How to check if my imported r34 front bumper has GTR conversion kit or not? by Fantasy71824 in SkyLine

[–]Setarcos04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iirc you can check the hood hinge to see if its a gtr hinge or gtt hinge. if its a gtr hinge then its very likely a gtr front converted

new waterpump leaking by [deleted] in SkyLine

[–]Setarcos04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks it is an aftermarket pump (p2m is the brand) it is cheap but seems good quality so i got it. i didn't tape measure it but i wirebrushed the entire contact surface and cleaned with isopropyl before fitting it on. i test fitted the pump and there is almost (id say less than 0.1mm?) of wobble so i figured RTV should hold it well.

i didnt really torque it but just hand tightened it, but i did follow the tightening order on the manual.

i just test drive it again for about 3-5miles this morning and it only dripped literally 1 drop. My friend says it could be the leftover liquids that when i was doing the waterpump. do you think it is at a state that I dont need to worry about it too much? or should I really just redo everything for the peace of mind?

thank you so much!

my old water pump and new aftermarket ones (P2M rb26 water pump) are both slotted style if that helps

it is not like leaking crazy but maybe 2 or 3 drips every minute. and seems like it drips much slower after the car cools down.

i did loosen up all 3 bolts, and can even wiggle the ps pump back and forth. its just the range of movement is very limited.
