How much and where from matty? Ive been looking at the whole kit lately, hopefully it might resolve the choo-choo turbo shuffle the -5s have

Kudos Motorsport pete. The suction kit was a tad over 1300 freighted from qld. Hard pipe kit installed last week was 650.

Somehow I dont think its the boost flutter you have to worry about pete (stock wastegates ftw) :whistling: You still attending the dyno day? I can't wait to hear your 33 at full noise in the shed :D

Yeah I'll be there don't you worry.

Does that suction kit fit your stock afms or only z32s?

Aaah should've mentioned that... I got the last kit from kudos that is compatible with stock afms. The rest are Z32 jobbies.. I'm gonna cheat and use nismo items..

It might pay to have a bit of a google and find out which brand you prefer the look of mate, some people prefer the HKS kit, good luck finding one in oz though!

Only problem is now my inlet plenum would look much better chromed and polished, looks like my stealth engine bay approach is dead :whistling:

Anybody know the best place to buy a Nistune for series 2 rb25 r33? An do you need to supply your own ecu or does it come complete to bolt in?

I didn't think these were supported, so I checked their website (http://nistune.com/equipment-products-type2.php):

• ECR33 Skyline (RB25DET)*1

*1 ECR33 RB25DET Skyline can use HCR32DET ECU (no VCT) or Z32 VG30DETT ECU (internal modifications required)

So yeah - R32 ECU if you don't want VCT, or Z32 ECU if you do.

Yeah nismo afms is what I'm running too hence why I mention it. I think I'll probably just import one when the time comes. It's good to know it works with the stock size ones though, I couldn't find any info about it on trusts website.

Sorry pistol I may not have explained that properly. The greddy kit comes in two variations: standard afm and z32 afm compatible. I managed to snag the last one on kudos' shelves that retain stock items.

That way I can run nismo afm's later on if need be. try www.rhdjapan.com .... never fails :)

So you bought two separate kits, the intake and the I/C piping? Thought they came in one kit?

Yep seperate kits. The "Hard Pipe Kit" replaces the factory rubber i/c piping. The "Suction Kit" replaces the factory intake piping and airbox. A smidge under 2k sent to my door..

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • 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       
    • 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).
