Then it sounds like the problem that I addressed in the first page of this thread, You need to remove the wheel, boss and all and compare the slot in the boss with the standard wheel and there will be a difference. the sensor must be positioned exactly central on the hole in the boss, and using foam and or tape to fatten up the prong on the sensor worked perfectly for me and many others.

Have you tried this??

sorry buddy i have not tried this yet although im not sure what the hicas sensor looks like.

Ive had the wheel off and im not sure what the hicas sensor looks like :P

Fark............ I just spent 20 minutes replying to this in a funny and witty manner with many references to male and female genitalia included and the whole lot was lost when i posted..................... GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I have to cook dinner now and then work on my car.............:crazy:

Any way the attached pic shows the rear view of the standard 33 wheel. the highlited hole is the nice tight girly bit that the hicas dick fits into...... the aftermarket boss has a larger slot and the dick floats around in it too much resulting in the sensor being off center when you are driving in a straight line.......... so fatten the part that fits in the affore mentioned hole using electrical tape to create a tight fit and bob is your uncle.....

failing that i can explain at MAS if you still don't understand, don't be shy not everyone is expected to be proficient at the art of vehicular modification.. ;)

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
