I like to wave to people. I wave to people when im in Gradenkos car mostly, some people wave back thinkin " do i know that guy?" Gradenko freaks out, he dont like it much, but i guess thats why i do it. When i had the supra i waved at almost all imports and gave the "jerky jerky" sign to all the ricers.

Hmm maybe thats why i think that 30% of all cars are skylines. :confused:

yeah i always wave to Skylines ....... well ok i mainly only wave to R33's ... when they are over the other side of the road ..... when they are on my side of the road ..... then its all business :P

I get a helluva a lot of Silvias waving to me and they usually get the confuddled "do i actually know you or you just waving to me cos i drive an import" look

U gotta make sure u got the wave down too.

For the passenger u have to have ure forearm vertical and it rotates at the elbow and the fingers stay together, just like the queen. For the driver its always the ultra classy 3 fingers off the wheels stylz.

when i drove my ZX i used to get people in Z32's wave to me i felt like "ahhh im accepted" :P

haha i still get Z32 guys talk to me at the lights ...... usually just before they take off i get "Oh by the way - this isnt my girlfriends followed by a .... ;) "

Yeh i noticed that. When the traffic picks up it starts to tick u off. No1 does it on the coast roads though.

Apparently that stemmed from ye old days when there was no tempered glasss and people used to touch the windscreen so it didnt break if a rock hit it. Shockies for ure glass.

haha yeah can be a bit snobby sometimes.

But its cool when you have a bit of a run with another car then you pull up at the lights and htey'll ask you whats in it and you have a convo. Like that guy in the Pulsar .... he was such a sweety. 240rwhp on a Pulsar ..... no wonder i was eating his dust .... i was ready to march my car down to the car yard til i found out what was in it then losing didnt seem so bad.

    • 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.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
