I wouldn't stress about it. so long as the fuel regulator is hooked up no probs. Use it for your boost gauge.

Thanks for reply ill be using it for my aftermarket boost gauge if its an extra vac line. Hopefully this helps out someone else with the same issue.

Sorry i thought you were wondering what it was for and wanted to know what went there originally. My mistake. Didnt realise you wanted to know what you can use it for.

No stress champ, Thanks for all the replies =), if anyone thinks it should be used for something else let me know. Going to be used as a vacuum feed for my boost gauge at this stage.

Hey mate. Didnt read through the whole thread so sorry if its been answered.

My R33 has that too. When i bought it, it just had a blanking rubber thing off it. Mine is a 1998 Model, and have only seen them on these so far too.

Seems like it was just some random extra nipple added for some unkown reason.

I ripped off the blank and use it for my boost gauge feed too. So your all good, nothing has been left off :)

If you look closely, you'll see it there with the hose running off to the Apexi sensor on the fusebox.

Thank you exactly the answer i was looking for, My engine is out of a 1998 S2 GTS-T, hence why it has the same nipple. nice engine bay btw ;)

my old 1998 R33 GTS-t S2 had the same nipple, I hooked up my Apexi Power FC MAP sensor to it.

Thanks for the reply =) helped out as well i now know it can be used for different applications.

ill most likely hook it up to my boost controller. I hope this thread helps someone else with the same issue.

Thank you to everyone for replying and trying to help out.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      It still combines inches with mm, especially when you have .5 inches involved, and mm and inches that can go in either direction. This would give a clear idea on both sides of the rim, right away, with no arithmetic. Even better if somebody gives you the dimensions of the arch of multiple cars. i.e GTR may be 125mm, a A80 Supra may be 117mm, or something along those lines. Yes, you can 'know' that going from a 10in rim to a 10.5in rim with the same offset moves both sides about 6mm, but you still have to 'know' that and do the math. Often it's combined. People are going from 9.5 +27 to 10.5 +15. You may do the math to know it, but if it was going from (I had to go look it up to be sure) 241mm/2 - 27 - 93.5mm from the center line to (more math) 266/2 - 15 (118mm) from the center line. Versus 93mm vs 118mm. It's right there. If you know you have a GTT with 100mm guards you can see right away that one is close to flush and the other absolutely won't work. And when someone says "Oh the GTR is 120mm" suddenly you see that the 10.5 +15 is about perfect. (or you go and buy rims with approximately 118mm outward guard space) I think it's safe to say that given one of the most common questions in all modified cars is "How do offsets work" and "How do I know if wheels will fit on my car" that this would be much simpler... Of course, nothing will really change and nobody is going to remanufacture wheels and ditch inches and offset based on this conversation :p We'll all go "18x9+30 will line up pretty close to the guards for a R34 GTT (84mm)" but 'pretty close' is still not really defined (it is now!) and if you really care you still have go measure. Yes it depends on camber and height and dynamic movement, but so do all wheels no matter what you measure it for.

      But offsets are simple numbers. 8" wheel? Call it 200mm, near enough. +35 offset? OK, so that means the hub face is that far out from the wheel centreline. Which is 2s of mental arithmetic to get to 65mm to outer edge and 135mm to inner. It's hardly any more effort for any other wheel width or offset. As I said, I just close my eyes and can see a picture of the wheel when given the width and offset. That wouldn't help me trust that a marginal fitment would actually go in and clear everything, any more than the supposedly simple numbers you're talking about. I dunno. Maybe I just automatically do numbers.

      Sure! But you at least have simple numbers instead of 8.5 inches +/mm, relative to your current rims you do maths with as well, and/or compare with OEM diameter, which you also need to know/research/confirm..

      Uniclutch install vid, RB Track edition.   Highlight reel is very drive able, not noisy but still heavy with the clutch master he has.
