Thank god it won't be 40, you're all insane..

How can any of you people live in Melbourne, be climatised to the cold and look forward to 40 deg heat? Anyway the weather channel isn't a good indicator until like the DAY before.. and even then.. where were those thunderstorms I was promised!

I don't mind a nice beach cruise on a nice day, if only there were *nice* beaches down here!!! Might have to move back to Syd :)

I'm so stealing that idea Munkeh. Pink socks it is.

yeah, leewah, i got golf on tomorrow too! Time to crank out those long drives in the heat :( Where ya playing?

Watch the coppers tho if you plan on some beach crusing. Undercover SILVER and DARK PURPLE, SS Commodores. The new models. Plus marked cars cruising as well. Lots of cops down this way on the nice hot, cruising days.

Bring on Sunday i say... there is a limit and 42 is waaay past that limit.

Watched the purple one chasing a bike on Beach Road a while back and then a very angry policeman pulling a bike that was behind me over further up the road as the first one had got away. Dont think they were even together. Then saw the silver one about 2 weeks ago having pulled a truck over in the morning rush near the Caltex on Beach Road.

      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.
