Haha that's hilarious!

Are you taking your own car to the track day? My 33 runs out of rego this Tuesday so I won't be taking it, but I'll keep an eye out for your car :thumbsup:

Hmmm... Start it up and jiggle every electrical connection under the bonnet and see if you can get it to happen again.

AFMs, Ignitor, CAS, O2, Coolant Sensor, injectors etc... If nothing then check Fuel system. ie. Pump is ok? Electrical Plug, Filter, Got Petrol in tank?

Just food for thought Eric to start with.

When I put a Bosch 044 in the 33 I earthed out the pump wires so the pump always ran at full capacity rather than dropping to low speed at idle etc.

It Definitely ran stronger.

If you still have the Factory pump in there, maybe it's time for an Upgrade. :yes:

Just a question to those that have had an unregistered vehicle permit for a day before. It says on the rego.act website that you may need an inspection report of the vehicle if applicable.

Has anyone actually ever needed an inspection report before?

Cheers

Never needed one for the UVP. Had to get one when I first brought the car in from Japan in both SA and ACT jurisdictions. It's usually just a piece of paper from over the counter. I was told though that the UVP was only good for driving the car within ACT so had to run the gauntlet briefly to get it over to ESP which was only a few 100 metres outside of the border.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Chris.

Yeah I did notice that it is for ACT only but then also noticed on RMS it says "NSW recognises permits issued in all other jurisdictions provided the vehicle is operated in accordance with the conditions of the home jurisdiction."

But then I suppose to the ACT UVP conditions are that its for the ACT only anyway, so catch 22.

My car runs out of rego on the 20th and because I'm between jobs at the moment I don't want to pay for rego when I've already got my daily rego'd. We've got this track day on the 24th :( I'm thinking I may just go halvsies and hire a car with another guy again.

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
