i really love my r33,

its fast good response, but it just seems to be crap in the top end around 5000rpm... just flatens out, i think the power curve would look like this

_

thats what it feels like, even on 14psi, i hit max boost quickly and it just stops pulling, compared with my old cordia whitch seemed to have a long lasting pull all the way to redline,

is this a normal thing?

also i installed an air/fuel meter (tomei) and its saying @ idle upwards of 16:1 afr on boost it drops to 14:1 and wont go down from there... then off boost climbs back up, i reset my ecu and it stayed in 14.1:1 - 15.5:1 afr. but slowly its climbing back up.. im gonna dyno it to see if its right... what can be the causes????

15:1 afm while driving on boost??

Mate your engine will be ***ed if it isent already running that lean.

And you are running 14psi through the stock cooler and you live in NT??? r u crazy?? the intake air temp much be sky high and apart of what is causing your lean out. Jap cars aint designed to run in such hot conditions like in NT. Get yourself a big fmic or drop the boost down to about 10psi max in that heat and get it checked out or you are gonna have a blown engine very soon.

    • 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
