Not Another Silly Atmo Bov Question

Hi Ya'll,

I have a stock plumb back on my s2 r33... It has a trust front mount, 11 psi of boost, high-flow turbo...

When I change in-between gears it seems to hesitate and kangaroo a little bit... Wondering if this is because the BOV isn't opening fully and the pressurised air isn't getting out properly??? The BOV does make a bit of a fluttering noise...

Cheers

does spound like it is not opening fulling forcing the boosted air thru the turbo causing a flutter.

Yeah it kinda does... The car bucks when I change gear, so it I was worried that something is causing the airflow to be interupted

I had a similar issue although not exactly... I went to a Nissan/Jap wreckers, got me a BOV from a soon to be wrecked R33 gtst(you can pick em up in the For Sale section as well), bolted her on and presto problem solved. Maybe you can service your current BOV.

IANAM (I am not a mechanic) :(

what ecu do you have?

What AFM do you have?

If you have a stock one of either, I can guarantee the problem lies there

You my friend have hit the donkey on the head. I have stock AFM and ECU.... Is it the extra pressurised air in the system (due to larger turbo and front mount) causing the ECU to behave like a pork chop? If so, hows that? I'm not hitting R&R or fuel cut....

There you go

I had a stock AFM and powerfc and I was getting the exact same problem between gear changes etc too.

But just remember the the R&R hits at about 10+psi on the standard turbo, which means it would be 9psi \ 8psi on a Highflow because it is moving more air volume.

You really need to get some form of aftermarket management - so go and pick up yourself a Powerfc and a Z32 AFM, and 90% of your problems will go away.

how much power u making from that setup?

At the moment I am making somewhere around 190rwkw... Although I think the dyno I ran it on was reading high.... So not sure, somewhere around that though I think....

But just remember the the R&R hits at about 10+psi on the standard turbo, which means it would be 9psi \ 8psi on a Highflow because it is moving more air volume.

I hit for some reason R&R about 12psi... Well at least I hit MORE R&R at that stage.... The car seems ok atm...

I am planning on putting a GReddy EMU in within the next couple of months.... Hopefully that will let me finish off the engine mods for the time being and go about my way with the suspension...

Will get ECU!!!! I PROMISE!!!! Dont quite get how that is causing the air to bounce around though... Surely it is a mechanical issue rather then a tuning issue... THOUGH - I know there are issues caused by having mods and no ECU and that I'm sure I have some of them, dont understand how it would be casuing this issue

will drop it this afternoon... Heres a question then: If I drop it back, and it is presently R&Ring, will I immediately notice that it isnt R&Ring? Or does it take time for the ECU to learn?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
