Aaron i'm curious about the output at the wheels aswell, meant to be 270kw and 500nm of torque standard, to put it in perspective a Ferrari 360 modena f1 is meant to be 297kw and 394nm of torque. (i'm hanging out for sau dyno day)

Still no match for the R35 gtr with its electronics. But a GTR doesn't sound like this.

Once I figure out if they use ceramic turbos or not, then I can figure out how to raise the boost level lol ( i wonder if there is a ecu tune for it?), throw in a better breathing exhaust, see if i can squeeze a bigger intercooler into it lol.

And Nick, the convo might go like that, only change is i bought the car on the monday and not the weekend lol

hahah chris, why not.

An your right dave, that type of money would make my r33 faster than anything... But it wouldn't be the same, and it definately wouldn't be very street friendly, trust me i already thought of that, and i thought of R34 gtr aswell, but nothing really sounds like this, nor is it this easy to drive fast, although r35 gtr is faster and easier to drive, but its alittle over double the price, no hassel with the cops, insurance, (parts may be alittle pricey and harder to get).

Look at the youtube link and if you have subs on your pc you can hear it rumble, then you get the turbo's and bovs doing there thing.... still my crappy phone microphone cannot capture the sound of it.

    • 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? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • 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.
