Based on gear ratios, I worked out the top speed of a R33 GTS25t to be ~270kmh. This is assuming the car has enough power to push it along, so probably not applicable to a completly stock car. I'd imagine it could do 240kmh comfortably stock.

I hear that 5 speed GTRs can do 240kmh in 4th gear, now thats some long legs.

I've done 260km/h @5500 rpm in 5th in my R33 GTR with stock gearbox. I slowed coz I didn't know the road too well so pushing it further wasn't a good idea.

I reckon it's got the go for 300km/h but needs a fair bit of straight road and a long braking area.

wholly 5h1T! thats bloody fast. i thought my brothers friend was insane for going 270kms on his motorbike.

On a cold night I had the needle just past the resettable odometer on my R32. I'd had the car not even a few weeks from Japan and it just had a cat-back fitted, however this did take quite a run up to achieve! The lines on the private road just looked like one big white one at speed. I slowed as soon as I saw tailights in front. Can do 180 in 4th before rear starts hopping, urging me to grab 5th.

I have this thing, after I run someone or do a silly speed my right foot goes all jumpy and shakey and I have to either stop and walk on it or just mash it into the firewall to keep it still, any one else get this?

Now you all know my darkest secret.

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

      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:

      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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
