aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

here is some shelby poetry...........

My friend is a poet...

tehehehehe *shucks* I am not a poet, merely an admirer of a masterpiece created in the time where cars were dangereous and sex was safe - by a team with vision, something ford has never encountered ever since. Aerodinamics -_wind-tunnels in mind, sleek, elegant and perfect 50/50 balance to go around corners. Weight - completely different monocoque construction - same as today's F1 cars - first ever, very light and 3 times as strong and finally POWER.... full aluminium 7.4 litre (light) with enought horsepower to tow Greg Norman's boat, not to mention torque - because there is no substitute for cubic inches and at 427 cubic inch this baby had about 700 Nm of torque. Until today every Chev owner has only been able to dream and even the R/T Viper only begins to scratch the surface with the 6 Litre V10 - fourty years later. *sniff* this is nostalgic stuff.....

had stuff to dooo

anyone know who drives a white R33 with a big ricey FastLane sticker on the rear window ..... saw it today with a Celica with number plates "docking" in pursuit.

Well looks like we finaly hear something bad about steve at SST.

Not gonna go into the details but Gradenko is not a happy chappy. Basically he told steve to pull something out and send it to some other guys to fix it under warranty as it was only out last month and they guarentee their work.

Steve palms it off to another guy because hes busy or couldnt be bothered and the other guy passes it on to the warranty place which doesnt know its under warranty and charges the second guy for the work.

He goes back to pick it up this morn and finds hes been charged just cause steve had a communication breakdown and/or couldnt be bothered. So an extra $200 on the bill for something he could have done him self but didnt want the car off the road for 4days. Also both steve and the guy he palmed it to are now saying its not their problem. Real nice.

I know there are 2 sides to every story but this side dont sound too good.

    • 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.
