Got a pretty clean 93 GTR that has bugger all done to it,so far. Had it for about 25,000k`s now. Just the other week i notice this grinding or rattling noise coming from what sounds like the bell-housing on an up hill take off in 1st. Noise only hangs around for 2 seconds or so. Just had it taken from 180 to 220 awkw around the same time. Noise only happens 2-3 times a drive (long drive) on easy take off. Won`t ever happen if take power up on the clutch first. Ayone out there gone through this??

Might be similar to what i have, which I'm guessing is rooted input shaft bearing in the gearbox. I've been driving with it that way for years now (but no launches). I'll get the box rebuilt the next time i take it out.

Check the oil level as a precaution.

Carcass? "Death is no escaaaaaaaaape..."

Well Adam or 'Mr Stabby' I hope it doesn't come to a gear box re-build $$$. Not before clutch time anyways. Can't feel a thing through the stick though. Went for a blast today and not a thing,so i guess the noise will become more and more consistant with wear? Don't launch it anyways. Still feels like a stock clutch,light as a feather. It all happens while i'm Descanting The Insalubrious.

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
