Hey folks.

I've done alot of googling and foruming, but haven't really come across much regarding BOV specifics. IE, what will fit :D

I had looked at cheaper GFB $200 ones, which may do what I want.

Anyhoo, stock GTS-T RB25DET, not even a pod filter ;) What would be a reasonable upgrade, and more towards the BOVs that whoooosh, as apposed to chatter (too too too to tooo).

Point me to any threads about this, search didn't bring anything up for some reason :S

Cheers

the std one is fine and works well, if you change your airfilter it will become louder

there's no need to change / replace the stocker with an airfilter, its plenty loud

go for a quick lap around the block with the top of your airbox panel removed - youll see how loud it is

You just need a r33 adaptor plate to fit or weld

You get woosh when its loose and to to too when its tight , pod and fmic will increase flutter. some cars very with loudness with this.

How loud do you want it?

Personally i am getting over my megasonic and am thinking of going back stock, plus it performs better apparently. I personally like the turbosmart sounds and can't stand the hks whistle, dont know how its the most popular

If you car is completely stock i would imagine a more worthwhile upgrade would be to put the $200 towards an exhaust or a CAI. The bov will give you no gain whatsoever.

There are no bov's that "chatter." Thats just compressor surge by having the bov blocked off, removed or having the bov spring too tight.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
