i always thought that the flutter noise caused by VLs and other cars is because there is to much air being forced into the car but for no where to go after that?

After watching the HKS R34 on youtube in action i absolutely love the sound it makes. i never was a fan of the flutter but damn it sounds sexi. i urge anyone who loves or hates the sound to watch it.

my question is....if this is bad for the turbo...because the air is being forced back and around the exhaust/turbo.

why has HKS allowed this to happeN?

and its not just HKS.........

I have looked over that car in person in Japan and its modified beyond your wildest dreams anDru, its not some sick VL with a pod filter and intercooler.

i have the high performance imports mag review on the car and i know wats inside.

i jsut want to know why.....after so much modding there is still excess air not being released...or in short why is it still fluttering?

i swear if i could id make my car the exact same sound drooooooooolz

lol gotta love that drift king tchuchiya

"ish likes dish one"

sorry but im gonna have to quote u

Dont quote me here but i think the reason they dont put blow off valves on it is so that it has quick off-on throttle response.

Think about it, its HKS... do they care if their turbo dies?

but is that the only thing dat gets damaged....the turbo?.........nothign else?

oh and can someone tell me...the stock turbo on a r34 gtt. if i had no bov...compared to one that did.

how much faster are we guessing the turbo will die....if both cars are treated equally. (theres always someone who has to get smart and say shit like that)

Wouldnt recommend taking it off. Guess Nissan did put the blow off valve there for a reason.

Blocking it or taking it off will cause you to run rich, as in popping almost every gear change, and cause your car to frequently stall.

As for the life of a stock turbo, the wheel is ceramic. People's ceramic turbo's fail with blow off valves, so imagine without :|

Ive got a similar 'flutter' sound from my turbo!..talkin' to a guy at my local w'shop he said Ive a 'soft turbo'!! is this the same thing?? the explanation he gave me is much like whats been said already by the guys above...Im gonna keep it anyway sounds to good to lose :D

lol

* takes away andruu's thread making privlidges

yeah. coz inspecting the car in person, and reading about in HPI are totally the same :D

no its not the same but u get a preety rough idea of wat its got...compared to someone who just saw it on youtube......

    • Hi all,   anyone know where I can pick one of these up for a reasonable price? I just resprayed my rear trunk due to fuel stain and my new muse spat install.    added a photo for some content 馃ぃ馃憤   thanks 
    • Consider a 35 too...
    • He's right ~ there is no 'magic' with stuff like this ... it is more likely that in the process of looking for the short, the loom/wire 'incidentally' got moved in the process, thus removing the short ~ now, that maybe a wire (in a loom) rubbing against the edge of some grounded metal, that's worn through the insulation, causing the (now intermittent) short to ground. If one wire in a loom has been damaged in this fashion, it's reasonable to presume that other wires beside it may have also be damaged, and now exposed...you can bet the green crusty copper corrosion will start... ...that'd be a pisser, Murphy's Law steps right in as GTS observes...but worse, something like that is easier to find when shorted...ie; unplug bulb and fuse, and put multimeter in continuity mode so you get constant beep, and carefully poke about hoping to find if some movemet of the harness stop the beeping.... ...it's still all a bit Arnie tho' ..It'll be back... 馃槂
    • Yeah, but knowledge of one wire's insulation worn through to short on earth implies the possibility of other wires doing the same. I had my power steering die, because the wire that runs to the solenoid valve on the rack runs in the same loom as the power wire for the O2 sensor. And when the O2 sensor/wire did something stupid and burnt part of that loom to death, the only indication was the shit(ter) fuel economy and the heavy steering. It took deep excavation of the looms in the bay to find the problem. Not wear through in that case, but similar shit.
    • Ah, I thought he'd wired it to one of the spare ECU inputs! Too long ago since I read that post, ha ha. I've been arguing with radiators, harmonic balancers, alternators and rust since reading it.
