Eh, I was going to keep it, but I would never install it.. so, someone else may as well scare small children!

As the subject states, for sale is a Turbosmart Vee-port blow off valve. Looks pretty. Look, picture!

Comes with an adapter to fit onto VR4/evo pipework.. so, it should fit GTST pipes no worries.

They're 300 bucks new.. I'd be happy with 100 bucks. Or, if anyone plays guitar, I will trade for a decent quality volume pedal (Morley, Ernie Ball etc).

I'm selling it as it is unfortunately incompatible with my piping kit. Basically, it hits my shifter cable.

It is not plumb-back. A plumb back BOV is one that vents back into the intake system. This particular blow off valve vents air direct to atmosphere, and makes a quite loud "psssh" noise. Great for scaring small dogs.

Anyway, as far as I'm aware, it will bolt straight on to a skyline, you guys basically have the same flange and even the same BOV as evos/VR4's. Someone will no doubt correct me if I am wrong. Just unbolt the stocky, put some sealant on the gasket, bolt it on. Connect vacuum hose. Additionally, you would have to block off the part where your stock BOV reconnects to your intake (not hard, just find a rubber bung or something like that, hose clamp it on nice and tight).

And finally.. and someone will probably have to talk you through this.. I think using an atmo BOV such as this one creates problems with skylines, as there are issues with unmetered air.

I am in SA, I have no problems posting it though. Will probably cost 15 bucks or so (it's sort of heavy).

Edit: Just did a search, the unmetered air thing is just if you don't plug the plumb-back hole up (obvious).

Also, the other problem is stalling due to weak springs in the BOV allowing it to open when it's not meant to. This thing is practically new, and the spring is adjustable, so if you have a stalling issue, just tighten the spring.

Hope this helps

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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.
