When using the car in triptonic usually when giving the car some boost it will down shift back down from 2nd to first when I’m already going at like 50 km/h anyone idea why? Shits pretty consistent think my oem turbo is fried cause of this….imagine boosting from 1st to 2nd then it shits itself and drops to 1 ? That’s unhealthy as for the drive line. Any ideas

That was a bit hard to follow. You are saying when you floor it in 2nd it shifts down to 1st and that is a concern? What are the revs in 1st when that happens, and at what revs does it shift up to 2nd again?

Boosting from 1-2 if I carry on flat footing it it will jump back to 1st gear while I’m boosting it and about to go to the next gear up!  The concern is it’s jumping down to first gear for no reason when I’ve already maxed out on that gear I should be on 3rd gear but it jumps to 1st and my revs going shooting to redline.

Does this sound like.....kickdown?

Just looked up kickdown. It seems like it’s trying to do that but when it happens I’m already at 7000 rpm so why would it do that. Plus does kickdown work in triptonic mode ?

      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.
