Hi,

Does anyone by any chance have the part number for the NON-ABS BM57 brake master cylinder off a R33 gtr. Have tried searching on here and the nissan fast program but havent found anything very clear.

Cheers

Actually I am pretty sure I messed that up. 2 port for ABS 3 for no like you say.

The parts listed should be 3 port, not 2. It was my description which is wrong the part number is ok AFAIK.

Also the non ABS master cylinders are typically a size down from the ABS type. So whereas a Brembo GTR will run a 17/16" cylinder for ABS they run a 1" for non ABS. The Sumitomos are 1" & 15/16" respectively.

So my thing has a 17/16" unit which replaced a 1" unit when I changed the brakes over.

BM44 15/16" on all R33s except RB20e - 7/8" BMC - and GTR - 17/16 BM57. If you need P/N, let me know.

Are all BM57 the exact same? I bought a BM57 for my R32 and thought it would be direct fit but it's not, the fluid level sensor is on the other side and is a different wire connector.... If it were just a connector issue, I'm ok with that but if the brake bias is different between different BM57, then I'm in trouble... Maybe someone could find where to buy the connector and I'll just solder it?

The one I bought is: BM57. ABS.

The only other stamps I see: H30 and 24U20

24U20 means it's intended for R33 GTR. Bias is possibly different, but I don't think by too much, at least not enough to cause serious problems, as caliper piston and disk sizes are same for R32 and R33 brembos.

Proper BM57 for R32 would be 46010-05U02. You can just buy a connector for your current reservoir though, the plug is same for a load of cars - from B13 100NX to late Altimas.

Must be my turn to Necro a thread.

Does anyone know what Nissan part number or other alternative number /part the loom connector for the BM57 fluid level sensor is ? I have a new BCNR33 one ready to go on the 32, but would like to have the exact factory connector and reservoir as per 33 as I like the rectangular reservoir better (and its new) than the 32 round one.

I'm pretty handy with Nissan Fast, but this has me stumped and hours of trying to find out on Fast and online is really pissing me off - didn't think it would be this hard as the sensor and connector seems to be on nearly everything from R33, R34, Z33, Z34, Y61, Q60. Surely I should be able to find this online somewhere, because my Nissan dealer is shit and I bet won't be helpful at all.

The Nissan sensor it connects to is 46048-64J21 or the alternative NTK sensor is BF0062, both look like this:

No one ? Come on someone must be onto this. I'll owe you a beer or two ?

As far as I can work out it is some kind of Sumitomo connector, but stuffed if I can find it in their catalogue. This shouldn't be this hard....

You're joking right ? I work in electrical, not as easy as it seems...Auto sparkys will be the obvious choice as their suppliers like Ashdown Ingram's will be most of the time where stuff is supplied. Without a part number for the connector most of them will tell you to go away. Might have to scour the massive RS catalogue, and back to the Japanese Sumitomo catalogue with fresh eyes. Or even contact NTK direct.

Yes I can obviously get something sort of to work, but not factory fit like I want to satisfy my OCDness.

That's what I'm replacing, the factory BNR32 BM50 harness plug connector to whatever suits the different sensor. I am yet to see a Deutsch equivalent, but would love to be proven wrong  Has to suit the BM57 sensor that has flat pins, Deutsch DTM or DT won't suit they're round, and can't see a 2 pin housing anyway with the correct side locking, so it won't clip in properly. I have contacted NTK to see what connector suits the NTK74759 BF0062 fluid level sensor as used in the BM57 master cylinder reservoir.

Anyway, better get back to centre bearing replacement on the Ford Territory....

I think I have solved the conundrum of the 33 BM57 master cylinder fluid level connector. @Sneaky Peteprompted me to start looking into this again. NTK were no help - they responded with "we don't know - we just make it to the manufacturers spec" - Great help.

Quite a lot of Nissans like Patrols, Pulsars, Jukes and Infinitis use this same sensor, pretty weird to not be able to obtain it easily. Anyway I thought I'd do some digging on if any other car manufacturers use the same or similar sensor and what do you know, the Ford Fiesta 2014 - 2016 uses it. Here is the Ford sensor:

Here is the NTK sensor which is identical to the genuine Nissan sensor:

This is the Ford / Motorcraft plug available to suit the Fiesta sensor:

Genuine Ford part number is DU2Z14S411APA and the Motorcraft part number is WPT-1385. Seem to be only available overseas or on US ebay. Did find these:

https://www.ebay.com/p/217797925?iid=164568475349

I think I'm gonna order one after I double check that my 33 plug looks the same but I'm 99% on this - fingers crossed

Ok I thought I'd finally put the last nail in the coffin regarding the BM57 R33 GTR master cylinder plug. As mentioned this is quite a common plug used across heaps of cars as mentioned like the Patrols, Pulsars, Infinitis - hell I even looked at our 2001 WRX and found this:

Yes, the Subaru connector is the same. The problem is if you want a new one, Subaru or Nissan cannot get you one. Now as I referenced earlier the Ford Fiesta 2014 - 2016 appeared to be the same but even better, could actually be ordered as a spare part WPT-1385 through Ford's Motorcraft arm.

So after looking around I couldn't find it in Australia, so I ordered 2 of the Ford Motorcraft WPT-1385 connectors from the US. I am happy to report that it is indeed the exact the connector you need for conversion to the BCNR33 BM57 master cylinder and have since fitted to the 32.

I know it might be trivial to some people as you can just disconnect it and the low level brake fluid light will never come on, as the sensor contacts are open when fluid is normal and is actually normally closed when low / dry.

I'm happy now 👍

    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
    • Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
    • I had the same previously, and it really shits me. They just run off red book averages or whatever as the maximum insured, there are never good quality cars available to buy for anywhere near those prices. I don't even understand why they do it. Sure having a customer overinsure then false claim is a risk, but how often does that really happen in the world, 1%? 0.1%? On the other hand, all 10-20% above redbook listed prices and charge 10-20% higher premium, surely that is more profitable for those cockroaches
    • My take on gg2 48mm, 54mm, 58mm, and 62mm compressor map for same size compressor vs gg1 : All gg2 only outflow gg1 above 20 psi. As all g gen 2 surge line at lower left of comp map move to the right, all gg2 sacrifice spool vs same size gg1, surge line move to the right worst for 54mm gg2. So for same size compressor if you want best response, use gg1, if you want max hp at >20psi use gg2 but you will be laggier vs same size gg1. Max compressor efficiency drops to max 75% on all gg2 vs max 76%-80% of same size gg1. Iirc lower efficiency means hotter iat less dense air so lower hp at same operating point of comp map. Also curious why gg2 is mapped to lower max rpm vs same size gg1 (only 48mm size both gg1 gg2 mapped to same rpm) : 54mm gg1 165,000 rpm  vs  gg2 160,000 rpm. 58mm gg1 150,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000rpm. 62mm gg1 145,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000 rpm. If gg2 can safely spin to gg1 rpm then they can flow a bit more than as mapped. Good thing that all gg 2 interchange compressor and turbine housings with same size gg 1. So gg1 owners can buy gg2 chra only if planning to boost >20psi.
    • My stuff is all with Shannon's, granted, I don't really have imports I'm driving on the road, however, I've had multiple cars at the same time with them. Presently we have the Landcruiser on laid up cover, Sarah's Kluger on full cover, and the house insured. About 18 months ago Sarah wrote her Subaru Liberty GTB off, insured with Shannon's, and the payout, and buy back of the wreck was super quick. In 2020 we had the VF Commodore totalled in a major hailstorm. Storm was on the Saturday, I called on the Sunday and lodged it, vehicle was towed on Tuesday night, assessment team called on Wednesday to say it was a total loss and get payout details, money was in the bank on Thursday morning. Have had a few other claims both at fault, and not at fault, over the years, and never had an issue with them.   Funnily enough, they're also the cheapest insurer I find for things like Sarah's Kluger.   I will say I'm less impressed dealing with them lately around "the experience", as a lot of their staff that you deal with aren't car enthusiasts. Shannon's has a much more main stream feel ever since they decided to become "big corporate", laid a heap of staff off, and then hired a bunch of non enthusiasts. At the same time they've been making a push to be less "call us and we'll personally have someone who cares help" to "hey, this computer can do stuff for you" and are trying to get more square pegs to fit round holes. (That's just the vibe I get from them). Again, have had no issues with claims with them, but get a bit of a "less personal" feel from them.
