I always come to this forum for answers and half the time it I figure it out on my own just typing it out and reading it over :glare:. So I was stuck on the last step on bleeding the return line to the tank in the trunk but I got it done. If this is a re-post sorry.

NOTE: You need Nissan ATF fluid for this application. Check step "4" first so you can have everything ready to go.

Step 1: Fill tank 30mm above MAX line. "tank is located in right rear of your trunk"

Step 2: Open air bleeder on oil pump. Crack open till there is no more air coming out and you get fluid dripping. "This air bleeder is located on the pump on top of the rear diff. Bleeder is on right side. Can’t miss it"

Step 3: After you tighten up that bleeder you go and turn the ign on. Don’t start the car just turn the key to ign.

Step 4: You need to unclip the air bleeder connector. " This is a white clip located under the dash on the right side behind your kick panel" Opposite side of your ECU" Might be a good idea to un screw your kick panel before you do any of these steps. When this connector is unplugged it puts the pump in (air bleeder mode) and the pump operates at a fixed hydro pressure to the transfer actuator"

Step 5: You now need to bleed the nipple on the rear of the trans just below the tail shaft and above the hydro line attached to the rear of the trans. You want to give it 1-second blerps. You can hear the pump actuate while doing this. Do this step until there is no more air coming out the nipple.

Step 6: Go back to the tank in the trunk to check the level of fluid. Fill to MAX is necessary or just above. Now to finish the bleeding process you need to go back into the car to the air bleeder connector. You want to plug it back in and then UN plug it and plug it back in. You want to repeat this process until the lower level fluid in the tank in your trunk has a 5mm max air gap between the lower and higher level fluid. I had to plug in and unplug my bleeder sensor about 20 times at least. If you want get a friend to check the rear level while you sit in the car unplugging the bleeder sensor that might be easier. I had to do this on my own :kiss:

If this doesn’t make any sense let me know and I can retype it for you guys :kiss: I’ve done a search on this info this week and also about a year ago on this forum and never came up with anything conclusive so now we got it.

This is the tank in your trunk. I didnt get any before pictures but this gives you an idea of the high and low level's of fluid and how it should look when your finished.

This is the bleeder on the pump above the diff. Its on the right side of the diff. Very easy to spot:

This is the bleeder on the trans. I used a clear hose so I could watch the air shoot out.

This is the air bleeder connector. The fsm tells you to make a switch but it is easy to plug in and un plug many times.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
