I only said 2J, and besides even IF mine had a 2JZ-GTE it wouldn't be worth 15k. 5spd would blow in no time, along with its crapy 2/1 pot brakes... still rather spend the coin on a decent RZ.

All I want is to know what i'n means? you used it more than 3 times in one post so it's clearly not a spelling mistake. never seen that abbreviation before...

also, found the perfect one for you.

it's in WA AND it comes with a 2JZ.. asking price is $99,000 but surely much easier than buying one allll the way over east. makes me wonder how all those people import cars from even further away than say sydney. places like japan even. they must be nuts.

I did have one problem with your engine transplant idea though. all the JZA80 supras I could find for sale, yes even the ones in WA, all had 2JZ engines already fitted to them?!?! WTF? their owners must have beaten you to it and installed the 2JZ. maybe you could ask one to sell you one without the 2JZ engine in it, and then you can do the transplant?

there is an awesome supra I've seen in japan (not one of the tops eecret built ones) with a nice built RB26 in it making around 750ps, with sequential 6 speed box etc and lots of gear. I actually like it. it would annoy a few folks though. top secret started sticking RB26 into supras cause he 'knew' how to tune the 26 and thought it was god's gift to engine bays. I did like his GT300 inspired 3SGTE powered supra though. that thing was cool.

did you just reveal his 'top secret' :P

Whoever built that car is a wealthy master troll.

Have to say I'd be doing similar things if I had the money to burn.

His name is Smokey and he is no troll !

and Beer Baron, when looking for Rb26 Supras one of the google images links was in your gallery Lol

Could you put the AWD drivetrain in that too? Sure the soop would weigh quite a bit, but an AWD Supra would be sweet.

This engine does not need internal combustion to operate, pressure from that turbo alone will suffice lol. You just need to tow start it and build the revs up to 10,000 first :P

    • 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
