no probs Micko - glad u both had a good time :) hope me and my friends didnt scare her :D

Ken my last job was 19K and i was miserable in that the 35K makes a job so much more bearable - its not sooo mucht he job but the environment - hehe but revenge is mine - my supervisor was told he had to go down from a level 6 to a level 2 - the same level as me hehe - actually as of june 30 they pretty much have all new staff in that place - that will probably count me as gone as well

Yep Ken, got the mines ecu in. Was using the stocker before that though.

Should have the car on the dyno Wed night if steve can fit me in so we can see what the a/f ratio is like.

Car goes pretty good now methinks. Worth having the aftermarket dial in the car now;)

In that case , theres the problem. I would say the fuel ratio will be a bit rich as the japs like a lot of fuel and timing.

Cheers

I owned 2 businesses ( wrecking and Driver Training )

Made some SERIOUS money but the satisfaction wasn't there after a while.

Am working in a mates shop on the tools earning less than you but am happy , no stress, no employees , no aggro.

Life is good atm and I enjoy my time talking about cars again with people who like them for what they are and not a source of making money out of.

Cheers

good for u ken :D

brave wish i could be like that but atm i need the money and not really sure if i want to do anything else maybe if work was more demanding of my time and not so boring i would feel different.

but you've made money ken :D if it wasnt for that u wouldnt have the lifestyle and the ability to downgrade the job.

I havent made any money really - havent been able to acquire investments but when i get older i'll probably be able to do the same but for now its boring old work for me.

    • 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.
