CmR333 · 11-01-2008, 01:59 PM

damn i was wanting one to

crashtestracer · 11-05-2008, 07:16 PM

so not to bring back a HORRIBLY old thread but I have been looking for just this for about a month now think that we could re open the poll and try to get it made? cause that would be amazing and definatly worth 500 or so not that i wouldnt prefer 300 but i will pay what i have to

CmR333 · 11-05-2008, 07:28 PM

yeah same here

blu808 · 11-05-2008, 07:57 PM

yea yea. Ok. I will start working on this tomorrow for you guys.

CmR333 · 11-05-2008, 08:31 PM

woo hoo!! thanks

GWB654 · 11-05-2008, 09:03 PM

i am down for this! i was trying to look for one about two years ago but didn't see much on it! if you are going to do it i am in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mikez97 · 11-05-2008, 09:28 PM

i want oneee!

crashtestracer · 11-06-2008, 09:29 AM

do you have any idea what you are going to price them? and are you considering making them with the built in solid bushings previously sugested?

R33GTS-T · 11-06-2008, 11:03 AM

i would be down for one as well, although i would prefer if it didn't have "built-in solid bushings"

i've driven cars on the street with solid steering rack bushings, not something i would like to use on a daily basis

blu808 · 11-06-2008, 02:31 PM

Ok guys I got the green light. I need someone to donate an old rack that I can send out to the engineering department.

Also can you guys confirm that the mounting for the s chassis racks is all the same, z32 should also be the same.

Let me know

*Nismoknightska-t* · 11-06-2008, 04:28 PM

I'd give ya mine, but shipping's a biotch. Call in a few markers from the NorCal guys!

blu808 · 11-06-2008, 05:57 PM

well were shipping it to ohio anyway.

Kuzumi · 11-06-2008, 06:11 PM

once this is a go i'm up for it.

CmR333 · 11-06-2008, 07:06 PM

i would send you mine but uhh its far from a 240 rack lol

*ManoNegra* · 11-06-2008, 09:26 PM

I like the sound of it
but I'd like to try it out for at least a week
to see if it's something I'd want on a daily
yeah, unreasonable, I know.
an idea of what the price would be around?

GSXRJJordan · 11-06-2008, 11:15 PM

PM me the address and all that, I'll send them the rack out of my S13 (I'm not using it right now anyway) if I can get the first production one

I might even write a sweet review too!

blu808 · 11-06-2008, 11:29 PM

ok. they are all the same mounting right? same splines and threads too?

GSXRJJordan · 11-07-2008, 12:00 AM

I'll doublecheck, but I believe so. Got your PM, dope-sauce, I'll wait for the letter.

hotlavaflow · 11-08-2008, 05:28 AM

Glad to see this is making progress.

Looks like they're the same unit. Z32 racks are also interchangable, and the Z32 racks have quicker ratio, but that's only because the locks were moved inward.

On with the S13/S14 manual racks! Let me know where to send this biotch.

SoguRacing · 11-08-2008, 11:46 AM

so when is this coming through? i'm quite interested.

singlecamslam · 11-08-2008, 07:38 PM

looks like i'll hold off at buying a reman rack.

blu808 · 11-18-2008, 09:56 PM

Ohh yea. thats what I was suppose to be doing yesterday.

GSXRJJordan · 11-18-2008, 10:50 PM

Haha - I still havent pulled my S13 rack 'cause I haven't heard from ya. Shoot me a PM or an email (my sn @ gmail) with the infooozzzzz.

punkrico · 11-19-2008, 01:04 AM

CmR333 · 11-19-2008, 10:05 AM

wtf are you talking about? I run aluminum bushings on my rack and the steering column aluminum bushing too. No noise/harshness difference except that now it's SOLID and no slack. I run a 330mm steering wheel + reman HICAS rack 7.0 caster, power steering. Feels great, but could be better... hence my interest in this

So what's actually happening with this?

GSXRJJordan · 11-22-2008, 01:21 PM

Luke's got a lot going down with his shop at the moment - I'm waiting for him to get in touch with me about sending my rack in for engineering purposes. As soon as they have the measurements/etc they need, he'll get rolling on taking orders and makin' racks.

BoroDrifter · 11-22-2008, 01:52 PM

I need a new rack anyways. Count me in.
