yeah great pic looks bloody cold there,

how come yours revs to 8000rpm?

Mine also revs to 8000; I think Mat and I have the exact same head setup. Performance valve springs and retainers plus poncams, my tuner thought it was safe to rev that high.

Rev limit gets set in the Haltech (Or link in Martins case) and apparently with the springs and retainers etc 8000rpm is where the party is!

Edit - And nope that was a pretty warm day!

You have a better setup that me as your head has been off ;)

Gave the headlights a quick wipe with PLAST-X today, cant wait to get home and finish it as they look so different even with a quick wipe! Very impressed!

A quick snap from this morning while i was checking a few things, i cant wait to get the bay all cleaned up and take some decent shots.... I will head down to the bolt shop and find new stainless bolts for the timing case cover etc just to make it look a bit cleaner, ill also give the runners etc a good clean up so it all looks nice and neat.

I would leave the rad as is, alloy enhances the black theme IMO.

I was thinking the same thing. It matches the comp cover, hose clamps and other little silver bits in the engine bay.

Starting to think the same, by the time i go out and get shiny bolts and clean everything up properly it should look OK!

Its still got coolant and shit everywhere from that radiator drama :glare:

    • 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
