Still waiting to pick up my car. It was supposed to be a 6 working day wait for the compliance plate and has been 8 so far!

Ahh man I had this crap with them also. Ended up taking almost 3 weeks for me. Hope it's faster for you.

6 days? Sure he didnt say 6 weeks?

I was told 3 weeks and took 5 or 6. Took longer because of a long weekend. 6 days sounds optimistic especially with easter coming.

It didn't bother me because I had to sell my old car, ended up selling 2 weeks before I picked up the car.

I hope it's not 3 weeks! I haven't paid for the car yet so if he wants this bank cheque it's in his best interest to get it ready..

They told me 6 weeks to get me one from Japan but 6 days to have the one in the yard complied.

I don't NEED it immediately but I'm keen to start fiddling around with it as soon as possible, my new hobby.

If anyone has any ideas on how I can get my money back and out of my contract I will drive over and buy this car immediately???? HELP!

ring him and tell him if he doesnt return your deposit you will dob him into the authorities for complience issues. ie not changing tyres until you called him out on it. Im sure he will not want that coming down on him.

I'd walk away from $1000 to buy Chris's car.

You would have to spend at least another $10,000-$15,000 (I would bet that would be the tip of the iceberg) to have the work done in the manner it has been done to his car.

You are right...I bought Chris's car this afternoon. Picking up tomorrow.

    • 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
