So there has been a slight knock over large bumps from the front of my car that wasn't happening a couple of weeks ago..... so I put it on a hoist to check it today and found this....................see something missing on the rhs? I guess when they changed the struts over for compliance someone didn't eat there wheeties prior to tightening it :domokun:

Yeah rang him as soon as I saw it, and sent photos. If I cant get a nut for it tonight I'll be ringing again and having a few very stern words

It was the demo car at musle car and I had to get it back to Nissan.....had ne etag so I took the long route.

Nearly went past isms house but I was a little tired after having a late night on sat after dad hit a wall in the r32. :(

confused.gif Sorry to hear that mate. Is he OK? Hope the cars OK too.

I got some Bog filler round here somewhere...wub.gif

well i finally commited to the swap yesterday!

to be honest, a few tears came down! and I already miss the stagea!(even if I did think it was a POS)

drove home in the s14 and its fkn amazing. the change from a wagon to a sports car is unbeleivably different.

Hopefully I'll get back into an M35 one day.

BTW, the new owner has already found the 3.8 stroker, and is planning on doing it. i just said good luck lol

hmm time for a name change.....

btw if I was looking for capacity I would be using the pathfinder 4l bottom end. I drove a 350z with that motor a few weeks ago and it was excellent

Who has some accurate production numbers of Stageas? C34 and M35 please.

I saw some on the interwebs long time ago, and can't find them now!

why you thinking that you might be in with the cool NM35 turbo crowd! :P

Or are you going to try and start a new group called the Lone Ranger PN35 turbo group!...maybe you shouldgoogle.gif to try and find friends! :P

Haha... having come from an R31 and can remember what the ride was like, I certainly do realise how comfortable (and practical) my Stag is.

    • 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.
