K. Thanks . I was thinking worse cause scenario i will just make the reducers up out of stainless. As its what i do for a living .. But i honestly really can't be stuffed. That is unless they are like $20.00 each :)

Any ideas what the piping is called ? I rang blackwoods and they have no idea ..

Will the standard grade 304 stainless clamps be strong enough or will they just blow the pipes ?

K cool . I have ordered the reducers from modyourcar because to do it properly with stainless i would have to use some 3 inch hose as well and the guy were i got my hose from sells it by the foot and at $70 a foot how bout no :rofl: At $39 a pop at least this way i know it will work with out any problems ( hopefully anyway :) )

I got the 2.5 inch pipe though $50 a foot or 300 mm . Got some really beefy stainless hose clamps for $4 ea too from a guy at harvey hose supplies in bunbury.

Thanks for the response guys

I rang up all bends in osborne park to get some stainless bends sorted right ... then they said they have them in stock so i got a mate to go pick them up. He has no idea when it comes to steel so he showed them what i wrote to him to pick up. I said stainless and they gave him mild steel :(

I think it will be too much effort now to get it sorted as i am in busso and all bends are in osborne park :D So now i gather i will have to have mild steel piping after all ;)

thats life i suppose.

    • 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.
