Jamming 3rd mid skid especially when the syncros are a bit shifty is hard thing to get the hang of. Might enquire with SARace what it would cost them to change the syncros on 1 - 4 maybe, otherwise deal with it haha. It is a z32 gearbox, might be worth doing. I'd like 1 - 3 straight cut gears :banana:

I was chattin to the bloke who built your car (I'm guessin you bought Tuffy's sileighty yeah?) and he reckons 2nd to 3rd with a Z32 box is a massive jump, like it drops way too many revs and leaves 3rd fked.

Not sure if it'll help in your car as much as mine but I found snapping 3rd mid slide is easiest done just after a transition. Like flick it a bit harder than you think you should then use the momentum of the car to give you a bit more time to slot 3rd properly.

keen as fk for skids on the 24th :D

Bah!!

I've had 2 HTC phones, Touch Dual & HD....both slow and would occasionally hang

Love the iPhone

Theres the problem with the HTCs you've had - they're both Windows. Windows have always been a horrible OS on mobile phones...

You're probably right Vu cause I've had Sony Ericssons (Symbian OS) and they were fast as

Yeah man I bought Tuffy's old Sileighty

Now that you mention it I did notice when I hit 3rd it'd slightly bog down and then once get passed that stage jump straight to 6,000rpm lol

I'll give that a go with what you said, any advice at this stage is good advice. I'll take anything and everything on board.

I should be out on the 24th, Need to organize a tow, tires and I'll probably just leave the smashed exhaust for now lol, might just take it off at the cat useless ugly fpos - but I'm f**ken keen as! Day skids ftw. Do you know if its the same price? $100 + cams license?

      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.

      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.
