there is a bleed point at the bottom of the pump. there is an access hole underneath for the bleed nipple

there is also another one next to where the attesa line bolts to the attesa unit on the back of the transmission, right above the chunk of weights. be VERY careful of the prop shaft if you do it with the engine running

To bleed the forward nipple you will require a small piece of rubber tube to put on the end I the nipple, helps not to make a big mess, a 10mm spanner and 3 people.

The first person will sit in the car, his job will be to just pull out the ODB2 cable and unplug the single wire plug inline with the rest of the loom about 10cm up. Then all he will be doing is turning the ignition to the reds.

2nd person will be under the car, I just jacked up the rear and the nipple can be reached from the drivers side. Undo the nipple as far as you can with out taking it out completely and put a container underneath.

Last person will be in the boot of the car topping up the Atessa resivour as it is pumped out. The fluid will drain quite quick.

Then it's simply a matter of you turning the car on and letting the pump run bleeding the system keeping the resivour topped up as you go. I bled until there was no more air and ended up with about 2L of fluid in my bucket as my fluid was also a funny color so I wanted it all nice and red.. Then while the pump is still running close the nippe off and tighten.

The rear nipple is on the pump and bleeds via gravity so its just a matter of undoing it and letting it drain for a min then tighten.

I used Matic D.

Hope this helps :)

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
