sw20gt no offence, but generally for a (proper) wheel alignment, especially if something is obviously wrong u should go to a specialist, bob jane and other tyre/mechanic shops are usually crap and dont do anything worthwhile!

So with this in mind, if i were you i would go to

http://www.heasmans.com.au/

excellent service, they specialise in steering etc... usually lots of expensive sports cars getting done there too.

Bob Jane at haberfield have always done fantastic work.

just because they're a "mainstream Australian business" doesn't mean they can't do good work

they use the laser alignment machine and it works well.

if they'd done shonky work in the past (in my experience) then I wouldn't reccomend them

hehe, sorry to hear Moanie! I didn't really have the trouble from them cause as you may have already know, I am male!

Sexist is no good at all!

The only reason I suggested was that they gave me a cheaper price after an aggrement was made on the phone, like I was already phone shopping for the cheapest and the receipt printed a $40 less! hehehe...

95% service 100% value

10% to female?

      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.
