I'm need to borrow a stock boost solenoid for obvious reasons ASAP. So *somebody* must have one sitting in there car, or garage unused.

If you have any sort of bleed valve or other boost controller installed, you will have a spare one. Hell, even if you don't know what it is, I'll come show you. If you have any sort of boost controller, it will be sitting in your car spare and unused.

Needs to be an R33 valve, although R32 could be the same (anybody know for sure?)

Need it ASAP (by wednesday at the latest). Will return the following week.

come on.. don't make me slap you all...

u all got one.. i just need to borrow it .. i'll come by and pick it up, even take it off your car for you (5 min job).

Most of the time its just sitting in there for decoration, as most workshops just leave it bolted on and disconnected once they install a bleed valve or EBC.

raza: thanx, if u could track it down that would be great. Its a little cylinder thing about 5cm high with a couple of house points into it on the left strut tower (just below power steering reservior). Most places just leave it bolted in. If they put on an EBC they should give it back to you.. its yours after all.

riggaP: why else does one return a car to stock for a day? Mine was long since removed unfortunately, so don't have one to stick back on.

Thanx Ula.. yours is a GTR though - doesn't it run different stock boost to the gts-t's ?

will keep it in mind if I can't find one of a GTS-T

Eastern suburbs preferred as well :D but will come collect anywhere if i have to.

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

      Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!

      Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.

      Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
