After a few drunken crusades between James (director of B.E.S.T Performance) and myself, we agreed on acquiring a new project/toy. Our ideal car was a Nissan Skyline R32. So after sobering up I started to scan the car forums for the perfect base for us to start with. So after a week or so we found one that we thought was the ONE… she is currently called PROJECT B.E.S.T

So Bec (my partner) and I went for a drive down to Boganbar (past tweed heads) to have a look at the car in question. Once I saw the car it was a done deal.

Shes gona be punished around the track in both circuit and drifting, and she will enjoy some straight line fun too...

So the car got towed back to the workshop on the following Monday.

This is what she looked like when we picked her up…

This is how she looks after James and I spent 3 hours stripping her bare….

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

      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.

      A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.

      Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.

      Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.

      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?
