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.

      r34's love to squeal

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
