His socks are probably still wet as he got off the boat into a skyline. With that said, I am guessing he squirted WD40 on wastegate flap and saying something about in neutral it goes to +10 which is probably wrong considering the nissan gauge is +7-7. You will most likely never create positive boost on the stock turbo in neutral. Your gauge is probably shit. + is positive boost - is vacuum, or negative boost if you wish.

Ok I get it now. The Sarge is correct. Now that I've read it a few more times It does make sense.

You won't create any noticeable positive pressure while in 'N' because of the lack of load on the engine. Make sure your gauge is accurate by checking against another one

if your some kind of mechanic ,doesn't mean u can drive .it means u work 4 $18h :thumbsup:

Maybe where you come from pal. In Australia being a mechanic means not only can you drive but you get paid $30 an hour upwards.

exactly and they wonder why theres a skills shortage..

I found a job the other day fixing pallets, was shift work but paid over 1000$ a week..I know blokes earning twice that pushing a broom at the desal plant..

Its crazy but truth is by giving people with no qualifications money often means they will spend it with qualified people which lets qualified people can charge what they likeand the people paying dont care cause they make heaps of money for nothing.....its the circle of life

at the end of the day though the broom pusher is more expendable than a qualified mehanic.If there was a war the broom pusher will be on the frontline getting shot at while the mechanic will still be fixig cars ,or tanks..

Who in their right mind would work for $19 an hour if they were a qualified mechanic? You get paid more packing shelves at the local supermarket.

Exactly....but would I be happy packing shelves at a local supermarket? Hell no.

Obviously you have the potential to earn more with a busy employer or a large company in need but Mechs are the lowest paid trade in the world

    • 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.
