Just sell the HKS SSQ as atmo bov's always cause problems. If you want sound use the money and buy a pod and put your stock BOV on and dont forget to heat shield the pod. No more stalling and you still keep the sound. its a win-win situation.

atmo bovs cause problems if you dont install them on right.

I have had 3 different atmo bov and have not had a problem with one of them (hks,apexi,blitz)

Michael i think u have a very tolerant R33 which makes you a very lucky man. Many R33 have super sensitive air flow metres. The majority of the skylines dont have atmo bovs i have noticed. I wouldnt mind having a hks ssqv but its 100% atmo but unless ur running a aftermarket ecu or piggyback computer it would cause probs if its not stalling then u'll be running rich az and stuff your cat converter,black smoke out of exhaust and back firing. is it really worth all that i dont think so.

any car that runs a AFM (Skylines!) cannot run Atmospheric wankerized, look at me, whoosh whoosh, fully sick, where are the chicks, Blowoff valves.

The Engine reads air.. Inserts fuel. The Atmospheric blow off valve dumps the air before it gets the the engine.

Put the stock one back on, or get a plumb back BOV.

The other option is to get a Powerfc DJetro with a MAP sensor and then put your spinny twirly whoosh chicks hurricane atmospheric BOV back on, and you'll be fine.

So yeah..

driving style also affects if it stalls or not.

I didnt have a bov for a while... i got used to hitting the accel & clutch at certain times so it didnt stall.

So you might have adjusted your driving style to minimise the problem

is it still stalling? check if there's any wind draft coming out where air is supposed to be released - the fin part. My friend's one was leaking before so we had to open it up and align the black face, the circle one. then just tighten the screws that hold it, after that it was perfect.

It amazes me the amount of people that think they can "fix" a car from stalling with an AFM and atmospheric BOV...

The only way to fix it is to plum it back..

There are a lot of people here that don't have a clue eh?

Yep the mafia explained it nicely. I agree. Hey the mafia you have a awesome Pod set up I remember. If you have pics put them up.

i aslo agree with mafia, if u wanna make w@nk noises buy a wrx fully sic bro

in all seriousness if u want to make ur car run properly u need a plum back (turbosmart make a awesome black stealth 1)

I think this works with most cases....

take off the HKS SSQ, repackage it, and sell it to some WRX owner LOL

then...

go buy a Plump Back BOV of your liking or use the stock one..

too simple !

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
