R33 water feed line leak. help?

hey everyone, my water pump went so i replaced the water pump and did the timing belt service and was happy to have no more leaks and enjoy my car..

but now i have found myself a very small leak coming from the back of engine, i have found it was hose that connects to the turbo water feed line.

does anyone here have the best way or technique to replace the hose? because i took the cam gear cover off and still no room to fit my hand in there. 

also nissan said its going to take 2 weeks for the part to come in. other option they said was to take it off and go to any car store that has a part like it. recommendations?  

cheers for the info n help!

also i will be filming a video on it for a how to on my new channel that me n my friend have been filming videos of our R32 GTR and R33 S2 gts-t build etc.

part number " 14056V "

look...this one ain't rocket-scientifical.

pull shit off/move shit out of the way till you can reach the hose, then replace with any decent 6/8 mm(can't remember what size but think 6mm) quality hose of required length. No way i'd gen. Nissan for this, it's only a mild bend that most free-length hose can cope with.

Yeah it's tight but welcome to JDM.

Replace said shit that you moved out of the way. Fine for another 10+years.

Haha removed nothing at all. The pliers need to be about 1-2 feet long.

i forgot to upload photos and say what happen lol. i replaced the clamps with screw clamps so it makes i easier to change. even long pliers wouldnt work etc. i removed s much shit and still couldnt fit my hands in there eventually jsut ripped it out with the pliers. and was able to slide on new hose and use a lnog screw driver to close em down.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
