Pretty sure there is a whole thread of basic mods to do. But as a reply to your questions;

- Turbo timer - Don't bother imo

- Boost controller - Greddy Profect B Spec II (I have one, it's awesome)

- Exhaust - depends what you're after... Cannon, twin tips, mufflers, decat or cat, etc etc... too many options

- Front sway bar - Whiteline, Pretty sure everyone recommends them for quality and how much of an upgrade they do

- Suspension - What suspension are you after? Springs? Coilovers? Adjustable arms? etc etc...

- I would also recommend an aftermarket in-tank fuel pump if you're going to up the boost, I've got a walbro 255 and it's good

- Also if you're going to up the boost, depending by how much, you'll need to get an aftermarket ECU. Haltech (expensive option), Apexi power FC (about a grand (I think)), NIStune (about $360 + you will need an R32 ECU (because R33 ones aren't tune-able))

Not sure about the other stuff though... I'm sure someone else can shed some light on it...

* turbo timer- probably not needed but it wont hurt either, I use a greddy unit

* boost controller- makes a big difference I use a Apexi AVCR,

* remote start / alarm system / key less entry- been told remote start makes it easy to steal

* front mount inter cooler- definitely, can be a toss up as far as quality, I use a $400 cooling pro

* exhaust- atleast 3inch with atleast one good oval muffler

* front sway bar

* suspension- be careful of spring rates, 8 in front and 5 in rear was recommended to me, don't want more than that

*after

also if you can think of any other things i can do that isn't to expensive to boost performance

thanks again sorry i am just new to this and would love to learn - make a plan of what you want to achieve first so you don't have to do things twice..

    • 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.
