Hi Guys

Have recently been trying to source a polyurethene Gearbox (manual) mount for my R33, I had a friend who bought one a while ago, I remember him showing me (probably about 2 years ago or around abouts). Ive talked to him about it and he swears he bought it off these forums along with a solid steering spacer (I think it was) and some drift pineapples. These parts were for his R32 but I cant seem to find where on here he got them from, nor can I find much anywhere else at all, have searched the forums, google and ebay and all I can find is a UAS Polyurethane one and the Nismo ones, Both over $200, alot more then he payed for his gearbox mout

I've also got a slightly worn D bush/mount for my front sway bar, and these are similar, the only place ive been able to find one is from the UK, which will do if I cant find them anywhere else. But i was wondering if anyone else has bought something maybe designed for a different car that is the same as the skyline sway bar bushes. I might end up pulling a bush off and taking it into pedders to try and match it but if anyone else has found a substitute or knows where I can get one it would make things alot easier.

I have found this on whiteline plus:

Sway bar Mount Front

but I measured my sway bar and it appears to be 22mm? Perhaps Ive measured the sway bar wrong, does anyone know if its 22mm or 20mm?

but anyway, I dont live near a Whiteline Plus stockist anyway so might be useless anyway

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

the solid sterring mount is available through gktech, i purchased one for 26beans from memory,i think he may do the gearbox mount also. KTS also do the mounts, as for the bushes possibly superpro through fulcrum?

Not after the steering spacer lol was just using it as extra info in case anyone remembered the trader on here :P But Thanks for that, Ill give GKTech an email, nothing on the webpage by the looks at it but cant hurt to ask.

Does KTS have a website? I havent heard of them before

And I'll see what I can find out of Fulcrum

Thanks for those suggestions, might be finally getting somewhere

Open to other suggestions as well though

Thanks

Callan

i think japaneseimportspares.com.au have kts gear if not Danny Vahoumis at japaneseperformancecentre.com.au might have some stuff, he had KTS last time i was in there. GKTech have a dealer page on nissansilvia.com also

Sweet

Thanks mate

I found that super pro make sway bar bushes for the front and rear, you just have to tell them your sway bar size, so theres a win there

Will check out those other sites you mentioned

Thanks again for that :)

hi mate, got a urethane gearbox mount assembly for sale in good condition

click here

this came off an R33 so its a direct bolt on, pm me if you're interested

btw i dont think steering spacer bush applies to R33 since its solid already, only R32s need it

Hi

Thanks for that. Yeah I only mentioned the steering spacer cause my mate bought a couple of things for his 32 from the same seller so just listed them all to see if anyone remembered who was selling them. The seller seems to have disappeared however :S

Ive just found an KTS one that I've literally just bought lol, otherwise I would have taken you up on your offer, thanks anyway but

For those looking for a gearbox mount in polyurethene then this is the link for where Im getting mine. They show a RB20/SR20 one but after emailing about R33 mounts they said they also do RB25 gearbox mounts.

Polyurethene Gearbox Mount

Thanks for the help everyone. Who knows how long I would have had to search to find these things lol

    • If you really don't want to touch anything you can try to trigger off the timing loop just to see if it's sparking semi-regularly. Don't trust it for actual timing measurements.
    • Also replace the fuel filter aswell today
    • Hey everyone, I have a r34 GTT s1, im having a problem with my skyline, ive let the car sit in the garage for the last couple of months and havent run it and ive gone to fire her up today and it cranks but doesnt fire, i have been having problems with it previously where it wouldnt start again after driving it around for a bit. It use to start fine on cold start ups but if you drove to the petrol station and fueled it up and went to go start it again, it would just crank and not fire untill you let it rest for a few hours, the car doesn't over heat it sits perfectly in the middle while driving when warmed up. Im thinking this problem has caught up maybe and now it just wont start at all. The car runs on e85, ive checked the e85 seems to be fine. I can hear the fuel priming before you go to start it and checked all my fuses and relays. List of things I replaced today - New battery - New sparkplugs - New Coolant temp sensor I was thinking about testing the CAS but from what ive seen online, if the CAS is cooked, the car will actually start up but then die instantly? as mine just doesn't fire at all. Does anyone have any idea or have encountered the same problems? thanks
    • Modern reg stuff now, they'd have a wide input range which would push through a buck converter, it would need to be able to maintain voltage for cranking conditions (sub 9V at times). Likely runs something like an internal 6V rail, and then further voltage regulators depending on which circuit/area it is feeding. Modern voltage regs, like what I'm starting a new power supply design with at work, will let me run a 5V rail output, and as long as my input is equal to or greater than 5V, I have a 5V output. Except I'm not pushing a 5V rail in our system as I don't need one, we're setting up for a 3.8V rail. Our new design will allow me 6 to 60VDC input, and everything else doesn't care, even when I start pushing a few Amp outputs.   Realistically, the voltage drop off could be caused by a few things though, one could be literally the alternator is dieing, and hence charge power is dropping, which also means on a straight hard pull you're starting to send the battery flat... (Not that likely from a single couple of gear pull if the battery was fully charged). However, having earth issues, like stray earths not connected, or someone having put a ground loop in, will see the ECU appear to end up with lower voltage "input", mainly because the "ground" is no longer equivalent to battery negative. If they're comparing the input voltage using sensory ground for example, and sensor ground is what is in that ground loop, than the sensor output voltage will actually start to be reduced, when compared to battery ground... Yeah, ground wiring design can start to be a bitch... Also voltage going weird from inductive loads not being managed properly is another real bitch... Hence, why I asked above about how everything was wired in. If OP knows, and can post all of the actual connections from the ECU pin out, as well as what wires are joined where in the loom, which grounds from the ECU have ground points and where they are etc. Would help to see if there is a ground issue. The part I'd start with though, is putting a mechanical oil pressure gauge on to confirm the theory. Otherwise the next track day when the threshold is lowered could result in another of @Duncan favourite types of jokes... Knock knocks... Pretty sure this is what @GTSBoy is also self high fiving...  Is all great that we have a decent theory... But they need to prove it before relying on it...  
    • When I worked at BlueScope Steel, we had an Ethernet network, with every switch setup with a duplicate switch. Even when looking at all the primary switches, they had duplicate links, there was then also duplicated links between the primary in section A, to the duplicate in section B. So for each location that had networking, there was 8 network links. This was all back around 2007. That setup caused sooooo many issues, as many of those links were fibre. The network guys ran everything with Spanning Tree Protocol. And then we had great joy... The FOC Transceivers were slowly dieing, but in an intermittent way. And a lot of the time as they started to die, they'd drop offline for about 30 seconds... Spanning Tree Protocol was requiring 45 seconds to "rewire" the network... And by the time it was mostly finished, it had to start again as the transceiver was back online... Queue entire production network being constantly spammed with the spanning tree protocol messages...   My god I do NOT miss working in huge environments like that!
