Hey guys.

I've been in the process of getting myself a pressure bleeder and have hit a snag with the supplier.

They are taking their sweet ass time to see which cap will fit my brake reservoir even with the dimensions and pictures that I provided.

Does anyone here have one and know what cap will fit?

I have come across one thread that said euro caps will fit (however they are threaded type not 1/4 twist)

And then others say that ford will fit (they seem to be slightly larger than mine)

Can anyone offer advice because I'm getting sick of waiting. This is for a R33 GTR

I've got to say, I've got the same issue with the SP Tools kit....don't buy it!

I bought BRAKE & CLUTCH PRESSURE BLEEDING KIT #: SP70809, and the cap they said fits does not. They later confirmed based on measurements that we need BRAKE & CLUTCH PRESSURE BLEEDING CAP - ALL HYUNDAI, MITSUBISHI, NISSAN & SUBARU #: SP70821 for 32, 34, 34 GTR, GTSt, Stagea etc

The part has been on backorder for 8 months now so I also have a useless kit. And clearly SP Tools have no interest or intention of supporting their customers.

Thanks for that Duncan.

I tried to go with a Aussie supplier and it probably was that kit you mentioned, because old mate came back to me this morning and said that they are all out of stock.

So now I am going to bite the bullet and go with the American one.

Motive power bleeder 0117.

The adapter they list is for ford/import.

Import includes what you just said, Mitsubishi, Nissan & Subaru.

I have also found someone with a 370z that has used this exact kit which worked. And as I understand, 370z has the same brake reservoir lid as us.

Fingers crossed and we will see.

Also @duncan. Does your kit have a quick release? Because you can buy just the adapter #1117 I believe from motive products to at least make your kit useful....

An update.

I received my motive power bleeder #0117 ford/import

And it all hooks up and I pressurised the reservoir with success.

So for future people wanting a tool to help them out this would be the one that fits on brake master.

OK, I finally got the SP adapter today, only 6 months after they sold the base kit. If anyone else is silly enough to wait that long the correct one for R32 GTR (and probably most skylines/stageas etc) is SP70821.

But frankly, I wont go near SP again, the service and communication was terrible. I'd take that motive power one you posted above

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
