Differences Between R33 And R34 Clutch Line

What exactly is the difference between a R33 GTST and R34 GTT clutch line?

I know the gearbox uses a different slave cylinder due to the push/pull clutch difference (maybe the master is different?). But with an aftermarket braided clutch line that simply is a certain length with a fitting on each end, would there be a difference?

The length of the line would have to be the same so it is simply the fittings that I need to know about. The master cylinder would most likely use the same fitting between the models so really it comes down to the slave cylinder.

Does any one know if the fittings are the same? For reference here is a picture of the braided clutch line on a R33 GTST.

Reason I want to know is that Hel do not make a clutch line for the GTT as they have never seen one, however I am sure the GTST one would have to fit.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Phil

Can't imagine them using a different sized thread. I think the R34 GTT is pull-type clutch so the length would probably be different as the slave cylinder goes on the other side of the clutch fork hole.

Hmm interesting. When you say the other side of the clutch fork hole, where exactly is that?

I looked on Just Jap's website and this is the GTST one

So it still bolts onto the same location? Therefore the line would only be marginally different in length?

As far as I know the pull type slave actually pushes the fork in the other direction (from rear towards the front meaning the fork pulls the clutch to release and doesn't push). So the slave cylinder is mounted at the rear of the hole that the fork protrudes from. It uses different holes to bolt up, possibly already blanked bosses present on non pull type boxes?

Looks to me like the R34 clutch line would have to be longer. Going by the picture on Just Jap it looks like the thread is on on the rear side of that too.

      Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Bugger "making it look stock". I put one conventional internally fused Hella relay behind each globe. I just pulled the plugs off the back of the globes and built new loom segments with male and female plug parts to match up to the original loom and the globe, and used the original power wires to each globe coming from the switch through the original loom plug to trigger the relays. Ran a big fat (also separately fused) power wire across the front of the car to feed all the relays. It's as ugly as f**k, but it is wedged down between the headlight and battery on the RHS and the airbox and headlight on the LHS, and no-one ever looks in my engine bay, and on the odd occasion that they do I simply give no f**ks for what they think. Fully reversible - not that you'd ever want to. For f**k's sake. It's a Skyline. They made million of the bloody things. We've been crashing them into roadside furniture for 30 years now. There is a negative side effect to putting relays on the headlights. The coil current is too little to properly clean the contacts in the switches and they get blacked up and you have to open them up every couple of years and clean them manually. I have 25 years of experience on this point.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I was poking through the R34 wiring diagrams vs R33 and noticed that the R34 has proper headlight relays while the R33 is like the R32 and sends full headlight power through the headlight switch. I'm not afraid of wiring but I really would like to do this in a way that looks OEM (clipping into open positions on the OEM relay box) and also unlike the factory wiring which interlocks the high beam and low beam on the halogen series 1 GTR headlights I want to make it such that turning on the high beams keeps the low beams on as well. Any advice on how to locate the specific connectors + crimp terminals + relays I need? I was thinking one NO relay for low beams and another for combined high + low running off the factory high beam headlight connector. I don't really want to splice into a crusty old probably discontinued factory harness so fully reversible is my goal here.

      Pretty sure they run the same engine as the Q50 hybrid which specifies 95 RON.  I ran 98 in mine for a while, but it made no difference in performance or economy, so I have been using 95 for the last few years.  I have never hit 6.0L/100km, but have returned mid to high 6 on the highway.  Being a hybrid, fuel economy is a lot more dependant on how you drive it.  At 110km/h, mine never goes into EV mode on the highway, so returns closer to 7.5L/100. urban driving can return low 8s if you are careful or over 10 if you are a bit more enthusiastic on the throttle.

      About a quarter of what you want to do. It's only R7R, not R&dismantle&replaceparts&reassemble&R. ? It is stock. I already told you, you will NOT have broken those. It's f**king 4th gear for Christ's sake. You just chipped the teeth off.
