Hi all,

I was hoping to get some ideas around deleting my antenna. I was getting rust around the antenna and I've never used the radio, so it's time to go! 

My current thoughts are, clean up the rust, then either get a fabricator to weld in a metal plate for a factory finish, or to turn up a 50mm or so plate and either use an o-ring or seam sealer and bolt it down (similar to the common rear wiper delete kits).

Does anyone else have any ideas? 

I've attached a photo of the rust situation.

There should be rubber plug thingies you can shove in there (after you've treated the rust). Not as good looking but a quick fix.

I did a bit of google-fu and couldn't find anything that would fit :( 

Not being a round hole and being wider then the average wiper/antenna delete kit is making things hard.

It was my first thought but I just didn't know how much it was actually going to cost to get done. 

But yes, I'm glad it's getting done properly. Should look good in a few years time when I finally get around to respraying the whole car lol.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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?

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
