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.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
