Hey Guys

Im having Issues with my Skyline , when im in high rev's and i put my car from 3rd to 4th gear it crunches or from 5th to 4th so basically my 4th gear is rooted.

Anyways i need a honest mechanic that does repairs on gear boxes

Western Suburbs area would be convenient.

If anyone knows of a mechanic it would be greatly appreciated if you could forward their details

Thanks :Oops:

yeah ill do that striaght away

but i just dont understand why its only happening in Gear 4

just wondering where i can get Redline Lightweight Shockproof from?

happens to a lot of the Skyline boxes (different gears not just 4th). Mine struggles to get into 1st when stationary but other than that it's fine.

you can get redline shockproof from Unique Autosports :cheers:http://www.nismo.com.au/

I had the same problem in my R33 GTSt.

It got pretty bad one night at a street meet. Every run it would crunch slightly going into 4th no matter how much clutch I had in.

Went into Unique Autosports a couple of weeks later to get Redline stuff put into the diff and gearbox and I can't believe how smoother it is, gears go in so smooth, feels brand new.

After you change the oil if it is still crunchy dont worry about it too much, it is very common and driving normally it shouldnt be too annoying, downshifting just double clutch if its that bad, but definetly dont go get the rebuilt just because of crucnhing, they are all like that :)

double clutch when u downshift if u cant get it into gear (google it if u dont know what it is)

but still definetly change the gbox oil...u dont have to get redline but it seems to work (more or less got rid of crunching in my gtst box) very expensive though, u get it in 3.9L bottles and its $100-120

    • 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.
