I have 2 aussie spec gaurds on the front of my DR, the only difference I found with them was the holes for the badge and the holes for the pod of the DR body add ons, which was as easy to change as drilling 3 small holes.

Never understood why people pay so much for DR gaurds, mine cost $20 each for mint ones from the wreckers

Slightly hard from WA

Wish we still had our PickAParts in WA, but the land value in Welshpool where the big one was would be worth probably 1.5 million now :banana:

That's an interesting call, because the area Dapto is on would be worth 10million today, easy.

Getting a guard in mint condition isn't the issue, the issue would be getting it to WA in same condition. It could be insured but that just gets your money back, doesn't get the guard you need.

Wouldn't it be easier getting it through your local Nissan dealer? They could order it through the FAST system, ex Japan and you would be assured of it's condition when you picked it up?

Cheers, D

Steve, Standard guards are fairly easy to come by, but your mint order is the hard part. To ship to WA from Sydney would be expensive too. If there was some small blemishes you would have to get the beater to fix it before painting.

Have you tried contacting Carolyn Kruger (Cazz) for a price on a new guard, she says she can get new bits at good prices.

Was hoping for something just straight with the correct indicator. I nearly bought interstate twice but both had the wrong indicator.

I am also considering sucking it up and getting the Jenesis FRP gaurds, but thats a last resort.

    • 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.
