How do I quieten my stock blow off valve without putting my air box back in? I have a FMIC and the box doesn't fit anymore because of the cooler piping :D

I took my car to the licensing centre to get my yellow off but they said I have to quieten the bov somehow, and then they'll give me a permit for my cooler and my pod filter :confused:

I admit it's pretty loud, but it's totally stock!

What can I do!

Cheers :)

JiMiH my stocker bov was f'in loud when i had to get mine registered, they couldnt say a thing though because the compliance engineer had passed the air filter I had and therefore theres no possible way to shut the damn thing up!

I hate the sound of the standard one, its so bloody loud its not funny.

R33's must have the recirc pipe further down the line. I think the problem on the R32 occurs because the recirc pipe joins right before the air filter.

Just take the standard one off and bolt a plate over the hole, its not illegal NOT to have a bov now is it! Just get the yellow off and put the bov back on.

Cheers for the replies guys :)

That's a good idea about putting a plate over the whole thing i might just do that .... failing that I'll be up to your house Steve :)

I went to the Welshpool pits (they also didn't pass me because I have a chrome-look cup on my boost guage :) )

How do you put up with that shit?!!?

I admit, I haven`t been in Oz for quite a while, but that is just freekin crazy! On what grounds would they not pass you for chrome on a boost guage? Did I just type that...? *chrome on a boost guage*... yes I did...:confused:

The reason for pillar mounted guages being a problem is if they are within a certain radius of your head (can't remember number)and could be struck by it in an accident. Vision wise, as they are off to the side I don't believe they are a problem.

i have Blitz BOV on my car and i have it permitted as well as my Filter and FMIC. on my permit sayd BOV not to be too loud hahah thast the funniest shit i have ever heard coz it is loud as f@#k. I went to welshpool. They didnt pass my pillar guage coz yes was chrome and the light reflection was the only problem. I taped it up with tape and toook it back over (they passd it) its all a crock of BS if you ask me. My car handles and stops better than most cars out there yet i still get yellows for mods even if they are improvements. But what can you do. Cops should learn a little about cars and mods b4 they go out in the world and tell us what is and isnt wrong.

With little choice, its a police state here, ironically, they'll sticker a jap import for stupid reasons, yet a smokeing POS with bald tyres and rust throughout will drive on by and not get a second look

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      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.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
