they hold more boost and they are less "leaky" in that they'll show positive boost (on the stock gauge) at less throttle than the gtst one. they bolt on but the recirc hose is a different diameter. the gtst one wont fit. you should be able to source a gtr one from a wreckers somewhere

cheers bro :banana: any figures on how much boost it can hold im looking at 17 psi >? thanks

i've got no idea sorry but i'd also like to know the answer seeing as im running one on my car

Id like to know as well, i have a gtst bov and i run just under 1bar, also do you have a pic of your bov basti to show how you hooked yours up?

i've just got it bolted in the stock location. i couldnt stretch the gtst pipe to fit over the outlet so i found some radiator hose that did, and shoved my stock rubber pipe inside and clamped the lot as tight as i could. now cos the stock pipe(inside the rad hose) is sitting right up against the outlet of the bov, it vibrated every time it vents and makes a honking noise. very annoying but functionally its fine. i'll get a pic up in a bit

so it bolts on fine and the small pipe fits on ok but the other fat pipe that goes stright to the centre of the bov is smaller ? so you put smaller radiator hose inside the old hose to make it tighter so it fitted is that right hahah..sorry dude just trying to get my head around it ..if you can post up some pics that would be awesome :banana:

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
