huumm even if you have turbocharged cars..dun put BOVs ...they increase fuel consumption, reduce perfomance and may cause car to stall....

sadly I didn't know these and had one installed in my car...the difference..a stock GTT can go approximately 400km full tank....mine goes only 350km

also apparently stock GTT suppose to have abt 206hp..my best dyno only 200hp...

Not tryin to have a go at you mate but do you mean dont fit BOVs that vents into the atmosphere? Because all turbo skyline comes with a stock BOV already fitted :D . I know that Atmo BOV causes the car to stall but don't know about the performace drainage. Why dont you try and fit your stock BOV back on to your GTT, Nissian wouldnt have fitted them on if they didnt think it would do the car any good would they. Good luck on finding out whats wrong with your car buddy.

Flutter = RICE but yeah whatever floats your boat go for it ahha.

Not if theyre set up correctly. skylines did come out of the factory with stock BOV's

This is even more ill-informed than the first post in this thread... :D

    • The powder coating came in at $250 EACH. The TRX rims got a coat of clearcoat on the outside only.    
    • Bit wet, but YUMMY
    • Keeping in mind that I am currently getting flat 10 L/100km on my RB25DET, which means >>500km/tank. I would test this car for vacuum leaks, check codes and AFM signal with NissDataScan as D says, check plugs, do a compression check while they are out.
    • It is hard to be specific half way across the world...but it *seems* like it might have a minor issue. Is the idle stable and does it rev smoothly? I would not expect any pops out of what I am assuming is a standard ECU, standard tune, standard exhaust. You can use Nissan Data Scan to find out exactly what is happening when it runs, the cable/software is reasonably affordable if you are not planning on changing the ECU (which hopefully you are not with an NA skyline) BTW your mileage may not be that far off, these are heavy old tech cars, and being NA might mean you use a heavy foot to keep up with traffic....
    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
