It gets very dark down there :whistling:

Good luck to those running tonight, might be at the next one with luck :thumbsup:

wow your not wrong, it was pitch black and even on high beam it was a bit tricky. Still long track is so much better, so fast, 5th gear coming down the back straight, had a quick glance at the speedo was over 230kph :woot:

had Carl Ridler come for a few laps and give me some pointers, he was very helpful, and his advise made a lot of sense and when put into practice dropped a couple of seconds, he said my GTR had about same exceleration as a V8 supercar :banana:.

fastest long track and pb for me 65.2, and short track 56.0.... both quickest for the night :bunny:

was an excellant turn out with about 40 cars, can't wait for the next one, hope your ready for it Paul :thumbsup:

Carl Ridler is a good driver,belted my R33 for 3 laps and managed 1.10 on shit tyres and almost no brakes.I prefer short track (nice and bright) :rolleyes: Will definitely do next no limit night. Did anyone tried Hankook Z214? Going by the tread pattern it should grip nicely.

Heres some video ( shit footage because in the dark ) with some good pointers from Carl ( think I made a mess of the spelling of his name :blush: ) which could be useful to others, so thought I'd share, I knocked 2.5seconds off in the next run, after being out with Carl..

I'll let him do some laps in mine next time and see what it can really do :worship:

yeah short track is nicely lite but the long track flows much better and its only one corner in the dark, its a bit daunting for the first few laps but ok after that..

Awesome stuff. I wholeheartedly agree with letting the instructors, many of who are semi-professional drivers, take your car for a spin. Then you can see what it's truly capable of, and gives you something to aim for :thumbsup:

Tricstar, Those are some awesome times :thumbsup: Good tips from Karl :)

    • 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.
