Been searching around and cant really find much information, basically i just replaced my 3" zorst to something a little better but my muffler is almost hollow after 10years of use, and has an annoying tinny noise on idle

Anyone know the prices etc for getting a muffler re-insulated?

Will be calling around for quotes today

cheers

I thought I'd reply for ya mate since no one else will!

I've actually got the same prob! mines bit old too and is very tinny.

I didn't know you could get them re-insulated though!? Cause I like the one I have, don't want to change it find the new one is crap!

I got quoted about $300 for a new muffler, nice looking but not sure if I'll do it.

I might ring around to see if anyone re-insulates now. I'll keep you posted if I find out.

We are in different states but at least I can give you a price I get quoted.

Good luck!

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.

      A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.

      Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.

      Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
