Hey all,

My upper radiator hose for my r32, sprung a leak and caused a big mess in the car.

Im after a replacement hose, either original Nissan or other.

Im having trouble sourcing one, as all shops (repco, autobarn, burson, nissan) are out of stock and I need to order in.

Nissan says they can get one by Monday Afternoon but would like one tomorrow so i can get the car on the road ASAP.

Would anyone know where I could get a brand new radiator hose tomorrow (Sunday?)

JustJap sell radiator hoses but unfortunately are located in NSW and postage would take several days.

Are there any Jap Import part suppliers open tomorrow in the SE area which may have this hose?

Thanks :laugh:

I've got a used one you could borrow until Nissan get a new one in for you. PM for contact details.

Thanks for the offer :)

Seems too much hassle to borrow and fit on a used hose only to remove the next day once Nissan part arrives.

If i dont end up finding a pipe i can always call in sick on monday :laugh:

Cheers

Just take the pipe to supercheap or autobarn and pick a hose similar. You may have to cut it but for $10 it gets you driving for the day. I've done this before and it works because I couldn't be bothered waiting for them to order one.

what nissan you go to? I'm in need of some bits, they sound like a good one for import bits. The one near me isn't even like a full nissan it's like a nissan/chrysler so i don't think they are gonna be too helpful....

I went to Nissan Ferntree Gully, which apparently is "Australia's Most awarded nissan dealer ever!" :rofl:

lol I like the apparently :huh: i'll be down there tomorrow might have to pay them a visit and see if they have a sender or how long it will take to get me one.

well he told me that, if i order the hose on monday morning, I will receive monday afternoon. Although, the same upper hose is used for the GTR, and they could have it on stock due to the car being locally delivered?

Find it odd how they would have hoses on stock for a r32 gtst sitting somewhere if they were an overseas make.

dealers dont keep every part for every car in stock, patrick.

if they did, it would be a f**king nightmare to run.

trust me.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
