Hi

yeah like i said, which BOV sounds like a the sphincter of the universe, you know, it kinda has that funny on off on off flutter sound.

I don't like BOV's cos they couse the car to run crap, but i was interested to see if you can get BOVs that will sound like that if they are plum back.

IF not, can you get something like this to work ok, has anyone used these before or anything.

I know, this thread had no replys for like 2 weeks, you've probably forgotten about it. But if you remove the BOV all together (And block all the holes up) it'll go "chuff chuff chuff" as the compressor stalls.

It WON'T hurt your turbo like heaps of people beleive.

Old turbos used to die from it (The first designed ones) but with modern machining practices, that's a thing of the past.

If you want to hear what it sounds like, rip the hose off that goes from the inlet manifold, to the stock BOV off, and block it with your finger, with the engine running, give the car a good flick of the revs (You can do it from in bonnet) and you'll hear the new noise.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
