goto EAS in airport west

theres no need to drive half across melbourne for a std procedure item

theres done a trillion skylines

There is no need to drive half way across Melb period, wether for a basic tune or a full house build up :P

It's the reason I don't recommend EAS to eastside people; good workshops can be found on both sides of town, just silly to waste money, time and fuel driving across town. Having said that, EAS has a a fair few customers come from the east and also country areas, so each to their own.

try leo's garage in white street highpoint.....right down the end on the left hand side....leo is from chilli and worked for subaru in the world rally team.....ever seen anyone take a WRX gearbox out,apart fit a new main shaft and back in within 1 1/2 hours?If you have that would be him :angry:...leo is not a performance shop for nissan's mitsubishi's ect,his knowledge on subaru's is incredible....But a job like that isnt rocket science so theres no good paying a premium to get it done.....

WOW! iseekool thanks alot, thats really helpful. maybe ill buy those oils to and provide them to whoever i take the car too.

CHEERS THAT'S GREAT INFO.

Also i forgot to mention, when i change gears in my auto the car seems to move or shake forward or backwards a little.

IS DAT A SIGN OF MY GEARBOX SCREWING UP? or just needs new oil? My uncle mentioned something about getting my gearbox flushed and add new oil... is that suppose to make it better?

I have the same thing happening in any auto car, it is normal for an auto, especially if the engine is cold due to the higher revs, once everything is warmed up it is felt much less. How bad is it? Is there a big delay when it happens? Do you notice any drivability problems, rough shifts or mis-shifts?

Changing the trans fluid will not hurt. :P but personally I'd put it as a lower priority for now. Depending on how much you drive - the trans fluid should be good for another 1/2 year - but of course as with anything the sooner you change the better. Don't forget to use Castrol Transmax Z. :)

dr drift in brooklyn??

like has been said, the 100 000 service isnt rocket science, just takes a bit of work. So i reckon ideally you would just want to get a workshop that is relatively close and knows skylines. It will cost you around the 1000 mark id say, When i was living in Albury, i got mine done, i think it worked out to about 1000 from memory.

    • 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.
