G day people I have a 98 gtt only owned it 2 months so I know nothing about these things starts fine idles fine but when I put the hammer down any where from 3500 to 5000 the power will drop out completely.. I thought it blew up .. But still is running... If I drive around just normally it's ok will only drop out when it feels like it have changed the fuel filter thought I might ask before I take it to the shop .. Standard intercooler and turbo 3 inch exhaust k&n air filter cheers

Hmmmm... I don't think anyone has ever tried anything other than oem coilpacks.

You know modification of r34's never really took off so I don't think there would be very strong aftermarket support for these cars.

Same on why there isn't much info about squeezing power out of them on the net.

great stuff. it's good practice to gap your plugs down to 0.8mm as well. Fresh coil packs should be firing no problem but reducing the gap makes it a bit easier on the ignition system.

you can buy pregapped plugs - BKR6E or BCPR6ES. Don't get the ones with -11 suffix, those are 1.1mm gap (and unfortunately more common). The ones without the suffix are 0.8mm.

you can put platinums/iridiums in if you get a good price but copper plugs are cheap and although you have to change them a bit more often it's good to have a look at them now and then (spark plugs tell a story about how your engine is running.. rich? lean? detonating? you'll see it on the plugs).

Say what?!

if they have -11 at the end then all you have to do is gap them down to 0.8.

If they are the same heat range as what is required then it makes zero difference!

I have gotten spark plugs that were meant to be gapped at 0.8 but were all over the shop, 0.7 - 1.0 on a batch of six

    • 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.
