wow... I think I will vacate this topic.

Just relax a little. Its not like Im saying v8 supercars are slow. Shit they are fast, instant power, sound amazing.

Thanks for that pic zebra. Wicked :). hey fan boys can dream.

No you can proceed to bite my head off mad082.

Its nothing against you personally,

But its rather annoying when the fanboi's get together and with no real knowledge on the subject come on and say their favorite car, whether it is a GTR/EVO/Commodore etc, that it would be faster than some other car if they change a million things.

GTR fanboi's seem to be the worst there is, they still live in 1992 and think the supercars are slow, despite the fact that the Supercars were quicker from 1994, yep, and in their 1st year on running (93) they were only about .5sec slower than the Gp.A R32 GTRs quickest time.

This is true. Don't worry I stated that it would be close. Never said their slow :). I know how quick they are.

It's just a sensitive subject I suppose. All I really want is to see them race, even though they are in a different category, can you just imagine the race? No matter of oh this is going to be 2 sec slower than that, and rah rah, I like my Motorsport and would be great to watch. Just like the lemans races, or the gp

hahah Well good news for you, R35 GT3 set to run the the GT championship in Aus next year, so keep an eye out for the GT races on One HD

this. some of them even say "if the GTR was allowed to race in the v8 supercars it would flog them all like it did in the group A days". sorry boys, it wouldn't, because for it to run it would have to be running a 5.0L v8, and only rwd. so like the current V8 supercars, it would just be a generic racecar with a GTR shell (which would have to be cut and shut to make it the right size). the GTR isn't smashing all the other cars out of the water in the JGTCC classes because in those it's not running AWD and is running a v8, like all the other cars.

LOL, yeah those sierra's were the bomb. they also had different regulations due to being in a lower category. for example they had to run skinnier tyres. they could only run a 9" wide tyre, while the GTR could run 11" wide tyres. power output i don't think the sierra was too much lower than the GTR. they were putting out about 650hp. had they been able to run 11" wide tyres i think the GTR probably wouldn't have been as dominant.

    • 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.
