hmmmmmmm... just thinking y u would think a piece of machinery that has been moving up and down billions of times could never break down, loose its seal...

I would guess that for a given motor, the pistons in the motor would have gone up and down a couple of thousand times more than the piston in the BOV, i know what i would expect to leak first.

That information is WAY off..

god there are some dumbshits on here

ok here i go

stock r33 bov which is NOT PLUMBED back so its running into the atmosphere ok

car runs on map sensor and i dont have all the stock plumbed back piping shit so i ran it atmosphere

bov leaks like a heap of shit,must i explain myself any fkn further or are u just another keyboard warrior wanker on here who pays every other c**t to do shit on there car?

thanx good day

Ok, first i'll quote your initial post.

stock bovs are rubbish, leaking heaps of shit, done a trip 2 brissy other weekend, running stock bov, f**kin heap of shit leaking the whole time on light throttle could hear it just in vacum, so fkn annoying

Now for Abu's post in reply to yours.

Now again yours in reply to Abu.

Now I have much respect for you and this will not change my views on you. Same goes to abu, I feel he is a much respected member on this forum and he provides very usefull info and so do you also.

Now you've left out a very important piece of info in you first post and I have highlighted that above. Any person reading your initial post is not going to assume that you ran your stock bov to the atmosphere....thus in your view putting it in the piece of crap catagory.

As others have experienced, the stock bov is not crap if it is used as it was intended to be used, as a recirculating valve. Abu's reply was not out of line.

In fact it was your post that was mis-informing by leaving out a critical part of information.

Explanation and informaton is the key my friend.

So it turns out that it is not abu, but you that is the keyboard warrior today. Maybe your just having an off day, but regardless, the name throwing and "going off" at abu wasn't necessary.

I intend no offence to you by this post.

Thankyou for your time.

Fellas, I think we've just gone a bit over board... back on topic...

I need an atmospheric BOV to not stall my car - how to do this?

I need the sucking and shshttt sound... man, I need it bad.

No it will not work.

Your AFM measures how much air is going into the engine, the ecu then uses that measuement of air going in to work out hom much fuel put in.

When you put on a BOV that vents air back to atmosphere (makes thats loud pschhh) your computer (thinking the air is still in the engine) puts in way too much fuel. This results in stalling, stuttering, big black exhaust smoke and a generally shithouse driving experience.

A 50/50 BOV still dumps 50% of the air that the ecu expects, so it still causes a problem. Just leave it stock FFS!

*On a side note I changed my spark plugs on the weekend and forgot to put the BOV return pipe back on, as i changed gears i got the atmo bov noise. But it made the car feel so sluggish on gear changes, spat so much black smoke I cant imagine how anyone could deal with that just for a little ghey sound*

Yeah mate, thanks so much for your advice... it is much appreciated....

You ironed it out nicely - enough said, I concur with your point (and those others have made too)...

That's right fellas... stock then it works and runs better but no sound... atmo BOV and the car runs lean, stalls like shit and performs less efficiently.... ok, I'll go stock... thanks.

have you been reading??

the GFB Stealth-fx does what you want.......................

Apparently it doesn't... as it's only 50 50 plumb back... if I plumb it all back then same thing as stock.

Thanks.

No its not, you can adjust it to fully plumb back or fully atmo, or any config in between. The whole idea of this BOV is so you adjust the volume of the noise you want, i have this on my car and if you set it up right the car doesn't stall on full atmo. I live in NSW and unfortunately it is a defect here, Although i had mine adjust to full plumb back the cop said i could adjust it at any time so defect time. And i too got sick of the noise thats why i had it full PB. I don't know about the laws in VIC.

Full atmo on your bov is just like full atmo on any other bov mate.

PLEASE LOCK THIS THREAD. I cant take it anymore!!!

stolen s15 could you please explain what you mean?

I think you taken my reply the wrong way, i was reply to his post stating that the GFB FX was a 50/50 BOV i was only trying to clear this up by saying it could 100% atmo, 100% plump or anything in beween. I too have gone back to stock.

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
