someone who has one might be able to answer, you never hear someone with a covercraft say they are anything but quality though

not sure how much the autotechnica ones are but i normally find their products pretty average and as with most things its a case of you get what you pay for

Japanese History Check do take a while to respond, but I don't think it's entirely their fault. I believe to get the info they need it requires some action from the Japanese department of transport (and if it's anything like ours... Enough said). Either way I've used them a few times and they've been an excellent help.

I've tried to follow this thread as best I can but I'm a little lost. Are you looking to buy the $45k car in the ACT? Great price provided it hasn't had any damage. If it has, and that's what you're in the market for, you can import some 'R' grade cars with minor accident history for less than what he's asking. Use a good importer to guide you of course. Just a thought... Might be worth considering.

I won't be paying 45 and I'll reserve judgement on it til I've seen it.

For the initial agreed price, apparent condition based on pics, and the parts fitted, I think it represents quite good value given where some think this market is headed.

See how it looks on Monday.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
