Hi guys,

I was parking by the roadside this evening and was just casually walking around my car when I noticed a small puddle of water forming on the floor. As the road was slightly sloping to one side, I realised the puddle was actually forming from underneath my car. I took a look underneath and discovered there was water dripping from underneath one of the pipes.

I took some photos and wondered if anyone here knows if I should be concerned with this leak. The pipe that I noticed was leaking is circled in red. The blue rectangle is where i took the close up shot from. This is from a R34 GT-T btw.

It seems this happened only when the engine was running, because I have left my car parked for about 2 hours now and it seems there is no more dripping of water the last i checked.

Was just wondering if I should bring it down to a workshop tomorrow to get it checked.

The water is cool when the engine was running, I've used a tissue to soak it up to make sure its water and not coolant.

I was thinking it might be the air con condensation too as but just wanted to make sure its not something else..

    • Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.
    • My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )
    • Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?
    • Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!    
    • Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
