Quick question after reading the tech section.. Can any body confirm the rear hose splitting from heater pipe under plenum can be bypassed without doing a plenum pull? This is the offending hose.. I can just do this hose without pulling plenum correct? Can anybody help?
Hi mate, Unfortunately you can't just plug the hole. Check out this thread, might point you in the right direction. http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=328358&highlight=bastard+hose+replacement
The hose in the top pic does not match the location in the bottom pic. Can you please be more specific about where the hose came from?
Thanks heaps mate,, that thread had the answer I was looking for. Looks like I'm in for a rough ass day trying to fix that hose in rain with no cover. :rofl:
The hose in top pic is the bastard hose. I was asking if I could bypass It completely by running a longer hose where it splits off heater pipe straight to turbo with plenum still on.
Ok gotcha -well yes you can. If you haven't pulled the plenum before its almost worth doing so to change your other hoses too. I have done it both ways; given the choice I'd rather spend the extra time to pull the plenum
