Hoy , don't cut my post to suit yourself !:)

Making it stay up is a little harder without correct design

is an acknowledgement that engineers are needed.

What the guts of this little post session is that we all need each other but young people these days think they all need a degree in something when a lot of them will never get a job in that field anyway.

Sometimes if you ain't got , you can still earn a good living by manual means.

true - sorry for that but that first line was begging.. :) no hard feelings at all.. i think alot of the people building the things around us.. and it does take an art.. but again, it's like anything - there's a few good ones who carry the rest of the mediocre.. i wouldn't go glamorising some guy who can weld stuff or use a spanner..

i agree with you that both professionals and trades need each other.. not sure if i agree with what you say about people not getting jobs in their fields - unless you're talking about arts degrees... sorry - got a pet hate of those "do my 5 years of study for my degree to get nowhere" people.. no offense meant to any of you who may be this type of person.. :)

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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?

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
