Wow.. you guys are so narrow minded. "I don't like sexspec, its shit". Ever heard of tolerance. They go for comfort over performance, so what! Personally i wouldn't do it to my car but I can certainly appreciate the work that has gone into it. As someone has already stated "We are all modifiers".

If we want to keep the car scene in Canberra alive we really need to include everyone. Otherwise there wouldnt be enough people to support events like this. If people keep talking like they are in this thread then others will feel excluded and not welcome (as I have felt in the past) so they wont come, and the events will die off. Its not even an SAU event anyway.

I would also like to point out that JDM means "Japanese Domestic Market" ie any japanese car.. not just drift/tuner. My dads Tarago is JDM for gods sake

*Like*

Agree with all of the above! It comes down to personal preference and like I said, I don't mind it.. I like to see how creative people can get with their cars in ALL different ways, it's just good to see people into the modified scene (no matter what types of mods they are)

Only a couple of days away, do we have any indication on numbers, and would all that are coming like to be parked together?

Dyno will be running form 9am, and will run throughout the day, it stopped at about 5pm last year.

We hope everyone that comes along has good day, because the day was desined to be alot of fun no matter what your taste are.

everyones defenition of JDM is different, in the long and the short it is a Japanesse car show. hope to see you all there, you might catch a glimpse of our own skyline project car

From the thread, I estimated this list:

Attending

DriftGTS

Shell

Verms?

Melly (so does this mean Zane as well, then Reece might come)

Maybe

MAG86 (after 12)

whytry (after 12)

Zebra (try and make it down)

Seems like there was more discussion QSR than anything else (those guys must be popular). I can send a email to Ultimate Tunes with numbers later today.

Zane won't be there. Reece is racing at wakefield. Nerm may possibly come for a bit? I will only be there for a bit in the morning (Aiming to awake in time)... Than need to drive to Syd for Texi on Sunday woooot!

JDM Fest is now only 2 sleeps away, and despite the threat of rain it is looking good, quite a number of cars are looking to be around for the day, and some rumors of the dyno having hold down some high powered cars, things are looking great.

The dyno will be running from 9:00am. drinks and food will be availiable on the day, with the BBQ cracking form the early hours.

Despite the difference in tastes, we will strive to make it a great day for all. Hope to see you all on saturday.

Im so keen to go and have a look around as im new and check out how people have modified their cars and get more ideas, but after reading all this that’s up here. Im going to hide my car in my garage because people will be laughing at me if I’ll bring my car out that day.

Dont do that, it will be a good day out, bring the car out, as everyone has there own tastes, you may not like the next guys car and so on, its a day out.

Yeah you are right.

I will bring out and hopefully some of the nice people may give me advice on how to build it up and where to go for parts and etc etc.

Thank you for giving me the courage and the strength.

    • 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
