Hello.

This is my first time posting and i feel a little silly.

I drive an r34 and unfortunately i do not know a lot about it. My boyfriend was the one who knew what to do, where to go, what to buy and he is not longer in my life.

I would be very grateful to find someone that would be willing to help me out. Be happy to answer any stupid questions i have or help me with problems, especially someone in the Launceston area.

I don't want to have to sell it because i love driving it and i don't want to have to ask the ex for help. Plus i don't want to be that stupid girl that knows nothing about her car.

I would greatly appreciate any help.

P.s Project Dark Winter was the log in that my ex created forever ago, not sure how to change it :(

Welcome to the forum PWD, as the others have already pointed out don't be afraid to ask questions but 99% of the time the answer is already on the forum so remember to use the search function.

There are plenty of places in Launceston that specialise in Imports & Performance cars and countless threads here in the Tassie section regarding that topic and the topic of tuning so maybe read a few of them to bring yourself upto speed.

As for the name change, post here with your request :rofl2:

and thanks to other people that reminded me why i will probably never post anything again.

I so new it was going to come to this!!!

I have a copy of the r34 manual on disc if you like, after a while you get to know who is who on these forums and most of the guys are just having a bit of fun

and I am sure if you ask a question they would all love to help.

I use Rons Automotive for all major things or for stuff i just cant be bothered doing, He is always willing to help out and will do a good job at a good price,

and thanks to other people that reminded me why i will probably never post anything again.

Most people on here are helpful... Unfortunately select few are yet to grow up.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Also remember the R34 is going to be no more difficult than any other car to maintain, And i'd rather spend money on maintaining a car i like and enjoy driving like the 34.

My mum actually drives a moddified R33 gts-t and has learnt the basics about it, knows enough to get her by.

...Welcome by the way :action-smiley-069:

and thanks to other people that reminded me why i will probably never post anything again.

Don't let immature comments from some members put you off . Its an enthusiast community after all , regardless of one's sex!

i forgot the internets is serious business.

But seriosly if you start a thread build around the fact that your a girl (recently single at that) on a male based forum you will get people posting things like "are you hot", "pics or gtfo"..etc. It's only meant for a laugh

If you have an issue with your car, and need help, just search or ask. There are heaps of blokes who know nothing about cars, so being a recently single girl is irrelivant.

And most of all, have a laugh

    • 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.
