Recently went to a track day and came to discover after stopping on the way back that the battery had become disconnected. Luckily there was someone there to help me out big time (Matt from F&E).

The previous owner of the car put in a battery that is too high, and didn't reattach the harness properly.

Can someone post up some pics of what their battery harness looks like in an R34. I assume it’s the same in a GT-T and GTR.

Also, I have seen posts about which batteries to use, but can you note what battery you have in your car.

Thanks for any help.

^^^love the plywood and ducktape.

I have an odyssey LB1200 in mine, but will be replacing very shortly (the LB is dead) with an odyssey PC925 or PC1200. I beleive they both fit.

I also have a bracket over the top of the battery holding it in place. Not sure if thats standard but if i get time i'll snap some pics after work.

Yeah but its always been like that and its almost impossible for it to move given there is no slack in the leads (needed a hammer to get the plugs on the terminals). Timber was put in for something to bolt the amp onto and duct tape to hold it in place.

Hope these help:

Thanks for the pics.

The probelm I had with my battery was that the terminal came loose while I was driving, so I need to change the connector or the battery or both. I've got a harness too, so I want to use that with the new battery to secure it.

There's only one screw on the inner side of the battery, and I don't know how the toher side is secured. I guess something is missing. Will have to take the whole back plate and strut out to have a squiz.

Been calling around a few places and a few recommend odyssey because they are fairly small but still powerful enough.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
