motors in Sydney and took it for a return drive to the Gold Coast. Figured it was the best way to clear the cob-webs... :)

..what do you think? been getting lots of looks this week.

i reckon some 20s, lowering springs, black plates and de-badging wouldn't go astray.

I Keep saying it here.. Black is sex on wheels in the Vs. !!. Congrats, and happy motoring .

Hey Elie... I am actually not too sure what is the name of the colour. I know the code is B30 and Dave (Spong) was telling me it's call lakeshore blue in the US. :( Do we have the same colour? Somehow think this is a slightly more rare colour as I haven't seen many... which is good! ;)

Yep same colour. Only seen three others in Syd in three years so far. (must be a few more by now). & People still tell me how nice the colour is. What are you rims..aint seen them before ? is she Manual or Auto ? I was lucky & got the fact 19in, Impul lip spoiler & cumputer chip, and Fujitsubu exhaust. Another shot in the light highlights the differing shades. Good on ya son !

Hey Elie,

I actually haven't seen a single one with the same colour here in Auckland since I started looking for a v35 coupe. Only saw some sedans before in that colour. Normally the v35 coupes here are silver, black or white. I think the colour is awesome!

Mine's an auto. Pretty much stock in terms of the body and exhaust. The japanese owner is however nice enough to add in a pair of Alpine tweeters for the stereo and the best thing is the rim. It's a set of ProDrive forged rims!

Certainly enjoying my car now!

Where did you get projectors from? I assume USA - in which case they are totally illegal as they will be biased toward oncoming traffic, whereas Jap headlights are biased toward the footpath.

If not, where from and how much? :P

    • 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
