Oil Filter Relocation Kit - R34 Gtt

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

So i'm planning on purchasing an oil filter relocation kit. I have seen the trust/greddy ones going around but am unsure on the quality of them as the fittings they use on the hoses are hose clamp fittings as apposed to JIC (better seal, and have been told to use if i can) and the plate/adapter that goes where your oil filter is, screws on like a filter and i have heard these apparently leak?. Just after any experiences you guys have had with these kits or any recomendations on any particular kits.

I have found this one, not sure on it tho...

Heres the greddy kit im refering to.

any help would be appreciated! :)

I brought a universal one with 19 row oil cooler. Had no leaks where the adaptor joins to the block. Only leaks on the an10 fancy fittings. Changed to speed flow an all was good.

Also. Note for r33

Needs oil filter stalk from rb30/20 for adapter to mount

Oh yeh. So I looked at the universal one u posted. That's the exact one I got but came with the cooler.

I had leaks and when I rung 999 automotive

They sent out a whole new kit for free.

So they must be cheap. Anyway. That one leaked too. So ended up getting speed flow fittings. Cost me heaps.

And the filter is a honda filter. Z79a So throw any spare skyline ones u might have away

One more thing., more chances of leaks. Hoses everywhere, they look crappy orange. Hard to mount in the correct position. I'm not sure with yours but my oil pressure gauge had to be mounted there aswell and that was a cross threaded head ache. Re tap- leaking nightmare.

I hope I've talked you out of it.

When do you change your oil? 6 months?..

Get over it and leave it. I will take you 6 months to sort all the added problems.

Mount a oil cooler if your gonna touch anything around there.

Cheers for the reply/advice! Appreciate it heaps and Yeh I'm probably going to steer clear of that one ;) what about the greddy / trust ones? Yeh I do change oil frequently.. But was interested in relocating filter to suit mods I plan on doing in the near future (forward facing plenum etc) obviously that'll affect the accessability of the filter.

Also I just recently purchased some new gauges which included oil temp and oil pressure and basically when I come to install them I figured I'll need to install them into a sandwich plate anyways so may aswell do it all together if that makes sense?

    • The two diagrams are equivalent. The R32 one is just one sheet out of about 3 showing everything in the whole car all at once. And without knowing the functionality that occurs in the modules, they are both equally opaque.
    • 8v - 2.48ms 9v - 2.15ms 10v - 1.74ms 11v - 1.41ms 12v - 1.15ms 13v - 0.99ms 14v - 0.89ms 15v - 0.82ms 16v - 0.81ms I'm running these values on my RB20 Neo with 570cc Denso R35 stock jets and it's great. Also bought a set for my Legnum VR4, love these injectors!
    • Thanks for your reply,  Those blue/green wires running to the actuator aren't attached to anything, so I'm not sure how the central locking is still working. I will have to take a good look tomorrow, I don't have the car with me. After googling it seems like a pretty common aftermarket actuator which even uses the same green/blue wires the immobiliser required. i'll test everything tomorrow and if it's working i'll melt the solder, strip it, resolder and neaten it all up with some heat shrink. I don't have to understand it if it works hahaha I just don't want a fire/ short circuit. That R32 diagram looks more like a continuity chart? Can you make sense of this form the R34 manual? 10V is probably due to very flat battery, i'll recheck as well tomorrow, I did have to jump start it haha. Thanks again!  
    • So, COM doesn't mean comms. It means common. What common itself means will depend on the type of device. For a two directional actuator (ie, one that can push and pull on the same output rod) then the common will typically just be the earth connection. There will be at least 2 other wires. If you put 12V on one of the other wires, then the actuator will push. On the other 12V wire, it will pull. Can't quite make out what is going on with the wiring of your actuator. It appears to have several wires at the actuator plug, but there only appears to be 2 wires where its loom approaches the door control module, with at least one of the others cut off. I don't know these actuators off by heart. I'd have to look at a wiring diagram for one before knowing what the wires were about, and that's despite me having to replace one in my car not all that long ago. Just not interesting enough to have dedicated memory set aside for trivia like that any more. That actuator is an aftermarket one, not the original one, which probably died and was replaced. That might require some sort of bodge job on wiring to make it work. Although nothing should justify the bodginess of the bodge job done. As to the soldering job on the door module's loom plug. Ahhahhahaha. Yes, very nasty. Again, I cant tell you what any of those wires do. You'd need to study the R34 wiring diagram (if you can find one that shows the door module). I don't think I have any. I'd have to study the R32 diagram to start to understand what mine is doing, and again, even though I've had a problem with mine for the last 25 years (where it locks the passenger door when the driver's window reaches top or bottom of travel) I'm just not interested enough to try to to work it out. So long as it's not burning down, it's fine with me. Here's the R32 GTR diagram, which, confusingly, has rear door lock actuators and window motors on it!! As you can see, unless you understand the functions of the door lock timer and the power window amplifier, you'll never be able to work out how it works just from the diagram. I don't imagine that the R34 one is any better. Hopefully an R34 aware bod can help. FWIW, the two wires that are cut and joined look like they are both power supply - so hopefully it is not fatal to join them. The 10V you measured on the cut off free end of one of them is concerning. You'd expect 12V, and it might be the reason for the bodge job joining them together.
