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.

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

The rebuilt ABS unit is back in and (partially) bled. Took it for a spin around the block and will check for leaks tomorrow.

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.

    • 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?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • 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)
