I hate to admit it, but if you see the white 33 with black duct tape on the front spoiler ... yeah ... that's me ... hahaha <hides the shame>

I hear good things about duct tape dont be ashamed...couldnt you find any white tape to make it blend in tho? :(

I'll keep an eye out for you, but my car is getting to know the garage better for a while, while i've got a company falcadore to use for a bit.

So now driving my R34 on the weekends feels like driving a supercar after driving the boat / falcadore all week lol

Lol most probably, I'm over that way all the time, your car actually does seem pretty damn familier, as I tend to check out LED tail lights more then the norm =P.

Have just under 4.5k coming towards me in the coming weeks, anyone know of a good brissie place to get a new front spoiler? Haha, I was thinking about hitting up AutoJap but I have a feeling I would get ripped-the-f**k-off. They just seem that way to me =P, sorry to anyone that works there, hahaha.

You want a genuine one? "Nismo style" front bars for a 33 go for a reasonable price on just jap, take a look ay. Im looking for a genuine replacement for the bottom part of my front bar, too many scuffs from my stupid raised garage entarnce :P

Reviving this thread, I'm on the Redcliffe Penninsula, Keen to take out the Ceffy and meet the fellow like minded locals. It's sitting in the garage gathering dust eager for me to earn more cash for it to eat :sick:

There are a few more of us up around mango hill, redcliffe area. Tried to organise something a while ago but every place suggested was bagged!

So where do you guys think? There is a big carpark at baskin's aspley, or somewhere down at redcliffe?

LOL... Where's Asply? wait i'll google it..

Aspley is about ten minutes north-west from banyo.

Donna - once my car is registered I'll be up for a north side meet or two. Aspley Baskins isn't a bad idea. There's also Nandos at Carseldine now, and they have a big carpark. Can also keep an eye on the cars there.

I'll think about where else northside would be good. Could even do a Sandgate fish and chips night :banana: it'd look pretty cool with all the skylines parked along the waterfront :)

      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.

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
