my car is at home in perth and im in qld on holidays at mates place and i want to make a plate to fit over the standard bov on the rb20det at home as all the gear is here to do it myself.

does any one have the dimentions from center of bolt to bolt?

and over all length and overall with. probably make it 6mm thick.

its to block it off so can install after market bov lower on the pipe.

AND WHAT IS THE DIAMETER OF THE HOLES TO FIT THE STOCK BOLTS?

IMO - Just use a coke can, and puncture it for the screw holes... you'll find the screws might even do it easily enough.

Ye its ghetto, but its easier, faster and you get a refreshing drink out of it, i know a few people who did it backyard style and it works fine from all reports :(

Just put the stock BOV back on there afterwards, bobs your uncle, looks stock too that way

I disagree with R31nismoid..

Coke has too much sugar.

as the fattest nation on earth, even ahead of the sepo's, we need to look at alternative refreshing drinks.

I would suggest coke ZERO is you must have the full taste of coke or diet coke which I prefer.

EDIT - also, why would someone trying to block off a functioning mechanical device be calling the use of a coke can to block it dodgey?

i like quality. not coke can doggy mechanics.

im actually making a plate to weld an elbow on it to fit after market BOV.

thats dodgy as hell man. but would work. lol. but i might use like 2mm plate steel.

cheers

Well how about i get a plain piece of aluminium then, with no printing on it

And charge you $10 for it?

Its the same thing, does the same job as a piece of steel, hell you could probably even use wood

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
