I bought my s2 R33 a year or so ago and it didnt come with a spare tyre bolt thing to hold the space saver in the boot.

Every time I go over a bump the space save likes to move around and make noise.

Where can I get the bold to secure my spare tyre and how much will i expect to pay?

Yeah a hardware store is a bitch. It's not like we can reverse our cars into the store and mix and match bolt lengths and threads to get the right one. Also I think you need some sort of metal plate for the bolt to sit on if it's like other cars I've seen.

Maybe try www.findapart.com.au. I'll send them a request too I think.

Yeah will do, I'll ask if they have 2 if/when they reply. I think I might have tried the above URL before with no success, just can't remember if I did it after I got the car. I've used it before with mixed results for other car and motorcycle parts.

I rang up Col Crawford (located on the northern beaches) and they said they can order them in from Japan. It will cost $16 and must be payed up front.

I'll go and order mine tommorow.

The guy also said its the same part as that on a s15.

Jimx: i'll PM you about this.

A wrecker replied to my Findapart request and said he had them for $20, so I replied and asked him to COD one to me. But he hasn't replied in over a week so I guess it's not coming. Oh well, his loss and my gain if I can get one new for $16 :D

Get out a ruler.. measure the bolt diameter, and bolt height, and find an appropriate washer to hold it all down.. its not that hard! Will cost you $3 max via that method.

But if its same as from an S15.. just go to Nissan directly.. they'll have one in stock.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
