Hey guys,

I got a series 1 R33 and I'm about to change all the fluids. ie. gearbox, engine, and diff oil, Coolant, powersteering fluid and brakes as well.

I was hoping that someone could give me a run down on the best way to drop my powersteering fluid and put fresh stuff in/bleed the system etc.

Also there is a tiny little reservior under the bonnet to the right side of the brake master cylinder, what is it and what is the best fluid to put in it and how do I do it?

Please help, any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks heaps :thumbsup:)

Tiny little reservoir is clutch fluid.

This is the way I do the powersteering - others might do it differently. I undo one of the hoses form the powersteering reservoir, drop that fluid, suck the rest out using a mitivac, put hose back on, fill it, jack the front of the car up, and turn wheel side to side. Easy. I know that my method doesn't get out all the fluid, but it doesn't matter. My fluid was clean, so refreshing it was just for fun anyways. If its dirty, I do my method a couple times.

    • 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.
