Still no leak,

After it had sat around for a while that was when I noticed it leaked previously, so I recon it's fixed.

There are still orings on the inside of the unit that will be deformed and no longer sealing properly, reducing the effectiveness of the abs unit.

Z32 ABS actuator is now in! The plugs were swapped over so there was no cutting or soldering of wires. Tested the system 5 times by braking as hard as possible from 50 mph, then drove 35 miles home.

Super big thanks to Dane Miller at Houston Z Auto for meticulously and patiently fitting Z32's ABS unit into my R32. Also big thanks to Omnigear for his keen observation on the similarity of Z32's AB

so its more worthwhile to use the r33/r34 abs unit for longevity?

To bleed it properly the ABS unit needs to be operated while it's being bled with pressure. When you start the car it runs the ABS motor, but I'm not sure if its actuating the solenoids.I have a feeling these were pre-bled at the factory then installed.

Next step is to monitor the ABS with an oscilloscope so I can make a bleeding tool. Then I can bench test whole unit :)

Would you happen to be in Melb? I lost motivation but another person into electronics and cars would get me back on this project again. Got all the test tools here :)

I'm in Sydney. I have an oscilloscope now so I can monitor the solenoids when the ecu is activating them.

Ideally I would like to reprogram the ecu. The original one is designed for a new standard car, not what everyone has now.

If you don't mind, let me know your thoughts on how you plan on testing them.

Can i get an update on this? I would like to know all the materials used in this. My ABS pump is leaking around the motor and i want to rebuild the 0-rings within the unit. I have an o-ring that has about 30 different sized o-rings.

So I have rebuilt my abs pump using just some O-rings I had. It's been about a month with no leaks. I did make a video breaking down the pump.

I'm also interested in swapping in a R34 abs pump. Looks simple as the plugs are almost the same. Looks like a simple repin job.

I need the wiring diagram for the R34 abs pump. I have access to dozens of pumps and want to give this a try. An abs delete is always an option too.

R34 has 6 solenoids, R32 has 3. You need to run extra wires.

Weird. I've heard of 3 and 4 solenoid units, the difference being whether the rear wheels use a single circuit for both wheels or one for each. Any idea what the 6 are for?

ok, a search has brought me nothing yet again.

How does the r34 ABS have 6? i really could use a wiring diagram.

Which is better to swap? R34 or R33? i have access to a R33 GTR ABS pump and all R34 ABS pumps are the same from what i have seen.

Im sure there are only a handful of people that have attempted this.

Hi folks, new R32 GTR owner here, and sorry to revive an old thread.

The ABS actuator has been leaking since I got my 1990 GTR back in May this year. I would like to know if you fine folks can please share information regarding the size of O-rings, so I can gather them before I take mine to a shop for rebuild. Also, there was a mention of a video on tearing down the actuator. Is that video available?

Thank you all in advance, Squirrel.

I would have thought that a brake specialist workshop accustomed to working on ABS actuators would not only have a bunch of suitable O-rings on hand to suit any and all makes but not require their customers to source them beforehand.

Hint...I'm suggesting taking it to a brake specialist - a proper one, not one of those bloody chain store type ones you have in the US - to get it serviced. Given that you're going to take it to "a shop" for the work anyway.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
