So thats the relief valve on the intake manifold.  Ok, but if I take it out and bung it up with large metal plug of some sort, will this cause any damage to my engine????

Just watch out if u have the standard T3 in place, for i've heard stories (had it happen to amate) of the wastegate sticking open on the standard T3's and overboosting big time!

Last time i check Boof, if you wastegate sticks open, you dont get boost :)

hahahaha pole smoker! :(

hey ant got the intercooler and etc done today. The guy that told me all the stuff recognized it as your old one straight away. He complained about how i have to do my exhaust first blah blah but i went ahead with it anyway, he quoted the exhaust to be like $1500+ or something *jawdrop*... couldnt just leave the stuff lying there *shrug*.

Got 2 comments on the car, 1) I cant hear the bov, is it cos its a small stock turbo? or did they do it the-doesnt-make-the-sound way?

2) The black plastic pipe for my air filter going from my bottom right to bottom left is still there, even though the original filter has been replaced. How come? I wouldve thought they'd get rid of that altogether.

I'll ask them those questions of course, unless u (or the rest of u) know the answer. Didnt hang around and pop the bonnet cos i had a basketball game and was in a rush... bad mistake...

Thanks Anthony. Will just have to take mine out, measure it up and find one around the shed down here! Coz mine's the '82 model it doesn't have the factory greddy relief valve, only the standard Nissan type.

On a good note, my interior is getting a retrim on Friday in Black microfibre/cotton material like in the R34, with blue suede inserts in the door trims and centre of seats. The trimmer is also remoulding the rear seat into 2 bucket style seats which should be heaps more comfortable!

guys i have some news, i've been talking to a bloke on here from www.slidewizeimports.com about getting stuff from jenesis, they can and said if i know of anyone else who wants things put an order together and they'll ship it all together at better rates. if you want have a look at www.r30.co.jp see what they have and PM me if you interested in getting an order :)

Oh another comedian!! Go play with ur RB my friend and leave the FJ's to us :) Pffft wastegate sticking open, wastegate sticking shut same difference :Bang:

come on guys, keep it relevent.. want to chat, goto the wasteland..

Sorry about that, Does anyone want anything from Jenesis as i'm placing an order in the next week or so for a new front lip and the shipping is going to be way cheaper for eveyone if theres more items comming over at once! :cool:

yas - not sure with the bov you should be able to hear it abit? maybe try adjusting the tension on the screw at the top? actualy, id say its not coz u have stock turbo, but because u have stock boost and stock exhaust. if u do your exhaust and increase the boost itll be good but otherwise it wont really open. my Sard R2D2 BOV i have on my car now wont open at all really now i have my boost controller off and am running stock boost. which is what yours is doing !

the black intake pipe they probably left there as it does actually help by getting cold air into the air filter. so if they have fit stuff in with the pipe there id say leave it as its only doing good by getting cold air from the front of the car!

rsx - cheers for the headsup that slidewayz can get Jenesis stuff, but ive got no money for anything atm! but i want some coilovers and shit from there eventualy so cheers for info anyway! ;D

*drools :wassup: Sounds like the DR's going to look A1 mate!! Now all you need is a big arse ball bearing turbo hanging off the FJ! :(:):rofl:

Are you going to the Newie cruise on the 8th?

thanks for that ant, my friend also told me that its either of the two u mentioned, he rekkons more towards the stock boost though.

I find it annoying that the length that the air has to travel is so long... i wonder if any places can modify the pipe? picky picky :)

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
