In hindsight, Holinger have supported me every step of the way thus far.

I got a call from AWARD diff and gear as I was co-ordinating flight times and scheduling for the team back

at Powertune to present the car for WTAC...

Terry said that the parts are on there way up.... next flight out of Melbourne and will arrive at his doorstep 11pm

He will then rebuild the box for me overnight and call me as soon as its ready....... YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

12am... SMS.... flights are delayed because of bush fires....ETA is 1am for delivery....get some sleep was his last words!

Mind you, the average sleep per night from myself and the crew at Powertune was about 3 hours for the 2 weeks leading

up to WTAC... and there was a few nights I was relegated to the couch at home lol Mrs is a champion!

4am.... come pickup the box..... Boys at Powertune had setup the car on a hoist and were on standby to put this box in

as soon as it was ready! 5am box was back at Powetune.... And car was on dyno 7am the morning of Day 1 WTAC

Forgot that amongst this, between wed and thurs I had the car at heasmans for suspension readjustments. Softer springs went

in and car realigned and weighted. VSPORT who originally did this had there own troubles..engine failure on the evo10 and Kallis

evo9 lost its rear hub.

Thanks to Brad at Heasmans for taking the car on with such late notice.

When it was patiently waiting for a box at Powertune the morning after, the guys at Motogrpahics did the decals! Wicked!

    • 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.
