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)

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
