have been searching for the answer but i havent been able to find it.

I just wanted to know where the skinny hose goes that comes off the pipe that goes into the intake from the BOV. It looks like some sort of vacuum hose.

Sorry for the stupid question but my car is currently stalling when approaching lights etc and this is the only hose of the BOV that isnt connected.

Thanks, Mike.

is it plumb back? if not then thats more than likely whats making it stall.

but yeah the 4mm hose on the top of the BOV goes to a small metal pipe sticking out of the plenum .. just down and to the right of the throttle body when looking from the passenger side.

Hey mate, i was actually talking about the thick pipe (1"?) that comes off the side and goes into the intake pipe just after the AFM. On this thick pipe there is a little fitting with a skinny hose (about 4mm) coming off it. This is the hose that im talking about.

BTW. its a standard BOV.

Thanks, Mike

that is a hot pipe that only has air going through it after the BOV goes off. so it doesn't matter too much if there is a leak.

i was running a GFB hybrid that vented to atmosphere and back into the pipe and never had an issue.

plug up the hole since it is not a standard fitment. never seen an r33 with a hose coming off that hose.

Hey mate, the actual problem im having is my car keeps stalling. So where exactly does this hot pipe go, i want to try and hook it up and see if it makes a difference. I currently have it blocked.

Thanks, Mike.

here you go :( sorry about the quality as my camera batteries just die, so i uses my camera phone, but if u still need better ones once they are all charged up i will takes some more

-if u look at the last 2photos, it is where the bov return pipe goes into the intake pipe; and there is a pipe sticking out is blocked off with a screw (i have a feeling that this may connect to the stock boost control bleed value thingo)

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
