hi, i not long have owned my first turbo car (r33) and it has a bigger turbo on it. and for as long as i have had the car i have noticed there is a small brass like fitting with a piece of vacuum hose comming off the turbo... can anyone please tell me what this is for and if it is supposed to be attached to any other lines ect.

thanks

It is usually attached to the wastegate actuator, i would simply block it, as the wastegate must be hooked up elsewhere(assuming your not running 70billion psi

)

so its of no importance then. i take it if your running anything more than stock boost level it is pulled of the actulator? its not blocked or anything. as far as i know it doesnt blow or suck so blocking it might be a good idea??

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

      All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
