Just got my Skyline gts-t 33 back after it was sitting for 4 months and i think i have got a blockage and would just like to know where it is located on the car so i can have a look.

MIne is on the drivers side of the engine next to the strut tower, big shiny silver sucker.

Hot water helps, but trying to get the hot water anywhere near the fuel hose if you have aftermarket parts near the fuel filter make it hard.

Trying to get the hose off takes forever if it hasn't been done for a long time :D

Thats the way.

Have some spare hose with you before you start. Because as many have done, you sometimes need to slice them off.

And a supply of paper towels and band aids :P (for the hand you will mash against a sharp bracket)

start car

open boot

pull fuel pump fuse (top 15a fuse)

car will stall

loosen fuel cap

start/turn car over until lines are clear

cut the old hose&filter off at each end and remove as a complete assembly (if its easy to remove its probably been done before so skip replacement)

replace with new hose (1/2" about 600mm req'd) and new filter (Z200)

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
