I wouldn't stress about it. so long as the fuel regulator is hooked up no probs. Use it for your boost gauge.

Thanks for reply ill be using it for my aftermarket boost gauge if its an extra vac line. Hopefully this helps out someone else with the same issue.

Sorry i thought you were wondering what it was for and wanted to know what went there originally. My mistake. Didnt realise you wanted to know what you can use it for.

No stress champ, Thanks for all the replies =), if anyone thinks it should be used for something else let me know. Going to be used as a vacuum feed for my boost gauge at this stage.

Hey mate. Didnt read through the whole thread so sorry if its been answered.

My R33 has that too. When i bought it, it just had a blanking rubber thing off it. Mine is a 1998 Model, and have only seen them on these so far too.

Seems like it was just some random extra nipple added for some unkown reason.

I ripped off the blank and use it for my boost gauge feed too. So your all good, nothing has been left off :)

If you look closely, you'll see it there with the hose running off to the Apexi sensor on the fusebox.

Thank you exactly the answer i was looking for, My engine is out of a 1998 S2 GTS-T, hence why it has the same nipple. nice engine bay btw ;)

my old 1998 R33 GTS-t S2 had the same nipple, I hooked up my Apexi Power FC MAP sensor to it.

Thanks for the reply =) helped out as well i now know it can be used for different applications.

ill most likely hook it up to my boost controller. I hope this thread helps someone else with the same issue.

Thank you to everyone for replying and trying to help out.

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
