High guys newbie here.. Actually I'm a WRX owner but I do my brothers servicing on his R33, in exchange I get to drive it. :Bang:

Anyway.. Done a quick search through maintenance and can't find anything

on the bleed sequence.

When bleeding brakes on my old XA and other old cars I have always bled furthest and in towards the master cylinder on all my older cars.

But if I'm correct the R33 master cylinder has primary & secondary chambers, so I'm guessing you must bleed in a particular sequence.

The main reason why I was asking is that with MY99 WRX I must be bleed in this sequence.

1) Front Right

2) Rear Left

3) Front Left

4) Rear Right

This is stipulated in the WRX workshop manual.

WRX's / Subaru's have a diagonally split system!

I think the Skyline has a diagonal system too?

If someone has a workshop manual and can confirm the bleed process that would be great. ps Would love to know where I can download a manual.

Thanks guys and I must say this is great forum..

    • Get something that can spray a bit, something like I'd use is a pressure pack for weed sprayer. I use one with degreaser. Spray it on (make sure you're fully covered up, you don't want that shit on you, especially face/eyes). Alternatively, a paint brush will help here as you can brush and work at the stuff quite aggressively.   Be aware, citric acid can eat metal away and will cause it to rust more later. So make sure you neutralise it when done, and give the fresh metal some protection. That hanger, I'd honestly bin and get something like the Frenchy's drop in replacement. The tank, again, I'd look for something else to replace it with. Remember, as metal turns to rust, it means there's less metal there now. So some patches of your fuel tank are likely to be quite thin.   Personally, Id focus on the front end of things, IE, how did the injectors get clogged if they're meant to be after a fuel filter. Then, once the front is sorted, I'd rig something up, even like a small surge tank, and make sure the engine is now running and all behaving. Then I'd replace the fuel tank and fuel hanger and pump. Also, I'd already be preparing to ditch your fuel filter...  
    • That's looking great! Are you planning to do things like all hidden wiring with it, or you're planning to have it look more like we'd expect an RB in an engine bay to look like?
    • Haha thanks everyone, I'll take everyone's suggestions into consideration. If I do eventually choose a car ill post it here update on the mods I do.
    • I found the ingredients at larger amounts from a Coffee Shop. 1kg Citric Acid for €8.50 500g Baking Soda for €2.50 I tried it out tonight distilled water (I got from my ACs) and dish soap. It does get bubbly with dish soap. In just two hours the hanger has improved significantly and rubbing against any remaining rust seems to flake it off. I'm going to leave it a little bit longer and see how it goes. I have read that someone even used this solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a seized water pump which brought it back to life.
    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
