Velo Podium Fixed Buckets!

Going to flog off my race seats as I've got some OEM 300ZX Recaro's coming which are rare as (only one other set I know of in the country!)

They are blue and yellow Velo Podium's. Fibreglass frame, VERY light and VERY stiff, you can pick them up with one finger no hassles. These are brand new, I bought them off a guy with a rally car down south somewhere. They have never been installed in a car or used. One is still in the original packaging. These are fixed back, so no good if you want back seats. They are FIA approved and made in Australia, but now out of date, but ok for street or sprints.

They are quite tight, but well padded, about 50mm wider than a comparable Recaro or Bride. Has very good thigh, shoulder and side support, you wouldn't move in these seats. Also has provision for 5/6 point harnesses. I will try and get acurate measurements of the important bits this weekend, along with pictures.

They come with Sparco sidemount mounts (no sliders). These will not 'just bolt in' to any car. These will require some custom work to fit properly, I believe that rails are available for R32/33.

This is the slightly newer version, looks the same except for the colours.

$700ea or $1200 the pair (negotiable within reason). Won't seperate unless I have a buyer for the other one. These are over $1200ea new and that's without the Sparco mounts!

I would prefer not to post them, when I got them up from Vic it cost around $180. If you really want them I will probably be able to organise something.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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?

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
