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.

    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
    • You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though. 
    • Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?
    • It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!
    • As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
