Hi Guys I wanna join motor sport and i'm seeking a track ready car as I know building one form scratch isn't cheep.

Though i am an aspirated fan, i love boosted skylines

The link below is the car I have in mind though a mate on mine thinks the car is too powerful & serious to start off with. Do you guys agree?

I want value for money and more so Cheap Thrills, and i think bringing a car up to a similar spec as the one below will cost more. yes?

The mods are:

6 point roll cage

Bigger turbo

R34 GTR brakes

R32 GTR intercooler

Spitfire Coil packs

in car adjustable boost reg.

High flow injectors

z32 airflow meter

Recently dyno tuned

White line sway bars

Has been used in Targa tasmania.

I know its hard to say but generally speaking and from your experience, is a car like this expensive to maintain and should i expect regular problems?

looks like a bargain to me. If you think it's too powerful turn down the boost.

Definitely worth considering.

I wouldn't expect it to be particularly unreliable, no more so that any other car that regularly sees the track.

Good car.

Contact Savman or DJdrift to get the inside line mate.

or me :) , it is a cheap car for the amount of work that has gone into it , you couldn't build one the same anywhere near that price . as for your skill level , it's a bit of a jump in the deep end with that much power but i'm sure you could whack a smaller turbo on it and get it retuned untill your confident :D

    • 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.
