Don't cap that nipple on your throttle body, coolant is meant to pass through there and there is no point in capping it. Also, yes that is your knock sensor.

Thanks HB & Tek.Stripes-the coolant running to the TB to warm it up right? Warming the air cooled by IC, not necessary Props to Didderson for the idea.

Post by **White Comet** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 5:55 pm

so the line you need DOESN'T have the canister? i just want to make sure i grab the correct one for you

Website · Post by **mRodiek** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 6:04 pm

Correct, ignore the whole canister lol. Its the fuel line that connects under the car to a hose near the fuel tank with a screw clamp NOT the squeeze type. Ill look tomorrow and see if it goes to the fuel filter or FPR

Post by **White Comet** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 6:06 pm

Yes, that is what it's for and it is meant to help idle in cold temperatures. Nissan put it there for a reason and I don't see why capping it off will be of any benefit?

WC its NOT the line I thought it was! I just pulled both of them after realizing that the one that goes to the FPR wasnt the one I drilled through.

Its the line connected to a hose near the rear of the car with a simple squeeze clamp, I believe its the one that goes to the fuel filter, if you already pulled the return tube Ill still buy it from you but Ill need the other one as well. OR I can order it from Courtesy either way.

Stripes-this car wont be seeing cold weather because Im going to live in south california Nissan also put a truck motor in the 240sx here in the states-but we arent satisfied with that now are we

the throttle body from feezing open. which would be rare specially wit ha turbo having warm air come through. so cap them off. i started my car in sub zero temps no problem with it disconnected/

Ordered some new parts Enjuku says that Apexi USA is out of the AVC-R and its on months back order...so IDK what to do! Maybe pick one up used? Anyone got one? lol

Post by **tEknoS13** » Fri Apr 03, 2009 6:54 am

Why dont you just call another company that sells them? Im sure there are some laying around in other speed shops. Actually I think Topspeed has them in stock all the time.

Website · Post by **mRodiek** » Fri Apr 03, 2009 6:56 am

I cant really afford it now lol I have to pay WC for the fuel lines and I just ordered 2 gauges that I really want for start up..the rest will come after I get this car on the road.

Post by **tEknoS13** » Fri Apr 03, 2009 7:05 am

Cool, no problem. Besides those thing are expensive, I'll just have to see how my Profec turns out. I've been laying low, REALLY low. However, I have my full Silvia conversion, and I am oficially 5 lug

Website · Post by **mRodiek** » Fri Apr 03, 2009 7:59 am
