At the risk of actually helping one of these looks pretty handy. I haven’t had to use one because I am strong and can do it with my fingers.

Seen those, does look handy.

I have a mate around the corner who has all the big 3/4" gear so I will just borrow that from him, throw a cheater extension on if needed. Not looking to buy all new gear to replace $5 seal.

I would say she's smarter than me for sure, but then she did end up with me... go figure. 

Smarter girls always end up with morons like us, easier to control..

My missus is at least 10 times smarter than me, I even spell Mrs like a bogan due to my limited vocabulary

I reckon it comes down to lack of confidence and lower standards.

Society makes them think they are less than they are, so they settle for spuds like us :D

This got deep... 

nah I'm just more fun than the smarter guys, also I have a larger cock lol

 

anyhow, more SR photos :)

Got back from 10 days up north, was great, serviced missus car and sorted some house projects then decided to get back to work on the cruiser, f**king lol hilarity ensued. 

Couldn't get that balancer bolt off and borrowed a 3/4" breaker and extension. Had seen people have success bolting a chain to the front of the balancer in the 2 holes there for the Toyota SST and wrapping it around the frame to hold it still, ended up snapping a high tensile bolt off IN the balancer lol. I was lifting the engine off its mounts and the car was lifting up off its suspension, tried smashing bar with hammer also to shock it, no luck.

Couldn't believe it so had a chuckle and have chucked in the towel as it'll be a rattle gun job, radiator out etc and I just cannot be f**ked. Will take a workshop who can also roady it (if I can get farmer rego for it) so I can just get on with life.

New pulley's in, new rear brake proportioning valve in, brakes all bled and car is all buttoned back up ready to drive into town for someone else to deal with it. 

Gonna make an effort to get that engine moving soon too plus I got back on a dirt bike for the first time in years while on holiday which made me want one again =\

Someone else can do that, I took a look at the radiator, auto trans cooler, bull bar in the way of all that and thought, f**k no. 

I've got a pool to clean every f**king day now so now time for cars lol

Thought I'd whip the rotors off to have them skimmed as there's a slight vibration under light braking, apparently due to an emergency braking situation on the trip down here. 

Quickly realised that means dismantling half the hub and requires a 54mm socket and just put the wheels back on and left it lol

Swapped the rear springs over to a set that matches the front so the ride height is now even/a touch higher in the rear, adjusted the height of the rear brake proportioning valve rod height also. Managed to get 2 of my fingers caught in the spring during the process, had a mild panic moment as I tried to find an angle to get leverage with the breaker to get them free. Quite tender for a few days lol

Booked for Monday to have that balancer removed/bolt extracted, and oil pump housing seal replaced then I'll look at getting a roady and registered so we can go on some adventures.

My fault for short cutting the job, I could've undone all the suspension arms, but I just undid the shocks then had the missus stand on the hub to give the extra clearance. 

I must admit I have lost a lot of interest in cars as well as heaps of other things. Maybe I'm not going to live that long and this is my midlife crisis lol

Prompted to update as it's round 1 of the new season and I'm not even at the track let alone competing.

  • Left my job on Monday, had been a long time coming since the business changed owners in August, have no job to jump to but looks like I have a few opportunities available anyway, fingers crossed.
  • If I do pickup work quickly, that will work out well as I had been at my last job a long time and negotiated a a decent exit so will have some coin left over to ship the engine off. 
  • Got Landcruiser roadied and registered as I had to give back my work car. God damn does it smash fuel lol
  • Went to awards night, took my prize. Drank way too much, great night out but paid dearly the day after :D
  • That's not my ugly phone.
  • Thinking as part of the refresh of the car I might upgrade the cage so it's eligible for ore serious events and maybe some door to door racing.

Not sure about classes as I haven't really looked, I know I could do the Pedders sprints also but I have a heap going on around the whole employment thing so I'm kind of busy at the moment. 

Honestly, I'd be surprised if I made a couple events this year. It's too far down the priority list.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
