Hi everyone,

So as the title states.

When i opened my boot the other day where the spare tyre is usually kept ( i dont have one ) It was filled with water!!

It happens when it rains, Has anyone had this problem?

Or know how/ or who would fix these things?

Also, Whilst i am driving the glass windows in my doors ( 2 door ) Make alot of noise when they are down, Like they are lose, and you can hear it rattling bad. I'v had a look and cant see what it would be, i'v made sure everything is tight.

Anyone know?

Thanks alot! :D

Mine did that as well. All i did to fix it is make sure the channel that the water is meant to go through behind the tail lights is free from debri. I had leaves and everything in there and was over flowing into boot. Once that was removed i dont get a wet boot anymore.

Yeah mine has no leaves. Hmmm

probably coming in around the tail light. you will probably find that your tail lights also have water in them. i had a similar problem. pulled the tail lights off, resealed them and put them back in and bob's your aunty, no more water in the boot.

also about the windows rattling around when down..

i had to take the entire trim off my driver and passenger doors - used bits of rubber (similar to rubber washers you'd put around taps etc but thicker) i sorta just jammed it into places where the window was rattling against the door (just make sure your not putting rubber in parts that prevent the window going up and down, otherwise you run the risk of it jamming and breaking the glass)

    • 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.
