Its an air bypass valve these are found on a lot of nissan type motors (R31- R33 that ive seen), it is used to allow air to bypass the throttle body during warmup (one side of it is connected to the inlet pipe the normally crosses the top of the motor before the throttle its connected the inch thick hose that is next to the BOV and the other side connects to the aac valve body after the throttle). It functions sort of like opening the throttle.

I belive BUT not sure it electricly is only a heater that closes the valve as its heated and is powered the entire time the ign is on. Disconecting it wont affect the computers functions though the car may struggle to idle smothly when cold.

Most people have never seen it because its normally mounted under the inlet.

anyone else?

Damqik.
