As posted on the CC forums : Got home this afternoon after a long weekend up in Sydney. Headed up on Saturday at 7am. Went to Autosalon both days and was really awesome this year. Got in free cause work deals with the major sponsors for it so that was a plus.

Fewer cars than last year but quality has definately increased. Was well set out this year too, but lacking beatboxing/breakdancing that I really enjoyed last year. Next year will play host to modified late-model motorcycles, plus ATV's and the like, also motocross as well; which should make it a bit different for next year.

Saw Erica's beast and highly approve, is one nice subie. Also watched Stacey's DirtGarage 32 GTR on the Dyno.

As for the dyno, Nasa's black Supra built by Millenium Motorsport took out 1st in the dyno comp, pulling 610.2 rwkw. BOOBE Supra pulled 503 rwkw. A decent 355 stroker VR ute with a T51R pulled 544 rwkw. Daniel's gold ESP racing Supra managed about 470rwkw at best, he popped an intercooler pipe off on one of his first runs but had it fixed shortly after.

Took about 350 pictures and videos and will try to post them up soon.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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?

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
