nah theres a certain amount of sentimental value attached to cars that isnt replaceable ..... plus insurance doesnt cover half the stuff you do to it.

Im not saying i love my car more than my pet ..... if my cat was endanger and so was my car .... i would go save the cat but i do have an emotional attachment to my car.

depends how its viewed ... i'm with nizmo ... i have always hated animals ... and i will never ever have any pets whatsoever ... they are just high maintenance and u dont' really get anything back for all the time and money u spend with them ... imho ... same goes for cars ... so its all the same really ... its all just materialistic things ... in my view anyways ..

i dont hate animals ;) ive got a cat .... concidentally she's as black as my car and likes to sleep on it.

But yeah i can just liken the relationship i have with my car as i do with my cat ..... i care about as much about my car as i do my cat.

Anyway enough talk about pussiies :D

dont look at it so much as losing a car. as much as if you had to take $80,000 of your hard earned (assuming no dealers about) and then you had to lose it. that like losing 2 years employment for alot of people, imagine trying to live off nothing for 2 years.

I was down at customs(airport) today getting stung for duty/gst on parts i ordered and had time to read their little inhouse customs magazine.It had a little section in the back where they boast about their monthly scores such as 428gr of cannibis,12 dehydrated bananas etc etc.

Anyway,one of the things listed in the fraud section was auto passenger vehicle/parts.Something to do with the papers a bit bogus and the items confiscated.....?

    • 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
