Just checking out all the different things on the stag, and found an oil pot thingy in the side panel on the right hand side of the boot area. What is it for?

I was trying to find the rear window wash bottle to fill up, still haven't found it lol

Any ideas on both?

The bottle in the rear is your ATTESSA system fluid, (for your 4wd) and the rear washer bottle is the same as the front washer, looking at the enginebay from the front, there should be a yellow cap with a long elongated S shape tube, on the left, near the battery, that is the washer fluid container, well the top of it.

I dunno, but it the car hot/cold? I bet if you check it after driving it around for a bit and then stopping that the levels would be fine, as that fluid is compressd when it is used so the level would drop......?

BUT Then again I really wouldnt have a clue eh, just guessing, wait for Alex or Brad or Gary for an answer from a knowlegable source :)

Thankyou :happy:

With the ATTESSA Fluid, the level is about 1cm over the max line... this can't be good...??

hey kylie thats normal, u gotta check the fluid level with the car ignition turned on and it will drop to the correct level. its just drained back up abit when ignition is off.

cheers

when you guys says its the ATTESA system does it means the transfer case? Cos i want to check every fluid in the car. I dont trust those Kamilaze guys.

First of all the didnt fill the coolant resovoir tanks. Engine oi is fine. Power sterring fluid is over filled i check it when its cold. I want to check the transfer case, gerbox and the diffs. Does it means that i have to jack the whole car up and also the car is so damn low

Ah sorry mate, the reservoir in the boot is just for the Attessa pump system, which pressurises the clutch pack in the transfer case. The transfer case oil is separate.

Ok so what kind of oild does it use? Gearbox oil? hydralic oil? or diffs oil?

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
