so after comming home from a mates place where i was playing some pool tonight i discovered the central west reversing ability is rather low. the r33 i bought about 3 weeks ago has now been reversed into. at this point i hadnt had a chance to put insurance on it so im in a bit of a pickle and as my job is delivering pizza in newcastle i have no way home atm and no way to do work. for now i have mums shed and a good mate to get her back on her feet. but this is where i need you guys to help me out. i dont have a very big budget because im not working for obvious reasons but at this stage i need the following:

> r33 s1 hood

> r33 s1 passenger headlight

> r33 s1 front grill with the skyline badge on it

> r33 series 1 radiator

> r33 series 1 radiots electric fan

> r33 series 1 front bar (might be able to fix the current one.

im sure there will be more that needs replacing when i start pulling it apart in the morning. im also thinking however seeings though im in the situation i wouldnt mind doing a series 2 front end coversion but only if i can stretch my budget. for now though can anyone inbox me with whatever parts they have an how cheaply they can let go of them. thanks everyone and wish me luck getting my pride and joy back on the road.

took me a while but thanks xntrq. car is back together and ive resprayed most of your parts black for that carbon fibre look. i put my original silver front bar back on after drift stitching it back together.

and im unsure of what hit it as i came out of a mates place, walked round the corner and there it was with the hood nearly bent back up onto the windscreen. so im guessing either vandals beat her up or a ute with a big toe ball went back on her.

nah its all good now. all i need replacing atm is my heater core but im picking one up tomorrow. next time im in sydney if u still have a r33 lying around i might come get the front rotors off it depending on condition?

    • 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.
