bit of an update, After sydney ADGP round i was left with a fair bit of damage suspension wise and the turbo also is on the way out. what a bummer cause during all this i was in the process of buying a new gearbox since i had sold the Jerico 4 speed Nascar box. I ran that for ADGP but then ripped it out as soon as i got home.

I now have bought one of these babies!

TTI 4 speed straight cut dog engagement sequential! flat shifts come at me!

Now onto the suspension damage... i managed to break a fair bit of stuff during a wheel on wheel contact with Rob Whyte

managed to break the knuckle in 3 pieces along with the coilover and the rim. So i need a new set of knuckles. Have decided that i will probably go back to a cut and shut knuckle and take spares with me as its much simplier from a parts replacability point of view.

turbo is also noisy :(

so i'll prob steer clear of the Garretts since they have not been too relable for me, will prob go with a Kando t67 25g!

this is how car sits atm

Oh and i also did G1 few weeks ago. and i sucked, mainly cause i was in the Garage7 missile which is a battle car not a competition car and mallala just doesnt allow for low powered cars to keep up. that didnt stop me from doing some backies and putting on a show! Took my sponsor/tuner/mate Declan co-owner of garage7 for a drive and he loved it. that was enough for me to make the day worth it haha

Richard from 1110 engineering made me up a Clutch activation set up in the form os nissan fork, carrier and ball. Used all new parts, bit of engineering went into making this , whole new input shaft cover had to be made with a shaft to suit the carrier.

    • 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
