Cheap mig haha. I have more money in welders than every cent in old mates stagea from site work actually.. Let alone the welders I have access to in the workshop. What qualifications do you have exactly to talk down a cert 4? Haha yeah guys so impossible to knock up some engine mounts hey.

Thank you!! It doesn't bother me to much man, all car forums are the same, everyone thinks being a wanker makes them look funny and tough. In reality they just look stupid, they don't have enough knowledge to answer a few simple questions so they start throwing around insults. some people just don't get it. Thank you for being the only one that actually read and understood what I said.

friggin hell there is some retards on here. The dude quite clearly says he is aware of it not being the best option, and explains why he is doing it, to get a cheap car going. But no, everyone has to run him down and rubbish his ideas, cause it's not what 'they' would do. F&*ktards.

If you have any info to help him, post it. Otherwise STFU and quit being keyboard warriors.

my last comment was supposed to be a quote to your comment whoops

I'm sure you do

Gogo name what you have

Heaps of money in mig welders but no money for a shell or decent engine?

Cool.

Anyway you know your answer. The tails haft will need changing. So either shorten it or lengthen it when you do the conversion. You can do it. You told us.

do you think I would rather spend money welders? I need to work I don't need a skyline engine, it won't make me any money will it. Actually if you can read I asked if any other tail shafts would fit instead of me modifying. Don't just say I said shit to support your argument. Will post a picture of all my welded when I get to my computer :)

Also it's pretty obvious calling someon and their plans retarded is a bit more than rude, and you know you were doing it. I didn't tell you guys anything and I wasn't rude to anyone who wasn't a tosser to me first.

Well to put it into perspective

I paid 4k recently for a registered tidy R33 Gts-t

Which is why some of us are saying its a waste of time

Wow that's cool, and totally irrelevant to my thread. I didn't ask for the price of registered 33s I asked for tail shaft help, I'm really happy for you and your purchase but I'd rather do it my way. I enjoy working on my cars and would have fun building it. Is it that hard for you to understand what I'm saying?

In what?

In anything really, mostly your fabrication qualifications. What right do you have to talk down a cert 4 in engineering fabrication? You wanna tell me I can't make some engine mounts? You seem like someone that works in an office to me. "Oh I went to tafe 2 days a week" hahah go on you pass a welding test and tell me it's easy

Hmmm. OK, so I'm not out. I'll come back in just for a laugh.

As to qualifications......Let me see. The last thing I designed for a customer weighs about 6 tons, was made from a mixture of mild steel, 304L, inconel, various bits of tool steel and all sorts of other bits and bobs. I had my draughtsmen (yes, plural) work up the 30 or so drawings for it. It took 2 weeks to draw, 6 weeks before that for design calculations and CFD modelling. Cost the customer about $200k. Oh, and they bought two of them. And each one is carried on a trolley that weighs about 10 tons, runs on overhead rails, has hydraulic adjustments for total height and vertical and horizontal angles, plus 2HP electric motors to drive along the rails. Operating environment temperature for the front end is about 1500°C. Well, the flame is probably more like 2000°C. Oh, and I did the site survey and the installation work in South Africa, which was nice. I got to go on safari in the Pilansberg afterwards. While I was there I visited another customer's site and will design something similar for them very shortly. I do this sort of shit several times a year, in between consulting for people to work out why they blew something up (hopefully without killing someone), or how they can stop something undesirable happening in their process, or just doing esoteric calculations on heat transfer, energy balances or the like.

So, I'm not going to tell you my qualifications. It wouldn't be fair to you.

    • 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.
