Hey, i recall reading that certain skyline engines have issues with atmo bov's. I'm currently in the market for a bov but don't wanna shell out money for something that's gonna cause issues with my engine.

Any suggestions on what bov to get for the RB20det? Is there an option on some bov's to switch them to plumback if the atmo venting is causing problems?

Thanks

EDIT: Also, does a plumback blow off valve make an audible noise while driving? If it doesn't, then i guess i may aswell stick to the stock one for now?

The only issue (noticeable issue that is) my RB20det has with the atmo bov is that if you try to hold the revs around 4000rpm it flips out and jerks around a lot, like it gets air then doesnt, then gets air, then doesnt etc.

It is a Sard R2D2 and I have no stalling/idling issues.

P.S. It will be for sale as soon as I get the standard bov back on :(

Approximately how much will it be for sale for?

People have issues mainly dependant on driving style.

I know some people that have issues, and some that dont. But they drive differently to each other.

So take the chance if you feel the need.

Just to note: there is no performance gain by removing the stock one, just to clear that one for you

1. Keep the stock BOV.

2. Yes some aftermarket BOV have both atmo and plumb back outlets.

3. PLumb back BOV (including the stock one) make a noise when driving, especially if a pod filter is fitted too.

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
