Hey guys i have a r33 turbo in at the moment and i had to change spark plugs due to missfire.

Everything seems fine now that i have done that. Pulls very hard.

Only thing is that when i have put the crossover pipe back together i have noticed the thicker hose from

the charcoal canister is going nowhere.

the smaller one is going to one of the lines next to the crossover pipe. The other line is connecting to my turbotech boost controller, which leads the thicker hose from the charcoal canister doing nothing. Has this been changed by my mechanic when he put the 33 turbo in.

Cheers guys Adrian

that line usually is connected to where you are saying your turbotech boost controller is connected to. on the crossoverpipe next to the small one.

Hey thanks for the reply but now that my boost controller connects to it where does that missing hose connect to.

Is it doing harm to the car or the charcoal canister or anything

Cheers

nah. most charcoal canisters are useless after 100k k's anyway. if it'll give you piece of mind just get a tee piece and tee it into the boost controller line, or any vac line that is on the intake plenum.

cheers thanks for your help

Adrian

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
