Hi guys having problems trying to find where my hoses fit on to my carbon canister.

The car is a 2 door R33 series 1 1994 (oh she'z sexy :banana: )

My car had front end damage when I purchesed it :cheers: and the canister had been removed/crumbled before I had seen it to compare.

So I purchased a nose front cut I got from a series1, 4 door which had a cannister on it, now I'm thinking it maybe different cos all pipes seem to be shaped to fit specific places how ever I have one hose that just dont have a place to go, just wondering if my last 2 days of looking was a waste of time and that my actual problem was a wrong carbon cannister fitted.

Will be great to see pics if anyone has any of different types

pls pls pls heeeeeeeeelp pls :)

As far as the R33s are concerned, they should be the same. The R33 model is all controlled by the part thottle vacuum from the throttle body. It should have three vacuum lines; the larger is the vent from the fuel tank, the midsize is the vacuum supply from the manifold, and the small is the partial throttle signal from the throttle body. As long as those vacuum lines are there and correctly attached, that canister should be good to go. I have the R34, which was controlled by the ECU via a solenoid. I use the R33 vacuum canister because it is more compatible with the GTR system I am running.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
