Manual I gather?

I've really gotta get back to the drag strip asap! It's getting progressively harder to get into that top 10 list!

Cheers,

matt

Matt its the blue GTST with Street Macines sign wrote all over it with GTR front gaurds and a RB26, I checked it out at our Jamboree damn nice car, running smaller twin Apexi turbos, Nitrous and Mickey Thompson ET street slicks it was running constant 10.9's all weekend

Standard box ay - well that's nice to know that it'll cope with enough power to run 10's.

That's one of the reasons I'm hesitant to run the car on Nitto's/Slicks/whatever.

Don't fancy having to fork out for a gearbox rebuild! :(

In any case - sounds like a very well prepped car. Is it a drag special - or just a really quick street car?

Cheers,

matt

Yep Matt, manual still running the standard box, I was very impressed, it also had a full ANDRA aproved cage etc, its a well set up car
Buster when are you going to go quicker? your starting to slip down the antilag leaderboard :spank:

Tom thats ok mate, the BU5TER will be back soon sporting a complete new engine transplant/combination, turbo kit and suspension work, If all goes to plan it should be very interesting

Even more impressive!

Out of interest - has anyone tried running drag shocks in a manual skyline? Do they help much getting out of the hole?

Cheers,

matt

Well thats the funny thing, he told me its 90% set up as a track car and see's more track work then drags hence the smaller twin turbos

    • 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
