Welcome. While you can physically block the EGR, the problem is the ECU throws the management light up when you do. As far as we know, there is no way around this I'm afraid.

If you do want to block it anyway, you can use blanks that are used for the D40 Nissan Navara. Check back here with links though, so I can check if it's the right shape for our cars.

So far so good. Light came on at the start, but I cleared the code, and it's never come back. Weird one, but seems to be working. I'll still be cleaning the EGR and intake out with Wynns every so often until I'm running water/meth injection.

Thanks bud i'll blank it off both ends next week and join the water pipes together as i want totally rid of the egr before i do a full engine flush and service and remap

Oh also when you blanked off your egr did you remove the actual egr unit or just blank off the ports?

When I blanked it off fully I removed the EGR pipe and blanked off the exhaust manifold and valve, leaving valve in place.

With the engine management light coming on, it would be worth checking the codes every so often just to make sure something else isn't going on and not just the EGR setting it off.

Thanks bud your a star i just want it to run smoother and cleaner with better torque as it's my daily/time attack skyline trailer car but love the almera more each day it's my second one my first was a base spec n16 1.5 and it was total crap compared to the sxe it's a totally different car

Yeah the 2.2 Diesel is a good engine. Quite smooth and good economy considering it's an older design now.
