in the riceness?? dude, you realise your on a skyline forum right? you work at retravision or somethin?? :)

Hang on there. My GTR doesn't have neons or a dose pipe. It's a skyline but, it's not "ricey".

Rice is what you have once you desend into the realm of it. The pointless noise and looks dept.

Be proud either way I say. If you are ricey then just be there :banana:

Rice is Serious Business

a few of you has met my friend Leigh and knows the problem he is having with his car. he bought a bov from autoworks and had them install it along with a pod filter. the car shoots out alot of black smoke when the cars in neutral and when driving most of the time there is smoke coming out of the zorst. the bov has been tightened all the way to the end and stil opens at low boost without any surging. when driving up and down the street and coming to a stop the revs dipped once or twice but stopped, but after along drive from beechboro utopia we stopped at a car park to check his oil and it constantly kept dropping until we revved it abit. i know putting the stock one will make the idle problem stop but with the black smoke there seemed to be less black smoke after we tighted it so would this help with the smoke aswell? do you need a tune for a pod filter?

black smoke = less air in cylinder then the ECU thinks there is. Causing it to inject more fuel (rich)

bov tightened brought the air - fuel ratio closer to correct.

but there is air still escaping from the induction path, somewhere after the AFM and before the cylinders.

gaskets, clamps, hoses, check everything.

when you cant find anything else, change the bov to something you know that works. if that fixes it. you know there is something wrong with the bov.

simple fault finding here.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
