hey ppls

i put my gtr bov on my r33 gtst today. i used a bigger radiator pipe to hook her up. anyways when i was testing her out when i get to like 5000rpm on or off boost it car would make this drrrrrrrr noise, quickly and you could feel it loosing power / boost gauge was going down. If you like held it at say 5psi after a few seconds it would make the noise then drop down. So i instaled it again with new hose clamps and it did the same thing. Then i put my stock gtst one back on incase i screwed something and it was fine. So i put the gtr one back on.. and it was leaking again.

I noticed the bov has the hole on the side just under the hat thingy, i didnt think gtr bov's had that hole ?? maybe if i plug her up or something :) ?

When you press the spring thingy in the bov its quite loose also, if thats good ??

just wondering if theres anything i can try besides another gtr bov to see weather if my install or the actual bov itsself ??

dont have a working gtr bov yet so im uncool still...

sounds pretty much the same, maybe a little bit louder, but its one of those things were i could just be imagining it :)

It seems abit laggier than my stock gtst bov though, but im guessing thats cause my gtst bov has the little hole plugged up?

:laughing-smiley-014:

How cool are you now that you have a working one..

how much faster is your car?

a real question though..

is the sound any different?

Be Super Uber crazy cool, and buy my GTR BOV's. For just $150 each you can enjoy the type of turbo response that Nissan envisaged for its Group A racing cars! OMG, Jizz Godzilla

Serious, PM me, and you can feel the true power that is valve springy flap flap diaphragm toosh toosh! Sound guaranteed or your money back

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
