just washed mine after a run up the mountain on wednesday (was fithly after it)

got a hose onto it and gave the underside a good spray

i cant belive how much mud/dirt/rocks there were stuck under the side skirts and hiding away in the rear bumper

i reckon about 20kg of dirt came off the underside and i dont think it was all from that one trip

Well picked up my first stag yesterday 97 model and has 25t xfour written on the back got cream leather interior the satelite navigation tv screen in it has a full 3.5 inch TBE and hks turbo timer also has 18inch rims look like volks of some sort but gotta pull them off and have a look and the best part is I picked it up

for two grand with 8 month rego any how will be going in next week to have a new crossmember put in as the one in it is twisted and also will be getting a FMIC and injectors and eboost 2 put in and then have a tune done so will let you know how it all goes.

I changed the timing belt and caused the check engine light to come on.... :D

^^^ oh........pull the globe it will be fine!!! lol

speaking of pulling globes... kidafa not that long ago changed his dash to blue LED's... and didnt put his petrol light globe in properly...

needless to say he got a rather decent mileage to that tank...:D:D

Yesterday:

Hacked up the CF-look centre console plastic to graft an R34 manual shift console onto. But 50% done. All cutting/trimming is done, now I just need to plastic weld it all together and bog up the gaps. Later it all gets covered with some real CF. :bunny: Should be finished by early June.

Touched up/puttied and resprayed my front Aero type M bar.

While I had the bar off, refitted the electric fan in front of the a/c condenser.

Had to remove the FMIC to refit the fan, so I also discovered a 10mm size hole in the intercooler, from a bolt on the chassis rubbing thru. :thumbsup: Fixed it up, refitted and test drove it after. Bit more responsive now :banana:

In the next fortnight, I'll be upgrading my brakes to a 325mm kit. :banana:

    • 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.
