the series 2 grill will not fit on a series one. it does not fit the lights.

does that mean the the series 2 front bumper wont fit on?

im not sure which model i have....i kno the series 1 has the smaller spoiler the more round one, ive got the taller GTR looking one but doesnt stick out the gtr one, and my "SKYLINE" logo is the same colour as my body colour not the clear one which the series 1 has, but i only have a driver side air bag not a passenger one that it states the series 2 has

its a 95

sounds like s1.5 and in that case fairly sure there is cutting involved for the bumper/grill to fit the diffrent shaped headlights cant remeber exactly what the diffrence is but yeah. thats why after market companies have front bars for s1 and s2.

good luck mate, has been done so dont let a bit of cutting stop you.

no probs mate, fairenough if its your pride and joy and you dont wanna accidently stuff up then yeah work shop could do it easy.

they will b able to find out what they gotta cut just by doing a quick test fit, i think its been put on the forums what you actually gotta cut but i just cant find it at the moment.

good luck mate, post pics when you get it done, the s1.5 is my preffrence any way bro they look sweet.

    • 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
