I am wanting for my r32 to get off the boat, but last night was shattered to see a HSV sedan 260kw version totally smash an r32 gtst in a drag.

The r32 was man, had exhaust, could see front mount, and boost gauge. the HSV also manual but looked stock. They both tried as they both skidded on take off and reved the @##4 out of it.

Should this be happening?

In the RB25DET i have no problems ripping down HSV's with the 285 badges on the sides. They will always get the head start because of our buddy turbo lag but then the main concentration is to keep traction. To beat a HSV your power has to be above 200Kw otherwise you stand no chance.

hehe, well they did say "Reason why god created turbo lag, was to give V8s a chance"

Thanks for stories and comments lol.

Knew r32 was never going to be racing menace but hey just something about the guys in commos where I'd love to be able to beat them in a 15k car compared to 90k or whatever they are.

Sorry didn't see if r32 driver was p plate driver or not - but sounded like he left second gear on the road - it crunched in pretty hard!

rookie or rich i guess.

    • 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.
