the top pippig im really wanting to replace coz as you may see when they put it on it started hitting the bonnet, so i had my mechanic try and lower it as much as he could coz it was rubbing pretty bad

Yep but you will find that is a bigger job than you think as you will need a different intercooler setup etc

yea im just concerned that if it rubs a hole in it im kinda dead in the water

Pack race tape :P Lol, no really you should have the pipe modified to stop the rubbing! Plenty of other cars running that style piping without issues :yes:

yea its lowered now and isnt touching as far as i can tell but if you look at it in real life the way they placed stuff and the cheap rubber piping seems weird. btw a quick qestion with the stock turbos should they constsit with its boost or should it patter out around a certain rmp then kick in again ? or should i have that looked at? lol

first turbo so im still figuring out how it should ride and what it should feel like with the mods he put on it.

i dont know the boost or horsepower yet for sure, need to wait a month to get the cash together to put it on the dyno and have it serviced. but from what the guy i got it from he said it was 187kws and boosted to 14 psi and after a fortnight of driving it i very much doubt that is real.

yea im taking it to millennium motorsports and putting it on the dyno there and he said he would make sure its boosted safely and rework the boost for different gears so i dont get 14 psi on first gear etc. so im hoping that will fix her. apart from that shes a great car even has the factory sunroof =). clean inside just need to remove that pink crap from the skyline on the back and pull off the gtr badge.

Lol well report back with how it all goes mate!

Gotta go, talk later!

Fix the weak spot. turns out the turbo smart machanic boost controller was stuffed and pissing out pressure, running like a dream now all thanks to cyifly from these forums meeting up and having a look at her for me. awsome guy and god damn his car is a BEAST! lol

    • 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.
