Hi Guys,

Just joined but i will be mostly lurking and keeping up with the scene. Recently finished up my GT-R after what felt like an eternity off the road. In that time i was playing with my S14 S1. That was lightly modded with exhaust, 15PSI, front mount, SAFC but i managed to get a 12.80 out of it with a dead clutch. Don't really go on many cruises any more from fear of EPA but i do try and get out to the drag strip. Have built my GT-R for circuit work/daily street but i hope to improve on my time with the 200sx at WSID.

GTR has:

Twin T517z

HKS twin plate clutch

Hard pipe kit

Twin oil coolers

Koyo rad

Power FC with twin Z32s

Ohlins coilovers

33gtr Brembos

Black TE37s

supporting fuel system

nismo underbody braces

Tomie cams

ETC.

Yet to get a real tune through it but hoping for 360awkw+

i notice you have a P plate on the GTR in your pic. is that still current? just asking before i go on a bit of a rant. if it isn't, then welcome and ignore the following.

i thought NSW had P plate restrictions? do you have an exemption or are you simply disregarding the laws? if the latter, do you realise that you are part of the reason why imports get a hard time from the cops. the laws are there and everytime the cops pull over a P plater in a restricted car it only hurts the image of imports both in their eyes, and the eyes of the general public. this means that more pressure is put on the police to give import owners a hard time. it doesn't help other P platers either. not to mention the possible implications for your insurance in the event of a crash.

sorry for the rant, but we have plenty of people starting threads asking how to get exemptions so they can go buy a turbo car, or threads about how they bought one anyway and then start going on about how they race everything they see. doesn't do the image of the forum, and import owners in general much good.

Yes that's a current picture. And yeah from my time driving i have noticed quite a few traffic light kings young and old quite annoying really. But i guess that's what you have to put up with driving a car that stands out in Sydney. I am more of a sedate driver no point driving like a lunatic on the street i save that for the track.

How over sensitive have we become that instead of congratulating a new member on the purchase that most of us aspire to (R32 GTR) we give him a hard time for driving it on his p's. The police and law makers already hate imports, this guy driving his GTR on his p's, while a risk personally, isn't going to do any more damage to our rep.

Top job Desavona, hopefully everything goes well.

Very jealous right now.

    • 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
