Hey guys I got a 96 S2 Gtst

Just got a Turbosmart supersonic bov and adapter and all was going good for a couple days...

Then just tonight i gave it a few revs standing still n noticed to the revs droped a lil bit lower than usaul then sometimes when i take off then netrual it till i stop it stalls? I have played around with the tension of the Bov as it says to do so but cant seem to find the right spot for it. I dont understand why it doing it now, was ok last couple of days, any thoughts?

Thanks

it happened to me when i got my turbosmart type 2 veeport blowoff valve.

no matter how hard you get the tension it will keep stalling.

if you have a stock computer,then thats the reason it stalls cause the bov vents and the computer is only tuned for the stock bov which re-circulates it.

i ended up putting my stock one back on and no more stalling or you could get a good ecu $1500 and get it tuned for it.

I dont know if you want to stall in the middle of an intersection with a huge semi-trailer heading straight towards you...

Or on a freeway...

Is ur life worth a little "vroom choo?"

One of our family friend died because of that (in his brand new manual Audi, left his wife and children....)

It only stalls when i stop sharply, after ive bin driving for a long time. eg, i went out for a spin last night for a couple hours, all goin good.. then went for sum maccas, pulled into drive thru braked put foot on clutch then stall. then had a lil trouble wif idle, then when back on road again all good.

You do point out a good note thought.

Thats no good jimmytim, sorry to hear that.

All is good now, I made a new gasket for the BOV and sealed it with some gasket goo also, and thorughly cleaned out throtle body etc. Running better than ever now :) Iv tried so hard to make it stall but all is good, and no idle troubles.

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
