after Guy fitted my BOV on for me (HKS SSQV) my car was getting more km's out of a tank, and it was backfiring when i gave it stick causing the flames... awesome...

is genuine HKS... Sunny dude, i would take out your BOV and just sell it and get a genuine HKS... china BOV's = super ghey

100km's less out of a tank is not worth the wank factor, more km's is though

As Bubba said, it wont run rich unless the BOV is actuating.

If the BOV is actuating under load. Its not tight enough.

Properly working Atmospheric BOV's will only 'smoke' and run 'rich' when they need to "Blow off" extra air. (And that's to do with changes in Load)

Just tighten it, make it work properly.

That 'Extra' fuel coming through the exhaust would have just gotten burnt by an unloaded engine anyway. Which will not effect your economy. Really, its not extra fuel, because it was going to get injected anyway.

(On a side note, AT A GUESS, because the princeples of induction may counter this - if you plumb back a bov in front of the AFM, you will read that portion of air twice, and then there will be 'extra' fuel injected.)

Your smoke on load is a sign the BOV may not be operating correctly.

I think im just repeating what people have said ?

However there are some myth's being said too.

its got nothing to do with the bov spring being tight enough.

its got to do with the stock bov recirculates the air back into the intake pipe. atmosphere bov vents to the air. therefore less air in the intake

less air + same fuel = running rich. its very common problem, atmo venting bov are complete wank factor nothing wrong with stock bov i had no issue running one with 350rwhp and if yours is leaking get a set of gtr bov

Are you saying all atmospheric bov's will reduce fuel economy ?

Retract this, ive realised stock setups dont plumb back infront of the afm:

The guy was saying that he was getting lots of black smoke UNDER LOAD not on liftoff. Puffs of black smoke on liftoff or gearchange is normal with an atmo bov that hasn't been tuned for it. PLUMES OF BLACK SMOKE UNDER LOAD IS NOT JUST BECAUSE THE BOV IS ATMO. Something is wrong and it is most likely leaking when it shouldn't be.

wank factor?

Whats wrong with atmo bov's? I quite like mine.

As long as they arent overly loud.. they sound nice =)

If you like the sound of Harpo Marx sneezing or the amplified noise of a mouse being squashed, I'm sure they sound real good to you.

These noises are in no way associated with any kind of 'power' experience. If you like repeditive 'pachoo' and squeaking noises then Fisher Price has a great range of electronic musical toys on offer this christmas.

I reckon they should make them sound like farts at least then they have better comedy value.

My kids (incuding the 3yr old) now point at cars and say 'ricer!' when they hear these.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
