Guys i need input from you gurus as to which way to go with wiring.... I am starting from scratch and want it to be as clean and simple as possible. I am thinking maybe a central Dash mounted panel with resettable circuit breakers and run all the basics through them so I don't have to worry about fuses. Obviously good quality wire and relays.

If anyone has any suggestions please jump in!!

Check out raychem products, you can go all out use their wire, heatshrink, moulded joins, cover the loom in dr-25 etc. where ever you mount the panel it needs to be easy to get to so your not upside down tangled in the cage trying to work on the electrics, resettable circuit breakers are the way to go for sure!

Haha this thread is turning into a 'ask for help' thread. Oh well.

My tuner made some comments about running the Haltech PS2000 ECU i have and wants me to run a motec system.

Super expensive but happy to pay the money if worth it.

What are you guys thoughts???

You might have to search google, I havn't seen a topic on here about their stuff but that doesn't mean their isn't. It's pretty high end to go with their moulded joins, looms covered in dr-25 but very good quality, there might be cheaper alternatives.

With ECUs you could argue all day about what's better but in my opinion it's best to either find a tuner that likes your ECU or use what he recommends

Yeah having a tuner who is confident in the product he/she is tuning is definitely a consideration.

Their products seem interesting, cant find a massive amount of info on it unfortunately but found the Australian distributor so will give them a call!!

Hey guys,

IM BACK!!!

So keen to update you all on the progress, lots has happened!!!

Although the car is not finished, it has been coming along nicely and i have done lots of work to the old girl. I will update the thread with photos and details shortly.

Noddy: The car will run a very special 26/30, standard gearbox (for now) and NISMO diff. I just had a little peak at your build, they dont look tooo dissimilar. Woudl be keen to hear how yours goes and think we should pit them against eachother sometime ;)

#skyginer: Yeah the geomerty itself is standard however we have installed every IKEA Formula arm available (roll centre included) bar the front upper control arms which they said wouldnt be back in stock for a long time. SO for this i modified some CUSCO arms.

Cheers,

    • 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.
