An adjustable upper control arm or a set of offset replacement bushes that can be installed in the stock arm.

Whiteline, Nolathane and Noltec all offer the bushes.

There's a group buy on the Noltec adjustable upper arm replacements through Sydneykid atm

Or you can get turn buckle style adjustable arms.

no idea where you're getting this crap about cutting strut mounts and i don't even know what a camber plate is, but that is bullshit and forget it

as old matey said, there is adjustable bushes or you can get adjustable arms

i'm guess you're talking about cutting the top off the strut so you can put s13 style camber tops on top of the shock?

R32 and all skyline suspension do not rely on the top of the shock to adjust camber.

maybe you should talk to a mechanic that has a clue, cause no offence but you sound like you know nothing about the car and i'd hate to see you post a thread saying "i've taken an oxy torch to my strut tower, what do i do?"

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
