i have bought a turbosmart type2 veeport bov and installed it on my skyline.

now my car keeps stalling and ive followed the instruction and tightened the spring but it still stalls,we have checked over it and theres no leaks,no blockages and no collapsed or twisted hose.

i got the spring as tight as it could go and it still stalled so i ended up taking it off and put the factory part back on and it runs perfect and doesnt stall and now i have wasted $400 on the adapter and bov.

im confused to why it stalls,hope yous can help me out.

The car is overfuelling due to the ATMO BOV.

The car expects the re-circ BOV to be there, its tuned for it.

Hence when you put it back it works fine.

So you have two choices.

Get a ECU & tune it ($1500)

Or go back to the stock one... which is is how Nissan intended it to be :D

Nothing wrong with the stock BOV so not really sure why you would want to change it anyhow.

installing a HKS Fuel Cut Defender should override this problem? i think.

i experienced the same with my Blitz. I didnt mind the stalling every now and then, but i removed it to avoid the boys in blue.

The stock one does its job well enough!

as previously mentioned.. maybe investigate if you can adapt that BOV back to a plumb back .

also vac leaks can be quite hard to track down .. make sure you look for cracks at the places where other pipes join the inlet ( if there are any )

to be honest I was really impressed by the stock recirc valve on the rb25det NEO .. looked very well made! and at least if you have a recirc BOV the boys in blue have got one less thing to bend you over for !

and if you have a pod you should still hear the BOV noise.

ive heard alot of specualtion, but how much boost can a standard r32 gtst bov handle?

has anyone had a problem running 17-18 psi thru one?

im ready to put my stocka back on and see if it helps with the stalling..

From what I've read on SAU, the standard 32 gtst bov can handle about 14psi before it starts to leak if I remember correctly. If you want to run the standard plumb back system, I think you can just get the GTR's bov and put it in its place. They handle up to about 20-ish psi.

Feel free to correct me.

Its wierd mine has worked fine on the car and it has never stalled. Might change it back just cos it gets annoying sometimes. Did you make sure you used the gasket between the bov and the intake pipe?

My tuner told me this as well that the reason the car will stall is because it has a AFM system, he said it I want to do it properly I need to delete that system, he said I can try it though to see how it goes. My BOV recirculates btw (can hear flutter sometimes though), how do s15's and stuff not stall and they also have the AFM system? I was considering blocking it off for ovbious reasons but was hesistant because of the above.

By changing to a Halaltech and not having an AFM, typically. Or, they stall or otherwise carry on.

A lot of them are driven by p platers with stock ecu's lol. When does the stalling usually happen is it high speeds?

If you block off the BOV entirely you will get reversion out of the MAF and get a lean spike instead of a rich spike as the MAF double-counts the airflow.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
