yep good idea if you just want a cheap run around

the one i got is 2004 and v cheap, sure it aint perfect but who cares

the ba's i looked at starting price is around 6500 to 7k for mid 150,000+ on them

but still in v good condition and hardly anything wrong

even with stuff wrong, still v cheap to fix

i was looking and low 200,000models for around 6k as well

its funny

the market value for a 1988 vl calais turbo is 4k to 6.5k

yet the market value for a 2004 ba falcon goes from 4000 to 5400 i think

Try closer to 10k Paul for a calais turbo, upto easy 15k. ;)

IN other news... SAU Nats DVD is ready! Anyone coming on GOR can get them early :)

RAAAGGGEEE! Another night goes past .... still the harmonic balancer bolt stays tight. Cannot get it undone. Everything has been tried. 3/4in drive rattle guns, breaker bars, proping breaker bars and cranking the car .... nothing is getting this bolt undone :(

any suggestions?

    • 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
