Hey guys tried doing a search and I am trying to find my boost restrictor on my r33 Gtr?

There is no restrictor in the pipe with the yellow band.. Is there another one? The car won't boost over 9psi.. There is a bleed valve on the car.. This fitted on the drivers side near the intake.. But the boost controller wires still connected..

Pictures or links or help much appricated..

run your boost solenoid on the turbo side, u can cap off the lines that connect to the stock boost solenoid

Search for the rb26 vacuum diagram which shows how to hook your boost controller up properly

Any pictures of how this is done.. Could I just put my boost controller over at the turbo side?

thats a picture of how i had mine setup, basically i installed a nipple on the bottom of the 'twin turbo' pipe and got the pressure source from there

You put a T piece in there going to the solenoid but what did you do with the 2 standard pipes that go to the inlet manifold? Also where's the other vacuum pipe going to?

Right I found the rear boost restrictor under the inlet manifold at the back marked with a yellow band, removed and my car is no different, still runs just under 10psi.. What else could it be?

Had a look for the yellow band mark on the front coming off the boost controller but I think my pipes have been replaced.. I know it's had a engine before..

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
