Dunno if im barging in on anything, but i've had a 32 gtst for a few months now... Keen to cruise with the locals as im in Rothwell....

On a brighter note, I was in Peninsula paint today n "saved" some poor sod who thought he blew his turbo on a twin turbo supra.... Turns out he should check his intercooler piping more often.. Fished out the slipped hose clamp and with a trusty 10mm I never go anywhere without, saved him a trip to the workshop. Wish all my mechanical problems were that cheap or easy :)

Im Troy by the way. If anyone filled up at the caltex on deception bay road just up from the rothwell roundabout, chances are we've already met

Hey Troy. Welcome. My missus just works behind you at the child care centre and owns a marine blue 33 4 door. I have a white 32 4 door. I know the owner of the servo for years and years. Top bloke. One night boys I will organise a meet, just been very sick lately and haven't had much time of a night to hang around. Hang in there as it will happen I promise.

spotted Brad in the 32 4 door heading up Buchananans Rd. just now. nice clean looking car :thumbsup:

finally got the new engine in the little ladies Beetle. once its run in and tweaked properly I'll have the liner back in my hands more permanently.

Wednesday at the BP's sounds good this week. but i think we should give somewhere around northlakes a go maybe?? should be parking and some eats there somewhere. gonna look into a good spot some time soon...when i get a moment to think in between doing stuff.

clean is the under statement of the century... :D

its (ummmmm cant find the words) super duper clean...

Ultra shiny?

I have badly damaged my back so someone is going to have to drive me on wendsday night. (I can barely limp atm)

for sure.

ive done many a large amount of Body work in my time, but the older brother is normally the one swinging the spray gun when we paint cars......but hes in Wagga atm doing his military thing...soo chances are that wont happen for a while anyways.

What were you in???? I have morning face on and everything is a blur. Some mornings I don't know how I got to work lol. So if you had waved I apologise man. I have seen a black 32 coupe along the same road every morning. Very clean as well.

LOL Col. I'm a clean freak YES. Bit pissed off with the rain this week. Made the car look rather shitty. Spent close to 3 hours cleaning it this morning.

    • 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
