hello i survived my job interview :) i probably find out this arvo

My friend was racing me in her Hyundai Excel last night - was so funny - she gets so determined its like the "little engine that thought it could" so i stopped in the middle of tonkin hwy waited for her to catch up and get in front of me and then floored it to 150km and she was so determined to keep it up. Funniest thing a Skyline and a Hyundai Excel racing down Tonkin ..... bit of an odd couple.

Paul warned me not to thrash my car ..... now im having trouble getting it started :) It wont tick over and at the slightest sign of life i have to stick the boot into the accelerator to get it going.

Thanks Lee ..... i feel confident but still they might think im overexperienced. But it would be cool cos i really want to get into the events department there ..... you think the Turf Club also does the Ministry of Sound and Car Events at Belmont Park :) Only bad thing is i would have to work New Years Day.

thanks Aidwin ..... im thinking of putting dual gauge pillar in there cos they look spunky! Just need a boost gauge ..... and whats another good gauge to have?

Ouch has PM's me he's interested in selling his zorst system cos its too loud and he's interested more in stereo ... so i wanna have a look at that cos it sounds like exactly what i need. I see all my funds going into my car at the moment. Rep has given me some really good ideas too.

Yeah it is unusal and worrying that my car isnt starting first go - sometimes it starts fine but lately its getting worse n worse and i dont want to damage it but starting it the way i have.

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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
