Yes, i have recently realise, that i'm spending less and less time in my skyline and instead of pulling it apart and selling it as bits i've now have decided to farm it out to towing my jetskis as a gesture of retiring for the old girl. well i've sorted of detune her a little bit so economies can be realise and when the semi slicks runs out, normal road tyres will be refitted. After 7 years of ownership i've have come to a point where a car is and can be TOO fast for normal road use, but it have always brought a grin to my face everytime the pedal hit the floor.

BTW anyone can recommend or knows where i can get a tow bar for an r33 as i've rang around and no ones makes them.

from seeing my father making towbar attachments for cars, I would say that the skylines is not possible because the chassis rail would be hard to bolt onto as the fuel tank takes up alot of the room under there, and also all the kits that people have.

So basically I would suggest getting another car, not too many sport cars have towbars.

No, the skyline eats the RS6 Erin by a huge margin, as for getting another car, my garage is bit crowded and friends are getting impatient with my cars all over there yard.and the skyline would be cheaper to "write off" than one of the other one, prolly use the X5 if i can't get a tow bar made.

    • 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?

    • 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.
