wow, never thought my thread would go there so fast. ok so one more question. i have an aftermarket hks mushroom filter on the stock intake tube. my blow off is really loud. ive got a fmic and intake head and catback. the rest is stock. i kinda just wanted to get rid of the stock pipe whre the bov sits and move the bov. i kinda also like the flutter sound.

abu, what were you talking about flutter earlier

I think you mean you want to have a flutter sound right?

remove your bov (2 bolts, 2 clamps)

cut out a piece of sheet metal the same shape as the base of your bov and drill the holes for the 2 bolts.

put that under the bov and plug it all back in as it was.

now you have blocked off your bov and it looks stock.

you will get flutter.

then, once you get annoyed of the car not acting as it should, you can easily just remove the plate under the bov and be back to normal.

why don't you just stop the standard bov leaking and leave everything the way its meant to be, bov's and flutter just mean more unwanted attention which at the end of the day will cost you more in $$ with the cops when they start defecting you (not to mention the wank factor)

or just buy the GTR bov and fit that like everyone else has said, people on here don't come on just to hang shit on everyone (dunno bout everyone but meh..) and you ask for answers and people have given you the right answers...

the best thing about SAU is that no matter what your question is, someone else has already been through the same thing, they are talking from experience, f**k the atmo bov off, don't block your bov cos you'll end up with the back of stock turbo in your muffler

gtr bov is plumback.

it can "blow off" more air than the gtst one.

but the gtst one is also good for well over 200rwkw.

GTR's have 2 bovs as standard.

they sit in the drivers side front guard.

gtst owners usually upgrade to a single gtr bov.

each gtr bov can breath more air and for this to happen, the OUTLET is larger in diameter.

to fit to a gtst, it will bolt on to the stock gtst bov position, but you will have to get a larger diameter PLUMBACK line.

NO, you can't vent the gtr bov to atmo.

not having a bov will not break the back wheel of your turbo.

if anything, it's the front wheel that "could" be damaged.

No the stock gtst ones don't leak after 10 psi.

No it doesn't matter which gtr bov you get.

expect to pay about $150 for the pair or half that if someone is selling one.

Or you could buy this!

that is old skool

been around for like 5 years.

why would you buy it when you can get a screw and stick it in there yourself?

the little hole is there for a reason.

it helps to open and shut the bov faster.

if it's blocked, the car feels a little more jerky on the transition point from boost to vacuum.

as in when you back off from the accelerator in a gradual fashion (like when you drive on the street)

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
