banjo bolts and powersteering on sr

[sr28]

hey can anyone help me find a part. i need the banjo bolt which connects the banjo connector to the powersteering pump because the crap flew off on me. i have a first generation red top on a 1990 240sx hatch. does anyone know why it flew off like that, and if anyone has one for sale i'll pay well for it. someone help me

It fell off because it wasn't tight. Power steering systems are very high pressure systems. Also note that you shouldn't just tighten the crap out of it as it is a hollow bolt and if your break it off in the hole you will be kicking yourself for at least two weeks and if you did it in my shop i would be kicking you for at least two years. I am almost positive you can use the USDM 240 banjo bolts. Double check the onlin parts list here in the NICO forums or you could just go buy one for $3.00 and try it out.

/threadjackSince there is a powersteering thread right there i might as well ask this nooby question:How the hell do i go about it? I know that i can use the pump of a dohc ka, but dont i need brackets aswell? What about the hoses, lines or belt? Can someone explain or guide me in the right direction.//end

Are you talking about using the KA DOHC pump on the SR MOTOR?? If so, you can use the KA DOHC pump with the SR bracket, but you need to use the SR pump pulley and SR belt with the KA DOHC ps lines...I hope its not too confusing

sorry for the late response im learning how to use a forum lol

inertiadrft Thanks for the info man. But is that all that i need? Some guy told me that i need a resivoir or something along those lines. Then i also heard that the ka pump has 3 holes for hoses while the sr pump only has 2. Any comments on that?

[inertiadrft]

well yea, you also need the PS fluid resevoir from a KA DOHC or an SR,the KA DOHC pump has only one inlet and one outlet, just like the SR pump.the only PS pump that I know of that has three is the HICAS pump...

You can download a factory parts list from the web or just buy one for cheap off someone. They list the parts and have pictures.
