My questions is, if you keep adding Ford parts to your Nissan, at what point does it become a Ford? :P

How do you like the cable throttle anyway? Completely different to drive isn't it.

I'll tell you once the shaft is in, right now aggressive pedal just means wheel spin

Yeah, I bet it's fun in the wet today.

I remember when mine was turbo and rwd, anything below 4th would light it up on a wet surface.

Not sure today, the mrs is driving it. My wheel spin was yesterday in the dry. I made the mrs very aware she had to take it easy today though.

so i done fuel economy test last night, bit of freeway, bit of bafoonary and a bit of around town and got 11.5litres per 100. I'm ok with that. Im sure with out the bafoonary I would have got into the 10s

The skyline wheels will fill those arches well.

You putting 245/45 sized tyres on them?

Yes I am.

I had decided to go nitto invo, called up earlier to make sure they had stock and they dont :( they have offered me yokohama advan sport v103 for $210ea which I think is pretty reasonable. So unless someone has had a bad experience and can tell me to stay away that's what I will be going with

On face value, I'd be leaning toward the Dunlop; as it isn't an asymmetrical design.

This gives you a bunch more options when it comes to rotating & flipping tyres to get the maximum amount of wear.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
