sup kunce

we won "organizer's choice"

which probably had a lot more to do with Hank blatantly bribing the officials with delicious bbq than anything else

no idea where we were at the end, but that isn't really the point of lemons

Hence the team that re-entered their silvia, fitted with a not-very-fresh RD28

Dale! Angie sent me a bunch of pics from the weekend, I'll get them through to you.

Yeah, I agree, I think we won on our epic BBQ - Dale even got a fkn medal!!!

I think overall (laps wise) we came around the 5th mark.

Plans are already a foot for nect year, Dale is even going to help drive!

Update on car: 
It's blowing Fuel Pump fuses like a mother, got it booked it to get towed to C-Red for an investigation. 

Then it *might* head to the body shop.

Good luck! Hopefully it's an easy fix.


Speaking of car dramas...

So I'm trying to buy parts for my Humvee. Found a bloke in America with what I want at great prices. He says he won't ship overseas and I tell him that parts only need to go to Texas. He's happy with that and keeps talking to me.

We finalise the order and agree on the price and shipping. I ask how to pay, he says he doesn't use Paypal (maybe because of their fees or he's old, I don't know), so he says I can pay with a cheque or money order. Well mate, I'm in Australia I can't send you a fkn cheque can I? I ask about the money order, I ask if that means sending the money directly to his bank account which I've done previously for parts in America, it's fairly straight forward. Apparently not! Now he won't accept overseas payments...

So apparently I have to get my mate in Texas to send him a fkn cheque (then I pay my mate obviously) before he sends parts.

Geez! If you didn't wanna' sell me shit in the 1st place, just say so! It's a $765 USD order, why wouldn't you want it!?

Meanwhile I bought my Smart Start through someone else via paypal this morning and it gets shipped tomorrow lol.

Hopefully they can fix it without bleeding you dry!

    • 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.
