Pretty much, I'm sending a container over with house stuff anyway so sending the parts won't be an issue.  Not sure if I could be bothered though to be honest..  maybe time to get out of the game.

I'll probably put the rolling body up for sale here, if it sells it sells, if not I might just have to send it over.  We'll see.

Looks like I have no choice really and I'll have to accept the bmw/eurolife.  I hope this thing sells quickly.. I'm only in the middle of a complete fuse box change over and relocation (all the fuse box wires are cut at the moment), so I'll just need to finish that and put the interior back together and get her on the market.

lol....

I kept a spreadsheet on the current shit box, total costs excludes serviceable parts (fluids, pads, filters, etc.), dyno tuning (because I tuned it myself), but still it's crept up to $90k for a shit box GTS-t.

 

Holy shit that's a bit of money.  I haven't kept track of mine and I don't even want to know, I would estimate somewhere in the mid 40's and I'd still have to spend another 15k to even get it moving (ecu, suspension, tune, a lot of an fittings, wiring etc) that doesn't include needing a paint job, new seats and all of that.  This is probably for the best, better I stop myself now than spending more on a car that's gonna make 350kw on a good day.

    • 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.
