i just changed my r33 airbag wheel to a sports wheel. the wiring i have from the bosskit only has one bit that goes to the horn button and another bit hanging off it that looks to be a fuse but i cant see anywhere to earth the other bit of the horn to. would the fuse bit be the earth now or what? i didnt get another bit of wire to put on the other horn terminal on the horn pad like i thought you usually use to earth like commodores and stuff. any info on this mates?

also i needed to remove the fuse from the fuse box from the horn coz my old horn was sticking on and i dont have a fuse box cover so i dont know where to put a horn fuse and what voltage it is. can someone scan up there fuse box lid or tell me what one to put in and which slot to put it in please

LOL :yucky:

mate... alot of electrical items need earthing.. houses for example.. it's not just commodores.. now i'm not sure if it's the same sorta kit (ours was hooked up to a hilux).. but i think the boss kits have their own ground on it.. so that extra wire can just be tucked away down the middle of the boss kit..

i was using the commodore as an example not implying it was the only car thet needs to be grounded.

there is no spare wire to leave hanging. there is one plug from the car which plugs into the wiring for the bosskit that goes to one spade bit on the horn button. there is another wire handing off the side of the new plug which goes to the horn button. would that be the ground now and i just leave the other spade bit on the horn button with nothing connected?

id test it but i dont have a fuse connected to the horn in the fuse box so i dunno if its right

    • 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
