If someone could please post a pic of their R34 GTT engine bay with the HKS SSQ fitted, that would be unreal. I could just follow your lead.

Thanks heaps for all your help people.

okai CON heres the rundown.

you have 2 options.

Option 1 is ATMO = atmo just required you to remove "BOV" (see picture below) and replace it with the SSQV, aswell as pluggin the original Vacumm hose(see pic) into the SSQV BOV ONLY IF YOU HAVE THE ADPATER TO SUIT YOUR CAR!!!!!

if you dont have the adapter.......welding is required which = more time = more money

Option 2 is Plumb Back = same Process as option 1 but you will require a PLumb Back Kit (official term by HKS is called a "Return Nipple") if you have this its pretty much a swap and plug n play.

If you dont have the return Nipple and your want your bov to be plumbed back, youll need to modify your exisiting plumb back system to suit the ssqv, which can be a long process.

are you in melb con? if u are let us know pop around sometime ill get it fitted for ya.

in the above picture, the black hose is a "VACUM HOSE" supplied with your HKS BOV.....it is recommended that you use this one because its newer, but you can use the one thats still on your car =]

any questions dont hesitate to ask

U use that plastic bit to cover the return plump back. IF your not plumping it back.

Its a filter :devil:

my hks ssq was a striaght bolt.. reason is, i didnt plum back... undo both bolts on stock bov, remove bov, dis connect the plum back hose, plug with that black bung you got in the plastic bag, tighten up the hose clamp around the bung, bolt on hks ssq, small vacuum line goes into the little ufo lookin thingy...lol... other hose connects directly to the bov... peace of pish!!

Btw i have a 34 just in case you were wondering!!

HAY GUYS THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL YOUR INFO, I FITTED THE BOV LAST FRIDAY AND ITS WORKING WELL.

I LEFT IT ATMOSPHERIC AS THE OFFSET BETWEEN MY BOV AND RETURN PIPE ARE ABOUT 2 INCHES OFF.

I HAVE TO SAY THAT I FELT AN IMMEDIATE POWER DROP SINCE FITTING THE HKS BOV. UNTIL I AM READY TO PLUMB BACK MY HKS I AM CONSIDERING TO PUT THE FACTORY BOV BACK ON SO I CAN GET THE AIR CIRCULATING AGAIN.

DID ANYONE OUT HERE ALSO FEEL A DROP IN POWER WHEN FITTING AN ATMO BOV?

lol yeah it should even slightly increase ur turbo response apparently. but i know for a fact ur car will run crappy (as in not smooth) with atmo bov cuz mine does it :blink: but not with stock ones but still it doesn't drop power or boost

Edited by R33Turbo
If it's sound you want, I wouldn't install it onto your R34 GTT as the HKS BOV won't give you nice sound until you run a bucket load of boost through it...

Again...thats a load of absolute BS...we have told you before that you DO NOT need high boost on this bov to get that sound...it just needs some adjustment...and if it still needs very high boost to open...the BOV is faulty...

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
