I recently had a bit of maintenance done on my stock '96 S2 R33, to discover that the orginal charcoal canister had been replaced for compliance purposes, however whether it is the canister they used or the way they did it, its not working the way it should, so based on the recommendation of my mechanic (really knows his stuff) he said to find a stock one again and i should be all good.

So my problem now is where to get one? As cheap as possible too, I can't imagine them being too expensive.

Thanx,

Sam :thumbsup:

What's the problem you're having Sam?

i had to have mine replaced some time ago too.

Maybe try JustJap?

something to do with the piping thats been used and no back pressure or something??? :thumbsup: not entirely sure....just know that I need a new one.

do you remember where you got yours? I'll give just jap a call....

$88 from Just Jap, that sound right??

Sounds about right - I got mine through UAS (it was being serviced there), cant remember how much it was, but 80 sounds about right.

I've got my old one sitting around if you want it. I dont think mine really needed replacing, but we changed it just to rule it out when troubleshooting something. Im coming up the coast tonight so I can bring it if you want?

      gtr hood match gt/gtt front fenders?

      After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
