When the bolt has sheared and the end of it is flush more or less like that I never ever try drilling or use those garbage ez outs. I pull out my mig welder and a hex nut and weld it on top of the bolt and simply unscrew it.

In the maintime, it's also the perfect opportunity to check rear main seal, pilot bearing and swap the Oem Flywheel with an Nismo super coppermix single plate and off course replace the pivot ball.😁

Benny, Once it’s all back to factory condition and running nicely, be great to see it do some laps of eastern creek and a couple of passes down the new drag strip to see what the actual performance levels of a stock GTR would have been back in the day. A benchmark of sorts so those guys who have one and are modifying it would have an idea of the base starting level. Also, just be nice to hear it being driven with passion 👌

I have always wondered how the awd worked in one of these skylines very interesting. So when they talk of having a 60 rear wheel 40 front wheel split is that just altering the hydraulic pressure to the front somehow? Is it actually adjustable?

Would You consider doing a video on tools? Not like "best tools on planet" clickbait shit, but something along the lines "wished I got this sooner" and include cheap stuff that we sometimes overlook and skip saying that a hoist will change Your life, everyone knows that xD For me it would be long wrenches like You use here for driveshaft, quality vise, too many jack stands, bootle jack or spare jack for odd jobs, basic bearing pullers, flat ended levers to pry shit apart and forks for ball joints, basic brake line kit. 4 last things I borrowed from my great friend more times than I should, while all of that is like just 100$ here for medium quality tools that will get You by.

How is the price of a GTR clutch in comparison to a 2WD clutch on a similar car? Love the T shirt!

Afaik it’s the same as the R33 GTST clutch as it’s push type. Approx $380 so pretty fair price wise.

Weld a nut to the broken bolt. The heat will loosen it and the nut gives you more purchase than an easy out. Heaps quicker and easier all round

Was snapped flush, didn’t want to overheat the alloy nose plate .

It can still be done and the alloy usually sucks the heat away quick enough but either way works in the end
