ive had dreams where ive beaten the shit out of someone trying to steal my car - i tell ya for a chick i kick a serious amount of arse haha!! Wish i lived in clarmeont or somewhere where my car is not a big deal but in bloody high wycombe - i went to midland gate in my 88 ZX (which was a gorgeous car in really good nick for its age stunner compared to the bomb ones u see around) and i would get so many evil glares and stuff so i dont take my R33 anywhere near the place - the response in the ZX was bad enough!

haha theres a kareoke bar across from the deen? sweet me and my mate have always wanted to get xtremely pissed and go kareoke!!! Haha so it shouldnt be too hard to talk her into it. as long as nothing is said about my singing under the influence in these forums im happy haha!!

hahaha i always go um i dont car who drives mel but i would just like to point out that you're diving from my house to your houseso its better if we just take your car (hyundai excel) ooorr oh well know point taking my car its a two door (when theres a group of people) one way or another i talk my way driving to northbridge - plus cos my car is lowered it cant hack those high ris ecarparks without taking half the front spoiler off - parked in one in the city ofr an interview once and i was crying all the way down all you could hear was *ssscraaape* aghhh why dont they cater for lowered cars!!

yeah! Ahh lowering does have its disadvantages and extra costs but i love the look. Even my dad does - because its caused the rubbers to wear away and my shockies to pack it in they wanted to put springs in the front that would highten it a few mm i told my dad and he goes "no way go the second option you dont want it higher" haha which i dont - but new shcokies and the ongoing cost of replacing the rubbers should fix my problem - its funnier when you pull up to barinas and you hav eto look up to them tho haha. High rise carparks - nightmare do not even attempt!! i swear that what made my front spoiler come lose - even the slightest rises i have to be aware of. You'll see a small slope and go "no probs" then scccraaape! oops haha

hahaha bully!! so he should!

Actually 33Spec2 really anywhere! You will find out yourself as i did - things look decpetively flat even when sober - i had my car 2 weeks went into mt lawley for a friends b'day dinner because parking was so hard to find a lot of u-turns in peoples driveways were involved as soon as i went up them i heard scrape im like what tha?!! it doesnt take much of a slope you'll learn tho. I mean skyzerr said on one cruise my exhaust was low on my car and im liek nah i dont have the huge ones that most of the guys have on their cars - i didnt think too look at how low the piping was underneath til the other day - he was right it only sits about 10cms off the ground - even i was shoucked i hadnt wiped it off on something yet!!

hmm well i havent been stopped by the cops - its legal i think - its a slow as strich9s at the front but i dont know how low his exhaust piping goes either - it gave me a shock no wonder a plastic bag stuck to the exhaust and made me look like a dikhead (i explained that story yesterday) Ive never really had a close look "under" the car til yesterday and some of that stuff is pretty low - but hey the car survives - the cops havent said anything yet sooo its all good.

haha i said its as slow - sorry kym - i meant as low.

My parents have nicknamed it the go-kart because they reckon thats what your driving position in it feels like - mine you sit low etc and have to reach up for the steering wheel etc in theirs its the opposite.

u might realise it takes half an hour for me to edit these messages before i post them and even then my mistakes slip thru. im on my 6th beer if u want to know why it takes this long.

    • 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.
