thermostat time :)

$20 tridon one, make sure the bleeder is at the highest point, i.e. facing up, there are no markings on the tridon ones, so you will need a little common sense fitting it

I had pretty much the same fuel economy on my Microtech equipped R32. Used to blow HUGE smoke clouds on WOT, lulz were often had with tailgating motorcyclists.

Ironically by the time I could afford to pay for dyno time to re tune it, I was sick of the car anyway. Got pretty damn quick @ replacing spark plugs every 10000km due to fouling though!

I'd be getting the AFRs etc checked on it if I were you

Is it costly?

aren't you using the stock ECU? if that's the case then there's not much you can do, unless you install a SAFC or similar to bend the air flow meter readings.

depends on your needs, waste if just running stock gear..... some gains, but in terms of cost justifcation, I think it's not worth it. Stock AFM, stock, turbo, stock injectors, etc.. just slap on a SAFC

^ pretty much. Most people I know did the SAFC path when the only mods were very minor like a catback / fmic.

Should cost you around 100 bucks or so to get a reputable workshop to chuck your car on the dyno and do a few runs to check AFRs (unless you know someone with a wideband!)

    • 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.
