Well said Craig, f##ks me why people want to keep re-inventing the wheel...

Why believe anyone who's done EXACTLY what you're gonna do? What would they know anyway?

didnt someone re invent the wheel?

to make it BALL BEARING! Thats what i did :) :)

Just seems to be a contingent that keep going "blah blah from such and such, says blah, so why would a dump pipe do anything?"

There's a crapload of evidence that says a dump pipe is seven shades of awesome; so why argue, just benefit from the research & investment of others. Never once seen a dump pipe on a factory car that couldn't be improved on.

sure thing!! at the rate we're going now i am going to make more than enough.. i am not sure we will do this again, so i will have some spares for a few latecomers, i've also noticed in the last 5 months a bit influx of volvo owners so we'll try cater for them too.

picking up flange today.. so we're getting closer to starting!

If it is anything like the beastly unit he made for me or the even larger (!!!!) dump pipe he put on his own M35, you will certainly notice quite a difference :P

He said its bigger its virtually a 3.5" from the mouth of the weird looking flange, to 3" connecting to the rest of the exhaust..

what do you think I should notice?

1. Definitely the response from the turbo. With little to no restriction on the exhaust side, it will come on boost harder and earlier.

2. More power throughout the rev range as well although it will be more noticeable in the low and mid revs.

Only down side (if you can call it that) is that you may have a little trouble with your turbo getting enough air from the intake... I know I did.

Maybe hit him up for a suction pipe as well while you are there on Saturday.

I'm pretty sure thats about the same size we've used before.

So, another week has passed. How is everything progressing? I know everyone's busy and it's only going to get busier as we get closer to Christmas.

Do you think an ETA of late this month is acheivable? (Can you tell I'm keen to get mine...? :) )

Cheers

however my friend who will be doing all the fab is very busy when hes not working his 9-5.. after work hes usually found working away on his new set of monkey bars..

Cheers Angus. I'll leave you with it for a while and keep an eye on this thread, or check in with you again in a few weeks.

BTW, that looks like an interesting project you've got going on in the pic.

    • 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.
