Hello all Just wondering if anyone of you kind people would be willing to let go of a standard R33 GTS-t flywheel with the flywheel bolts posted to cairns for 100 bux. I had one coming but I presume he has piked out and not sent it like he said was going to. Oh well. If anyone can please let me know and will post through address via pm etc. Thanks in advance.

i heard ford falcon rims fit and also large toyotas.. could get them from a wreckers for cheap?

get a socket of the approx size of the welsh plug (cant remember the one I used) but make SURE that it is a reasonably loose fit (the welsh plugs are designed to squash in, so if the socket is a tight fit good luck getting your socket out ) General rule of them is tap them in so its square, and in far enough for the chamfer of the hole (you'll know what I mean) to be on the EDGE of the plug. A small demo below with awesome pain shop skills

think its for hicas...

im not quite sure duncan as I dont have ABS

are you bleeding the correct way? This is the way i use (may be incorrect but i have my reasons for doing so) Start bleeding from the furthest brake caliper (left rear on R33). Loosen the bleeder, make sure the bleeder hose goes upwards (so you can see bubbles much easier), slowly depress the pedal, but not to the floor as you dont wanna ruin ur master, come up slowly, allow around 1-2 seconds for the new fluid. This is to make sure that the fluid is fully lubricating the seals. Keep depressing etc until u are happy with the new fluid coming out. Hold the pedal in the depressed position, lock the bleeder nipple, pump the pedal up (relatively quick short strokes) so you have a nice and firm pedal, then hold weight on the pedal, release the bleeder so it goes down about half way, lock bleeder then move onto the next one. I think thats how I do it anyways

just to let you know. I'm 18 and have had one at fault claim (write off) one speeding fine and it costs me $3400 to insure my R33. I dont have many things to pay for and I'm an apprentice mechanic so if anything goes wrong its f**k all to fix really. Just have to pay for parts

edit: stupid post will take to PM

i think u mean rack-end? You can replace he rackends if they are bent, but most power steer places wont have listings for your car so you will probably have to take the rackend down to them and get them to match it. Hope that helps

so why didnt u just buy a GTR? out of curiousity. Seems like money is good for you.. so why gts?

hey randy.. i dunno but remember hearing that black a hard colour to do? Would u be able to gloss the bonnet black if possible? You guys are awesome thanks heaps for this

i have driven one... the handle well and rev out mad.. very nice to drive.. i'd like one if i didnt have a skyline

Hi all I was wondering if any of you could do me a huge favor. As I dont have photoshop 7 or whatever it is upto now could someone please chop the front bar i have below onto the photo of my car i have below and also paint the bonnet gloss black. I know it takes a lil time to trace around the objects as Ive dont it before I just dont have the program. Please can someone be so kind to do this for me. If you live near my I'll by ya a beer or whatever else ya into when i see ya around in town Sorry about the size of my car pic. I couldnt figure out how to de-size it and keep the ratio aspects of the picture thats how noob i am now Thanks heaps guys edit: didnt realise the price tag was on there.. if possible chop that off too hahaha thanks again

Hi all Im keen on buying a standard flywheel off someone. If they can do it for 100 bux COD posted to Cairns let me know. Thanks heaps guys

u must be talking about the bearing on the input shaft thingo.. sounds like a fairly expensive job cause the whole shaft etc has to come out and whether or not it is easy to get the bearing out would be another story.. but i havnt done one nor heard one wearing out?

i would never do it to an engine that i drive or drive in it can cause all sorts of nasty things and if you do do it run it for liek 5 secs so it wont do THAT much damage..

im sorrry but why did u spend so much on a gts??

lol i dont think so kid.. lol kid.. I was talking to the owner on thursday night and its a very mildy modded R33 RB25DET. This is coming from the horses mouth apparently. And his brother also apparently has an R33.... I dont know who to believe. But BBQ hasnt been around for a while... where did he get to?

this is sort of off topic and slightly stupid butt... if you use like a zillion cable ties on all your rubber brake hoses will it reduce the flex in the standard rubber hoses? I saw this on a skyline clutch line.. i thought it was a f**kin stupid idea but was wondering if there was actually any truth in it?

thats one damn hot car you have there dude.. *droooolz*

if its shaking through the steering sounds like suspension.. but if its coming through pedal and a sort of juddery feel then its brakes.. i think

if your engine has suffered from a ceramic wheel letting go.. I'd say you will have to rebuild the whole engine as ur engine really doesnt like ceramic dust on your big end and main bearings, rings, well.. pretty much everything.. so ive been told anyway.. forged pistons and rods time for a positive eh

umm i thought just jap were pretty good on sourcing second hand bits?

I'd like to see your compressor work after 3 and 1/2 years not doing anything... The seals are more than likely done for and will probably need the compressor to be overhauled. But good luck!
