Hi just wondering a few things if anyone can point me to another relating topic or tell me off their head would be appreciated.

Car seems like it dumps fuel when put into neutral, RPM gauge goes to 0 and increases again, occasionally doesn't....so just wondering where the fuel filter is? Is this it in the photo. If so what is the replacement model? Do they have them in the booklet things or just go to repco and ask?

That and the fuel pump location.

What is this thing above the fuel tank under the metal plate?

As i want to redo my custom boot, and will probably put the amps above it (make shelves).

Will my BOV cause damage to the above side of my bonnet if it continues to damage the black straw stuff? Can this be prevented?

How do i get to the retractor for the seatbelt? do i have to remove the backseat; if so is there a tricky way to remove them or just unscrew the 2 bolts on the front? and does that casing just pop off? I found 1 screw that needs to be undone.

And where can i get a jack to fit in the slot in the boot, only skyline, or other model cars as well.

Cheers,

Julian

-Fuel filter is to the direct left of your finger (the golden 'circle' with the hose exiting towards your knuckles). Go to repco and ask for a fuel filter for an R33 GTST. Have fun replacing it, those hoses are an absolute bastard to get to and even more bastardly to get off.

-That thing above the fuel tank is the fuel tank lid surprisingly :D Guessing those lines are related to the fuel pump, sender and whatever else requires power inside the fuel tank. Probably a better idea to work around it as the last thing you want is your fuel pump dieing and having to tear all your sound equipment out to get to it.

-Doubt it would cause any visual damage to the top of the bonnet, more likely it will bend/ break the bov trumpet thing first.

-Behind the back seat, use the search function for tutorials on how to remove the backseat (its not fun)

-I left my skyline jacks (one from r32 which fit in the slot and the 33 one which came with the car) under a friends datsun a year ago and havent found another jack yet which fits in there, most are too long when retracted so probably best bet to find someone wrecking there R33 and buy theres

what he said^^.

the fuel filter is a piddly little thing from factory. get the z32 one - its almost twice the diameter = better flow. check the DIY/FAQ section. there is a tute on how to do this.

the seat is really easy to get off. unscrew the 2 bolts holding the bottom part of the seat down, shove a large spanner, screwdriver or anything with leverage capabilities under the seat, as close to the bolt position as poss and pull up. the seat backs are just held by 2 screws at the bottom end and then just lift up and off their hooks.

for the AAC valve refer to DIY section again

Well the AAC valve was dirty, bout 8months ago and i cleaned it out, bout 3 months later it started playing up again....i will look into changing the filter,,, haven''t been driving it because i have pulled the seats out.

The seat belts...the front seatbelt...the retractor does not work, the back one the spiral spring thing had a blow out, had a 2metre strip lieing in behind the back seat.

Im guessing these things have to be bought in whole...with the back one, wat about the casing cover (the one that fits in the black pillar) how do i remove this from the belt??

And the front one... how is the top pulley thing for the belt removed? Is it a click cover with a bolt underneath??? (cuz i have seen the back one)

And it seems like the belts have been changed b4 too. the dates describe it was manufactured in 2000 and its a 97model.

And can i get a recommendation on a fuel pump..are the normal ones shit? wat would be good 4 good price?

Anyone that can help me plz help...my car will stay off the road till i get the belts done.

Thanks,

Julian

Refit your std plumb-back valve, and your idle/stalling issues should go away.

I does not have one....But there is like 1000 dollars of blow off valve there, it gotta be something else its just gotta be :thumbsup:

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
