under the hood questions er34


Recommended Posts

pic 1 fan:

what is this fan for ? stock intercooler?

it is currently disconnected, car has a front mount intercooler.

 

pic 2  brackets:

two brackets by pass side strut tower

what are these for?

 

pic 3 intake hole/capped hose:

there is a hoses capped and large hole/ plate missing? on back of intake pipe next to throttle body

what is the hose suppose to be connected to and what is this plate missing?

 

pic 4 5 and 6 hood prop rod :

hood prop rod is not bent, but doesn't line up with clips to hold it, it hits

something electric sensor? that is on a bracket, what's not correct here?

I would also assume there suppose to be a prop rod bushing?

 

pic 7 brake line brackets:

where can one find the upper rear vertical brackets for brake lines, both are broke one front missing

 

thanks

Air con condensor fan.

Not sure about the brackets. They're not the same on the 32. Possibly for tank breather lines.

Traction control motor/throttle body. Hoses? Can't tell.

External air temp sensor for the climate control. And yes, bushing.

Dunno about the brake brackets. Probably NLA.

where is the External air temp sensor for the climate control originally mounted?

 

# 3 pic : this blank opening is on the back side of intake piping, just before the throttle body, throttle position sensor?

the hose that is plugged come right off the bottom edge of the bov, I believe.

Again, on an R34, I don't know exactly. But somwhere around there. We all relocate them to clear intercoolers, oil coolers, etc.

No. The actual TPS is on the actual throttlebody, which is of course, further along at the plenum inlet. It's on the opposite side of the crossover pipe from the throttle cable and bell crank that you can see in your pic #3.

The RWD turbo Neos have an additional ECU (actually, TCS ECU) controlled throttlebody where that blank opening is on yours, for the traction control system.

alright, so some came from Nissan, wide open like this, or was there a plate there originally?

so I can put a plate over this opening, and it wont or currently effect anything by not having it connected or open/closed?

and I would assume the Air con condenser fan will have to be connected in order for the a/c system to function correctly, I would assume its controlled by a temp sensor or such, I will look to see if hopefully its just been unplugged and I can track it down, other wise where does it wire to?

I have never seen a turbo crossover pipe casting without the TCS TB in place. Your photo does not do enough to show what is actually going on. That oblique angle does not tell me if that mounting point for the TCS TPS is open to the pipe or not not. If it is open, then someone has removed the TCS throttle, motor and TPS, etc. And yes, you will have to close it up somehow. If there are no penetrations on either the front or the rear of the crossover pipe, then you don't have to do anything. But as I said - I've never seen a casting with the mounts that doesn't have the TCS parts.

The Stageas had the same motor, but because they were AWD, they don't have TCS. So they have a different crossover pipe.

The air con will work without the fan - as in, it will run. It won't work well in hot stop-start traffic though. The fan is there to get some air moving across the condensor.

Yes, the wiring loom/plug for it is supposed to be within reach of the fan's own plug. If it's nearby, you'll find it. If it has been f**ked off, no-one can help you.

You really should look at the service manual. There are lots of diagrams.

alright, here is a better pic of the hose coming off by the bov.

i could not find any wire loom or remains for the ac fan connection.

any idea what are these two open ended hoses by the battery?

The hose near the BOV has nothing to do with the BOV. It is probably the sense line for the Neo's boost sensor, which is usually mounted on the back end of the coil cover there, next to the purge solenoid. All this is shown inn the DRAWINGS that I keep referring you to.

The hoses near the battery look like someone's bodge. No-one can know what some wanker in the past has done.

did some google searching, and it appears alot of these rb25det neo from Stagea's have nothing in that TCS opening.

as far as that hose next to the bov, I found this pic and it is showing this hose, it has two short sections and a inline valve? or something, but did not find pic showing where it connects to.

as far as i can tell the hose that goes to the boost sensor is off the back of the top section of the intake.

as far as the Drawings you keep referring to, where can one get those?

That's a filter, and after the filter is the boost sensor. The ECU's boost sensor. Not the dash gauge boost sensor. The ECU's sensor is DEFINITELY connected to the crossover pipe. The dash gauge boost sensor is definitely connected to the plenum.

The drawings are in the R34 workshop manual (as I already said), which is freely downloadable after a brief google search.

did some google and I think I found that the two hoses by battery, must be for washer bottle, that is missing, the front outside temp sensor goes on bottom driver side edge of lower rad cross member. correct me if I'm wrong.

 

new question:

car has what looks to be the xenon style headlights,

what color are head light bulbs originally?

current outside corner lights are blue...

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
