I recall, (i think it was fatz) suggesting a few couriers to get some wheels from Sydney to melbourne.

Doesnt have to be overnight courier or anything, but cheap would be good.

Anyone have any suggestions.... for a lazy $100 im a chance of getting someone i know to backload it on a trip back to Melb, but id rather spend the money and get the rims now, not when he can do it.

Having sent rims interstate before I used Scotts Transport at Revesby. From memory it was $40 for a half pallet. Only catch is you have to drop off and pick up the rims from their depot. But if cheap is your aim it can't be done any cheaper than that.

Ok, found the details anyway. Their melbourne contact details are:

19-21, Link Road, Brooklyn, ph: (03) 9314 4877

and in Sydney:

Scott's Transport 202 - 214 Milperra Road Revesby, NSW ph. (02) 9773 3355

Your rims are ugly anyway, you don't want them...  

But at least they're nicer than Chris's ones :spew:

:)

I prefer to be called ugly then WRXBOY... :Oops: Note to self : Gold was a bad move :throwup:

... i want to be like Steve, got one of his turbos, half the driven wheels he has, and now got lookalike wheels :cheers:

..and thanks mmmGTIR

p.s. Scott's transport told me they don't do small or personal items.

The bar stewards. They've done it for me a few times now. Wheels (a couple of times) and a cat back exhaust once too.

hmmm. I *may* have given them the impression that it was a business thing though. But I sure didn't supply any ABN or anything and I paid in cash.

I posted a set to melb not long ago, about $70 from memory....just get big box :D

The Post Office generally wont accept anything over a certain girth. Can't think of it off the top of my head but it's listed on their site.

I just had to pick up an exhaust system from the post office, a "trainee" accepted it for delivery then the postmaster there had a hissy fit and handed it back. At first they said anything with a dimension larger than 150cm is too big, then he said 100cm....

Need to find a courier asap... if all else fails I'll TNT the sucker.

Still doesn't change the fact that your rims are horrid. Ever wonder why no-one out here has them?

Whose rims...mine, your kidding right, they rule... i like to experiment with colours :P

Scotts wont touch them, but just founf a place called Vic Valley couriers that will do it for $60, an acquanitance (i have no friends because my wheels im told are lame:Oops: ) has used them without probs.

Since they are so ugly you are probably right to wheel them out and leave them on the curb unitlt hey get picked up, they wont get stolen, but their ghastly appearance might drop real estate prices in your streer :Oops:

Yeah, Andrew's rims are the shockers. I can't comment on yours Troy cause Steve's got them too... although now they are the RVR rims. Go the Spastic Van!

Might look different on the car though, have to wait and see. If I'm bored I'll put them on my car :P

    • 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.
