Wow! R34 V-Spec!!!! Did it have Canberra plates???

mickGTR, saw you filling up at Phillip servo about a week ago before New Years. What kind of Octane booster were you running in? It didn't look like the Wynn's stuff. Man your car is sooo sweet! Also spotted, a nice Burgundy R33 GTST going along Sulwood yesterday, got my first thumbs up!

Saw a nice silver GTSt down at Tuggers McDonalds tonight.

Spotted this again down at the Hyperdome carpark at about 8:50 this morning. Its silver, looks lowered on stock wheels with a GTR wing I think (didnt have a close look, but its either GTR wing or series 2 wing).

yeah i was down the south coast in Tathra on new years, a fair few people from Canberra there. only saw 2 other skylines, and only for a second. a black 32 and a gun-grey 33 like mine. i was a bit trashed and yelled out to the guy "hey i got one too!" the locals loved the car though, i met a heap of good blokes because i was just sitting around my car with my mates hitting the piss. they parked me in though, which was good.

Besides spotting a white ?GTR near Glenloch yesterday afternoon -

Does anybody know what was happening on Parkes Way near Anzac Parade roundabout about 5pm yesterday?

About four cop cars plus the pursuit car - stopped -

one lane closed down and cops EVERYWHERE -

did not want to rubberneck so couldn't see what was happening......

MickGTR, hows it goin mate - Yeah i was not in my Skyline at the time I saw you @ BP Phillip, was with my gf as we were pulling away - So i would have felt like a nugget just coming up and saying hello. But yeah the octane booster sounds very interesting. Hahaha, i've just tried Wynn's actually and it runs pretty well but i am keen to try other boosters. Will definately come up if i c you out and about. There needs to be a cruise soon!!!! On the spotted note: Was on my way to fyshwick this morning and pulled in behind a nice sounding Grey R33 who turned onto the Monaro HWY and turned off on the Queanbeyan exit.

Nulon Pro Strength Octane Booster (do NOT use the octane boost and clean... it stuffs the spark plugs damn quickly) is the only stuff I use, and the only stuff my car will run on at the moment (it refuses to drive decently on anything besides optimax/ultimate and nulon boost). Its about $18 a bottle from Supercheap and Autobarn (some Mobil's have it as well), and it works wonders :(

The one I was thinking of (a silver series 2 like mine) is actaully owned by the guy who works there (Chris?), so it would not have been taken for any test drives.

    • 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
