It's the gold metal line as seen in the picture that is blowing air.

that pipe should go to the blow off, somebody removed the blow off and blocked the pipe (as you can see with the 2 bolts holding a cover on it)

get a piece of HOSE and put a bolt in one end (so it seals it tight) and put the hose on that pipe.

it will fix it for you.

Haha mad spelling mistake by me FML!

Thanks for the quick reply, Yeah the blow off valve is weird aswell :S Never seen anything like it!

Haha its a blank off plate the stock bov goes there as gtscott said get some vacume hose and put a bolt in it so it is blocked off or buy a stock bov

Wait a minute youve got a 32... show me some thing please, im having trouble finding where my outside sensor for ac goes, a lot of the front was missing when i bought it.

I can take any photos of any area on mine if you need for you might find more missing/dodgy bits as you just bought the car.

The ambient air temp sensor for the climate control goes pretty much where you circled. On a factory R32 it is pressed into a hole on the bonnet catch support (the vertical strut of whicj that goes down in front of the radiator). When you have a front mount installed, assuming that the vertical strut is not butchered, then it's not smart to leave it down there as it gets hot air through the intercooler. So I just moved mine up to be behind the grille under the bonnet catch. Any combination of cable ties required is suifficient to mount it.

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
