G'day Guys,

While back now i had a full service done on my car, installed new turbo etc... at a workshop

Servicing my car tonight and find that a hose is not connected :) . Car is an R33 GTST S2, near the air filter.

Firstly, is the bottom of the charcoal canister supposed to be connected to anything? if so what? (pic 1)

Secondly, You will see in pic 2 there is a steel tube not connected to anything. this seems to go under the firewall. on the left is the hose which i think it connects to. this hose just connects to the side of the chassis

any help would be appreciated.

Judging by the location of those pieces, i would say that one connects to the other.

Just checked my car (R33 GTS25T) and the charcoal canister connects to both of those hoses you have disconnected there.

It goes straight down to a 90 Deg 3-way connector. So not sure where the rubber hose goes to in Pic2, but the metal hose would be a breather from the fuel tank if it's going to the charcoal canister.

But yeah, go back to workshop and get them to fix it if it's their fault.

thanks guys

the work was done months ago, and i couldn’t really be farked going back there. if you want something done properly you need to do it yourself.

the rubber hose connects to the chassis. i dont really think it makes a difference if its connected or not.

does anyone know if the 3 way connector is fully open each end, or has a one way flow?

i have a spare t-piece and hose i could use.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up

      You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
