wat about extracors for an RB20?  

anyone know where in sydney i can get them?

coby make ones for rb20 as well as posted earlier by cookm. i found a place in NZ http://www.autopia.co.nz/ that are willing to ship to oz, their price for rb25 extractors was NZ$226 plus freight (pay no gst because its an export). given the exchange rate this is pretty good!

cookm,

dude you are doing a great job of modding your car:D your extractors look mad with the chrome, are they stainless or mild steel and before the chroming what kind of finish did they have? have you looked into any thermal coating/heat wrap to prevent cracking or do they come with some kind of coating from coby? sorry about all the questions, i just want to know all the facts before i pay a nz company money for something i've never seen!

thanks

GREG:

I purchased extractors through Manawatu Mufflers in Palmerston North, they sourced extractors from Auckland somewhere - came in standard red mild steel i was told, supplier recommended chroming them in Hamilton on the way to me, don't have much information sorry, not sure if they are heat treated or not, just followed advice by suppliers ???

Government passed a boy racer law here in NZ, cars aren't allowed mufflers louder than original manufactured, hence my little project :(, it's not illegal yet to cut our CAT's out though :(

Peak Power 87.1 rwkW @ 5886 RPM

Peak Power 116.7 Hp @ 5886 RPM

Peak Torque 487.9 Nm @ 3541 RPM

Am a bit disappointed with the Power, I expected higher.

Have read other guys results, 100-114 rwkW

Any ideas why ?

that torque is massive! is that a typo and its actually meant to be 287.9 Nm? if its for real then maybe the extractors have sacrificed a lot of peak power for a lot of low down torque?

also, i remember reading a thread a while back about how dynos are different or something, maybe this one wasn't calibrated properly or maybe australian dynos are different to new zealand ones (its well known that american dynos read higher than ones over here).

thanks for the info on the extractors, i rang advan imports in sydney today (www.advan.co.nz) and they told me that the extractors are mild steel as u said, not hpc coated and i can get them for AU$350 in a painted finish or AU$430 in chrome. I think this is a bit expensive and i should be able to get a better deal by importing them from Autopia in NZ but they haven't got back to me yet on freight costs so i can't be sure...

If we have a few people here that are interested in these coby extractors from Autopia in NZ (NZ$226 = AU$196) for their RB20/RB25 maybe we could organise some kind of group buy so we can ship them over to australia for a cheaper price per unit? i'm willing to organise this if people are interested so let me know.

cheers

I thought the torque was a bit high, will do a dyno with an indapendent garage to compare results, will reset the ECU, it may make a difference.

    • 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.
