so thats what i did with 3 days and $36 and im quite chuffed with myself, and she'll be ready for the first of my formal runs on thursday ;)

cheaper than you think.

all that needs trimming are the door vinyls dash and seats, everything else can be done for under $150 if you know how to paint.

look at stirlo, he's just repsrayed his GTR himself for practically nothing, and it looks amazing.

Bow, scrape and grovel at the base of the 'Holts vinyl paint in a pressure pack' sacrificial dias. Bet you got that idea off Burkes Back Yard or Renovation Rescue.............lol.

Actually it looks quite clean and 'airey', a new lease of life for the line. But you'll never be a millionare if you keep spending $$$$ on Nippon's finest.

By the way, how did you go with the 'tyre saga'??? Another happy ending I hope.

ahhh shucks, thanks vielside!

Yeah bit of time and elbow goes along way, remember that most of the monkeys you pay big bucks to are no smarter than you, and theres only one depth in this pool.... sink or swim!

it can go bad but not much is undoable, I have decided to sell my car aswell and I am sure what I have done has increased the changes of selling it at a desired price.

cant wait to see you car again Vielside!

come to the jerra on tuesday, i think i'll be making regular appearances......if i can borrow your buffer i can come get it and you can see it......hint hint lol

Trident: tyre saga still umm....a saga i guess, defect was extended a futher 2 weeks and all should be fine touch wood, but its been dragged out to much. though the g/f isnt pregnant and the results came in today from her scan and there is no cancer either, so thats all good news.

    • 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.
