Ok so after finding a problem in my new stagea I have found a relay that sounds rather upset and after some snooping around online I can't manage to find what it is or where it goes so hopefully someone here should be able to help. I don't know if all models have it but I have a '97 series 1 model.

Now this relay is on the drivers side, mounted to side of engine bay behind strut tower and to the drivers side of brake master cylinder, right up in the drivers side back corner. It's a black relay and has from what I can see, 2 plugs that attach to the bottom of it.

To fix, firstly try a new accumulator, usually good for 10 years, 350+ from nissan. Pm me as i have a near new (july 12) spare one for sale. Fitted for a few weeks only. Didnt fix my issue, as i ended up replacing pump and fitting my 2 yr old accumulator.

Thankyou! Yea it does have that annoying tick.

Other problem I have iss aftermarket fuel pump that isn't giving me enough output when I lay my foot down. Which I have been told a bosch 040 will fix. Does the old stall around right handers anywhere under 1/2 a tank if I take corner too quick but shocking under 1/4 of a tank.

Get an accumulator from nissan, jack or hoist car up, locate pump above rear diff, unscrew old accumulator...slowly to relaese pressure, will be messy with some fluid. Can be hard to remove, no space for pipe wrench. I used a chisel n hammer to loosen the accumulator. Install new one, grease o-ring first. Manual says to hand tighten, then tighten with tools so it moves 5mm on outside.

Fill up the fluid reservoir in boot to the brim, well above max. Activate the attessa pump manually by disconnecting the black plug behind the drivers kick panel. Turn key to ign, u should hear pump running. You then need to bleed fluid, 2 nipples, one at back of transfer case and one on pump, exhaust side. Run fluid out till bubbles gone and fluid level is good. Reconnect pump plug/wire. Start car and check fluid level whilst running. Done.

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
