Hey guys.

I've been in the process of getting myself a pressure bleeder and have hit a snag with the supplier.

They are taking their sweet ass time to see which cap will fit my brake reservoir even with the dimensions and pictures that I provided.

Does anyone here have one and know what cap will fit?

I have come across one thread that said euro caps will fit (however they are threaded type not 1/4 twist)

And then others say that ford will fit (they seem to be slightly larger than mine)

Can anyone offer advice because I'm getting sick of waiting. This is for a R33 GTR

I've got to say, I've got the same issue with the SP Tools kit....don't buy it!

I bought BRAKE & CLUTCH PRESSURE BLEEDING KIT #: SP70809, and the cap they said fits does not. They later confirmed based on measurements that we need BRAKE & CLUTCH PRESSURE BLEEDING CAP - ALL HYUNDAI, MITSUBISHI, NISSAN & SUBARU #: SP70821 for 32, 34, 34 GTR, GTSt, Stagea etc

The part has been on backorder for 8 months now so I also have a useless kit. And clearly SP Tools have no interest or intention of supporting their customers.

Thanks for that Duncan.

I tried to go with a Aussie supplier and it probably was that kit you mentioned, because old mate came back to me this morning and said that they are all out of stock.

So now I am going to bite the bullet and go with the American one.

Motive power bleeder 0117.

The adapter they list is for ford/import.

Import includes what you just said, Mitsubishi, Nissan & Subaru.

I have also found someone with a 370z that has used this exact kit which worked. And as I understand, 370z has the same brake reservoir lid as us.

Fingers crossed and we will see.

Also @duncan. Does your kit have a quick release? Because you can buy just the adapter #1117 I believe from motive products to at least make your kit useful....

An update.

I received my motive power bleeder #0117 ford/import

And it all hooks up and I pressurised the reservoir with success.

So for future people wanting a tool to help them out this would be the one that fits on brake master.

OK, I finally got the SP adapter today, only 6 months after they sold the base kit. If anyone else is silly enough to wait that long the correct one for R32 GTR (and probably most skylines/stageas etc) is SP70821.

But frankly, I wont go near SP again, the service and communication was terrible. I'd take that motive power one you posted above

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
