ok guys, while i'm doing my rb30 conversion i'm putting my new cooler on, firstly i just wanna know is this how it should be mounted? Secondly i want to keep the standard route for the cooler piping for the stealth look so the outlet on the drivers side needs the 180 degree pipe but i can't see where its going to go! the only place i can see to put it is under the cooler but won't it hang below my standard type m spec front bar, which i don't want? And lastly has anyone been able to keep/relocate they're spot lights on there 32 after putting a cooler on as i couldn't see how i could keep them.

You saw my Stagea yesterday at the dynoshop - thats got a front mount with return feed to the standard holes in the 'airbox' side of the engine bay.

With the 'dohnut 180degree pipe' maybe install at an angle going under the engine as such, in lieu of straight down.

Im still able to use the spotlights, for photos see Stagea section "the intercooler thread".

I was able to keep my fog lights when i installed the intercooler. I just modifed the brackets for the lights a little, ie cut off the bottom section and mounted the pipes hard up against the lights. There is a tiny bit of overhang, but its a standard bar. Dont know how your going to get the pipe running under it back to the stock pipe though, maybe offset the pipe so that it runs behind the intercooler and back to the origional pipe.

    • 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
