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.

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)

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
