Well.....the end of an era, she's sold.......

For the last year and a half i've met some amazing people through this red beast, there have been some great cruises and BBQ's, some fantaqstic nights at trivia (most noteably my feeble attempts to get Becky to notice me) some great jokes about my alleged sexuality and colour chioce in my clothes (pink is still cool i don't care what you say) but more importantly some great talks with different members of a wonderfull group of people.

As far as the new owner goes......He's a great guy, the I.T. Manager at my work and if he decides to join and come out with us you'll all like him (or else!) :lol:

Back on topic,

So this is a thankyou to all of the people that made this car special to me, the car itself can be replaced but the incredible people that i met (and spend my tuesday nights with) cannot. Your an amazing group that i'm proud to call myself a part of (although i'll be damned if i pay the $50 joining fee) :lol:

Thankyou to everyone, we truly are an amazing community, so heres to many more years of winding up the boost, hitting the tarmac for a cruise and a BBQ and enjoying each others company.

Thankyou

Andrew :P aka: Veilside R33 :) ..........Aka: Diahatsu R33 :lol:

I,for one,am gonna miss that car. It's just me,gettin' all misty eyed,when I say some things just go together:Beer and hangovers,the inevitability of death and taxes,Skylines and good times,KY jelly and...oh,sorry.Where was I?Oh,and Andrew,pink shirts and the R33. Still,onwards and upwards(and back and forth if we're all good Churchgoers,LOL)-maybe a Nur Spec R34 will take A.'s mind off his loss...

Thanks for the good words!

Hi all, and yes I am the proud new owner of this wonderful car.

I feel bad for taking it off Andrew's hands! And I can only guess how much you're gonna miss it mate! but I'll look after her for you. ;)

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

      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.

      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?
