Just need to work out which lines need to be blocked and which I need to use, can someone tell me what each of the following do?

1) two small air fittings coming off the top piece of the inlet manifold?

2) two large fittings coming down from the top piece of the inlet manifold with rubber hoses attached?

3) a short piece of rubber hose coming out the back of the water way (bottom piece of inlet manifold)?

4) smaller barb thats attached to block near thermostat? (bigger barb goes to heater).

5) opposite side of block, for turbo water return, do I use top hole or bottom hole (located towards back of block)?

Thanks people.

1, front is for FPR back is for standard boost gauge

2, for that big f**k off thing thats under the standard plenum.. to tired to think of its name

3, water return that runs around the back of the head (there is also one running to the front) make sure you replace that bloody piece of hose with a nice new quaility silicon item.. they are an absolute bitch to change while in the car.

4, i cant remember i'll have a look sometime tomorow

5, get a picture of it.. i have a feeling your talking about the water feed tho

also little bit more info on wat your tryin to setup could help possibly

RB30/26 engine upgrade using power FC d-jetro and stock GTR loom. T04z trust turbo kit.

So from whats been said:

1) FPR and boost gauge

2) Block off

3) Water return from turbo (can use either front or back as in attached pic but front would be better so less hot water is going past intake manifold).

4) Block off or below?

5) Water to turbo top one, block the bottom one

Also block the other small barb on passenger side rear of block or attach back to 4 so when the heater switch is turned off the water runs back to the engine side of thermostat???

4 is coolant feed to the oil cooler I am pretty sure. which you dont need with your oil relocation. it has a return somewhere too

also, I am pretty sure you need to join and not block off 2. It is for balancing pressure across the manifold due to the multiple throttles

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
