Totally depends on

1. What is broken

2. What you want

If you just want a normal rebuild it will be cheap.

But a hi-flow depends...

Do you want a ball bearing centre? They are expensive, but worth it IMO for the spool gains the offer. ($1500-$1800)

You can go journal bearing which is cheaper, however the trade off is spool. ($600-$1200)

ATP are on Princes HWY just near Chaddy. I've seen first hand some of the stuff coming out of there with regards to EVO's and its simply amazing.

ATP also have the fastest R33 GTS-t for years (OBEHVE).

There is also Eastern Turbochargers in Baysie, not sure what standard of development they are upto though.

I think there is another out east... the name escapes me at the moment though

There are plenty of others interstate and west side of Melb. Freight isn't a drama. GCG hi-flows are the best for RB25 hi-flows IMO, but they are Syd.

The best place i found is rotomaster http://www.rotomaster.com.au, although they not in the SE they are worth the trip. They are friendly and do an awesome job. In my situation they were the cheapest because they are an authorized garrett distributor so they get cheaper prices and parts other workshops cant get.

    • 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.
