Hi guys,

Iv been around and worked on a lot of cars however i am very new to skylines (4weeks new)

I have an R33 GTS-T 94 JDM import model.

The problem i have is that my n/s rear light getswet inside and the indicator actually fills up when it rains or i wash it.

I have noticed that if i lift the boot, the channel that is designed to run water away from the rear window around the boot down and out somewhere, is filling up on the paasenger side.

This is obviously the problem but i dont know where it is supose to drain too??

Also inside the boot there are signs of this issue in the past, water marks on the hard board cover under the carpet and if i open the access panel/carpet covering the light bulbs it is also wet inside, as well as down in the rear guard well/arch???

Can anybody shed any ligh on this issue and perhaps a fix??

Is it a common fault?? simply just a drain hole bunged up?? I am unsure where to start..

Thanks

Awesome cheers Kasko.. would never have found that, i youtube a lot of things but not google often enough.... is now top of the list!

Also 250.9 at the rears.. NICE, good effort, im still 95% stock but im looking to creep up towards these sort of figures! :google:

If you need any help with power figures cruise on over to the Forced Induction thread.

Plenty of sheets and info in there and the guys are always helpful.

Once I get this clutch sorted I will be able to unleash the tune.

Only got to drive it about 20min before the clutch gave way

Good luck :)

Sweet cheers buddy il check it out. Devo'd about your clutch, i got an excedy heavy duty race job in mine, pretty good.

Will just make it all the better when you get back in it after having to wait.

Cheers for the advice dude. Il post on the thread how i get on with pics if i remember, so there is an R33 example. :yes:

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
