There is no solenoid, only a coil for the cam actuation. It is the blue plug on the cover you see. Perhaps you didn't seat the coil properly when you reassembled?

There is a good chance the sensor/sensors are starting to fail, I would change both cam sensors (on the back of the heads) and see how you go.

THANX HKS! I still got more bits to get like tyres for the V35 rims n gotta get the R34 calipers rebuilt. U the best :D.

Can I repay you with BJ's? xD

Care to elaborate the BJ part???

Sumitomo kits are about $30- $50 on Fleabay ;http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NISSAN-Skyline-Sumitomo-4-Piston-BRAKE-SEAL-REBUILD-KIT-Front-Disc-Brake-Caliper-/400486674567?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5d3eddb087&_uhb=1

When I stripped & rebuilt my Sumitimo's; the seals were so good I ended up re-using them. A bath in some hot, soapy water and they were good to go.

Admittedly, they looked like they'd done very little work.

I'm not sure, I guess theyre Sumitimo's. I havent looked at them in months, They came off a wrecked stagea I bought the manual conversion kit.

My guess is they were an upgrade from the standad front brake set up

im currently trying to source r32 gtr front brakes with no luck. Its like all set have been snapped up lately and people selling them want 4 - 500 just for front.....

. I have r32 gtr brakes on mine and they work well

Fair enough, if you stumble across some 34 brakes you can run those without your shims

Just for reference:

Brakes_nissan_table.gif

With anything R34 using 14mm bolts and everything else using 12mm bolts (need to have shims for S2 C34's and M35's)

    • 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.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
