Hey guys!

Just rebuilding my R32 GTR and wondering if anyone had the vaccum line diagram or photo for underneath the intake manafold

Theres a by-pass valve/unit underneath the manafold with a few vac lines coming off it and i dont know where it all goes. Alot of them have been plumbed off by someone else in the past

If someone knows where all this goes it would be a great help

Thanks

Thanks heaps duncan!

I'll have a look when i get back to work. I've got that service manuel too but sometimes its easier if you have an actual photo.

So much crap under that manifold. I guess thats the price you pay for having the best car in the world :D

Thanks again

the 2 vaccum lines (small hard lines underneath) are often blocked off with aftermarket boost control, you just take the feed from the rearmost exit from the plenum and run it to the solenoid, and then to the wastegates from there. Or is it something else they have blocked off?

well most the lines have been blocked with a bolt or screw. I've got like 4 lines that come off the idle solenoid that go no where, all blocked. Just wanna set it back to factory

I'll put it back together and when i do ill give you a holler. Do you work on these much?

I've got that service manuel too but sometimes its easier if you have an actual photo.

I spent many hours on the weekend printing out the service manual and putting it in plastic sleeves in a display folder. It's way easier to read that way and it means you can have the folder (or page) in the garage with you when working on your vehicle.

Cost me about $60 in materials from officeworks.

If it looks like a pretzel it is the breather for the front diff. One end goes to the diff, the other is open.

You are my god!!!! I have spent many an hour looking through the service manual and even fast screens trying to find the blody thing

Thank You

I take it the 2 lines ive marked in red are the ones that the hoses run from to the factory boost solenoid?

if so .. im running a greddy boost controller directly to the intake plenum and the wast gates so dont need to use it.. but i have lines

still running from them to the factory solenoid..if i remove the solenoid and the rubber lines.. should i join the 2 points together with a small bit of rubber hose of cap each one off separately?? just dont want to effect anything else that may or may not be running on either side of those vacuum lines..

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
