thats your boost controller soleniod.

that one has no use if you're hooking up an aftermarket boost controller (im assuming you've got one). get a spare vac hose, seal it off at one end somehow (mines sealed with a screw driven into it). attach the hose and you're done.

Well i've got no boost control then... yet how come my boost stays at a steady 7psi?? Is it due to some sort of restrictor?

Cop thought it was part of the pollution control gear, so defected me for it. Need to figure out where it hooks in..

the hose i have circled in blue is the hose that should go to your wastegate and be providing the 7 psi steady boost. The boost solenoid has been bypassed so you dont have the 2 stage boost. If it is hooked up you will be limited to 5psi below 5000 rpm then only above this you will get 7. Where is the hose going that is hooked up to it? can you provide a better picture.

      That's awesome. Fully serviced/full log book history for one of those cars is super rare from what I know. With JDM's like Skyline's, Supras, are quite hard to find one with full log book history. S15's seem to be somewhat of an exception, at least the spec s australian delivered models.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      Hey all, It's been a bit since I have been able to update.  I pulled the fuel pump, first off it was a "universal" pump and the strainer was very clogged, and it was folded over on itself.  I replaced the fuel pump and all is well....  No more stalling.

      That's convinced me I'll bump up the G30-660 to 770   Any idea if the difference in boost pressure? Cheers

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
