HI all

I have just bought a R33 GTST25T V II

Its back in with the dealer because the engine was stalling when I tried to change to the next gear and clutch was pressed for longer then 2-3 seconds.

They said that my after market BOV is causing the problem and replaced it with the stock one.

My question is that I bought this car with a decent BOV and now I'll get a standard one, should I get some sort of reimbursement?

And finally does any one had this sort of problem?

Why can't I have after market BOV installed?.

Any feedback welcome.

This is the biggest problem with a BOV that's not suited to the engine. My guess is the unit isn't closing quickly enough, which effectivly releases all your intake air to atmosphere. So obviously your going to stall. You either need to re-work/re-adjust the valve for quicker closing or try another style/type/brand. Doubt they're going to give you any money back man, sorry!

    • Back on topic for you for a post Will it be on pump or ethanol? 2025 Spec RB build: G30 660 .83 would be good  artec manifold turbosmart 45mm external gate 1000cc Injectors Kelford cams 264 and springs Pistons and rods for insurance Oil pump with billet gears Headdrain and all good oil mods Quality intercooler 3.5 inch dump pipe to decent exhaust Link plugin Ecu or what ever your tuning is comforatble with Bolt on Trigger Kit - Nzwiring kit is go to ARP Headstuds Quality headgasket quality fuel pump- a TI/walbro 525lph PWM would be the go Quality fuel reg Will be over $15K AUD Enjoy the noise of rb on gate at over 7400rpm. Start looking for gearbox conversions if your hard on the gear. Now I've been there and done that with rb powered street car (2007-2022) much prefer newer stuff. Anything 90's Japanese is not a great experience these days and highly over rated. My 2015 Brz with a heap of suspension mods is such a better car even with out the power of my old s chassis' even on track. If wanting to play light chassis and decent power for a  giggle a k swap 86/brz would be the go Check my old build for engine stuff I really need to pay attention to post 2016 BMW stuff but seem all very heavy 1600+kg  
    • I mean, the 240i is not a Supra... make it drop a few hundred kg, have a sportscar chassis, clearance for wheels etc... Maybe I want a hardtop Z40i XDrive or something :p I do agree with you though and have long said the B58 Supra/240i/340i/440i is the new R Chassis/JDM90's turbo rocket for mod lovers to ... not always appreciative response lol. Doesn't make it not true though.
    • I will do the build myself but I will be paying for the tune because I don't know how much about that and would rather it be done right and by a professional 
    • Will you build and tune it yourself or do you need to pay for labour? 
    • Mechanically that's essentially what the M240i is, it's just not pretending it's not a BMW
