What exactly is happening? the fact that you say "some type of spring" makes me think the pedal is going to the floor and not coming back.. if that is the case then you most likely have snapped your clutch fork pivot.

As far as taking the gearbox out, you'll need ramps/stands, a couple of jacks, some reeaaally long extensions and someone to help you. If you have access to a hoist and a gearbox jackstand, it will make life a LOT easier.

Someone else with more time can write up what needs done.

Nah man thats cool i dont need anymore i took it to penrith brake and clutch and they're going to fix it YAY but the clutch with my foot full pressed down the clutch is still half engaging it return's like normal but its hard to change gears and always half engaged so its pretty weird i bled it and they did it to make sure so thats not the problem

i removed the pedalbox and got it welded up where the break in it was the box when i push the pedal it actuates the clutch fork like normal but it doesnt fully disengage

so they said it may be a crack in the clutch fork or a broken clutch spring so ill have to ask them a few more questions to find out when they know what wrong with it

    • 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.
