hey guys, ive tried looking for a picture on how to put back the stock vaccums back into the solenoid. anyone got a pic of it?..

for an r33 gtst series II if it makes a difference.. it would help heaps :)

ive tried looking on search but all the pictures have been deleted.

thanks again

Should be pretty basic if you have the original parts.

Put the T-piece back in where the other solenoid was if electronic controller.

Or if just the wastegate actuator holding boost, cut the rubber line between the intake nipple and wastgate actuator and put the T-pice in there.

The end of the T-piece needs to feed a line into the bottom nipple of the original solenoid.

The top of the solenoid should then feedback to a nipple just after the afm i think.

That's it!

Might have the top and bottom nipples mixed up though

(I think I've used the word 'nipple' too many times :) )

The solenoid acts like a bleed valve boost controller.

Bleeding off some air to fool the wastegate actuator to raise the boost.

A turbosmart bleed valve lets the air go staright out into the engine bay but the bled off air from the standard solenoid gets fed back into the intake pipe just after the AFM. Probably for meeting Jap/Aus emmission standards and all that crap. Just follow it down and you will see.

with mine, the workshop re-connected it so that the original t-piece pipe goes into the outlet(horizontal one) of the bleed valve(same as above) and the other connector which i assume is the intake(vertical one in line with the screw) is pluged to nothing. does this sound right? i dont see how it could work as from my understanding the air passes through the bottom of the bleed valve, gets controled by the bearing and spring and exits out the side into the actuator.

they said its set to 11psi. car makes 199.6kw first ever dyno tune in shoot out mode with adjustable exhaust cam pulley, r34 smic full exhaust, arc induction box and exedy flywheel. seems abit too high for me to believe. stock guage reads 7 or just below that. how can i tell if im running free boost? i think its time for me to get a boost guage..ha.

what do you guys think of my bleed valve setup?

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
