Thanks Bradlee for your reply.

PM'd you for just a few answers before proceeding.

Thanks too Marcus. I'll see what Bradlee can do first.

But I appreciate your help as always!

I have access to buying one off Brad, but there are connection pieces missing for example the one off the hose on top of the block. Are these hard to obtain? Or shall i get aftermarket fittings?

Maybe I'll just get a new kit.

Terry I think you'll have to buy aftermarket fittings if not complete kit as pretty sure it comes as a full kit from Nismo.

You could get some fittings made up as the only thing you really see is the tank, the fittings are covered in rubber hose.

I suppose its how genuine do you want to be.

Theres a pdf with the below link that has better pics of parts.

If no luck let me know as heading back to Japan soon.

Terry given how stock your car presents now, it would be a shame to put some aftermarket fittings in - they'll stand out. Go genuine :)

Edit; and you know Marcus will sort it out for you etc too so no hassles

    • Do not ever trust ChatGPT with anything math related. They can't do math. They have no idea what it is. With enough data we can fit a decent equation in Excel, or if the available fits in Excel aren't good enough, a Matlab clone.
    • You could check/calibrate that with a thermometer, we have long glass thermometers at work which go from -10 to +150°c, they are pretty cheap too I believe,  as monkey fisted soldiers tend to break them, and getting new ones don't seem to send red flags to the people that hold the purse strings Edit: after a google they apparently cost about $80, but, digital ones seem to be much cheaper at around $40
    • I should have prefaced all of this with "I'd really like to not pull anything out of the car for this" 
    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
