hahaha ok :(

Ok so i dont really care about flutter, a little flutter wouldnt bother me but thats not what im after, i just want a tighter, bit more aggressive bov sound. So suits the car better. Im sick of the simple woosh of the stock one. I want it to have a little punch. But nothing TOO crazy.

Greddy plumb back or SSQV?

lol

there is a diy/tutorial on how to tighten the stock bov. you put a screw in one of the holes, but i never really looked into it. if you want it to go off tighter, thats exactly what you have to do; tighten it up. if all the air goes through quicker it will have to be more forceful and louder i guess.

Gtr ones do fit, but they may not be much different. i'm running a BOV from an r34, but my airbox is damped so i dont get much noise (plus exhaust is too loud)

it only flutters if you lift off to make it flutter in that situation, used to do it in my hks one, a light lift off and reapplication on the freeway and chuchuchu.. a normal gearchange and tss. a flutter occurs when the pressure let off is not enough to pop the spring in the bov, so air chugs through the compressor

I have the GFB Stealth FX

When it is on plumb back mode it is far louder and deeper sounding than the stock BOV was...but that difference may come from the fact that I was running 12psi with the stock one and now I am running 22psi so it is actually passing alot more air?

Jeffworld2 and i played around with some things using my stock bov and we had it fluttering and all that, but as i said before, i dont care about flutter. Infact i'd prefer to have none now after experiencing it first hand. It's simply gay. What i want is just a normal blow off noise but instead of a loose wooshy sound i have now, a more punchier kinda sound. Follow?

instead of having the a/m one switch to plumb-back or atmo, totally block the polumback one and you will have no issues. if you want flutters, just put a blanking plate on the stocker your pod will do the rest.

Good way to make your car stall when you pull up at the lights :/

So the GTR one is not plumb back by default? Is it easy to do?

Yeah they are plumback, but my RB25 was made to be atmo for no reason... so I'd need some pipe and a t piece adaptor or whatever to set it up plumback, if you're replace a stock rb25 plumbed back bov, it will attach just fine afaik.

how exactly? it would be the same as running no bov, it will not make a sound (will flutter through pod, but no woosh) and cannot cause any issues other than perhaps overfuelling on gear changes as air flutters out through the afm instead of being recirculated. only when the valve is opened to atmo will you get a woosh.

i had an hks ssqv on my 33 since it was delivered from japan, never had a stalling issue. its all about setup and the spring strength. i have since run without bov at all for a week and now run stock BOV from an R34GTT, but its the same part really as stock 33.

if you don't understand what i was trying to explain in that post, don't reply, or if you do reply like XIZOR did

jeff i dont have the slightest what your on about with most of that

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
