Once again correct me if I am wrong,

32 and 33 GTR have the same boxes the only difference being push or pull.

Early 32 GTR Push

Late 32 GTR and all 33 GTR Pull

Thanks for the info mate much appreciated :)

This is defiantly a big learning experience

Yes both the 32 and 33 have the separate ignitor in the rb26 and have 5spd gearboxes

But on the actual harness the 32 has a grey plug where it connects into the car and the 33 has a black plug (which are also different shapes)

Update time

Engine is together

86mm Ross pistons mated up with Eagle rodss and ACL race bearings

ARP head studs and and main studs hold everything together

I have pictures on another phone of the build I will post them up sometime soon

The -5 turbos, and manifolds were all port matched and mounted with Tomei style high flow dump pipes and HKS waste gate actuators

Fitted up the Greddy manifold never actually realized how big it was compared to the stock one

Fitted a HKS fuel rail with 1200cc Deutchworks injectors

Was a bitch to fit engine but we got it done

Fuel system is done

Running a big surge tank roughly 8L

Twin 044 pumps rubber mounted into a Aeroflow Y block, 2x one way check valves

Teflon braided fuel line is used for the supply and return lines

E85 rated hose is used in the fuel tank and to the supply to surge

Half way down the car is a 200 micron cleanable E85 fuel filter

And I'm running a Tomei fuel regulator

They look like Racing Gear JTC coilovers.

Does it ride real stiff?

Havent driven the car yet lol

Are they any good besides the ride?

I have a mate that may be interested in swapping them out for a Tein kit as he tracks the car move than he street drives

The next issue was the drivers side piping from the body to the Greddy manifold

The manifold inlet was around 100mm (4inch) with the hard piping kit it then reduced to 80mm outside diameter. The internal diameter of the cast hard pipe was 75mm (3inch) so my thoughts are with such a large step down that could be a point of restriction

So I called my good mate Nick who owns The Exhaust Center Midvale to see what he could do

Nick has done countless jobs for me from full custom exhausts to tow points, fire extinguisher mounts the list goes on definitely a great fabricator.

Here is what he had to work with

Nick spoke to me about it and said there was no way we could run 4inch from the intercooler but he thought with some minor body mods he could get a 3.5inch pipe to work and delete the lower silicone joiner this should reduce the amount of boost pipes blowing off

The result

I am really happy with

Imo it looks alot cleaner than the hard pipe kit and not as drastic angle changes

Not far until start up
Just small jobs to finish up
Its been a long time since I have done any soldering and wiring repairs on a car. I was lucky enough that the last 2 ex girlfriends were fully qualified auto sparkies hahahahaha :devil:
Anyway started fitting new plugs for injectors soon realized why I should have stuck it out with the ex...... :domokun:

I'm shit at soldering hahahahaha :rofl2:

Anyway with the help of my main man Peter Gray we got the plugs soldered taped and in place

I dropped in the coolant over flow bottle, windscreen washer and oil catch can assembly, fitted the radiator that Peter had already wired and mounted a craid davies thermo fan. Finally hooked up the catch can just need the Vipec ECU wired in and we are good for start up

One thing to note,

The 3.5" pipe that goes through the body, you need to put some rubber moulding type stuff around it otherwise it will wear through!

Happened on my mates s15 :S.

Yeah Nick said that but I'm gonna wait until the car is running and on the dyno to check

He said it may require more clearencing on the lip he rolled

    • 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.
