hey there'

so my car is going to try getting rid of shuffle (RB26, garrett -5's) going back to standard BOV, dirtgarage said that the HKS balance pipe did a good job, but cant be bought anymore, and expensive around 1k?

my mechanic suggested making one up??????

any suggestions?

Stock GTR bov's leak?

Yes

@ Idle they open and this helps avoid the comp surge.

same as the stock rubber piping etc etc.

Nissan made the RB26 setup perfectly in that respect. You have issues only when you go hard pipe kits, take off the stock BOV setup etc etc.

I have -5s, HKS hard pipe kit + Drag Cooler, standard exhaust and inlet manifolds, 20psi, NO BOV, NO SHUFFLE.

Many people have recently had this problem, its related to the turbo intakes, BOVs, and a few other things I cant remember.

Id be looking at your inlet. Its the only thing different.

What R31 Nismoid and femno said :banana:

I have the same setup and no shuffle either.

As nice as it looks, I'd scrap it and go the standard bov's too.

dam i couldnt bring myself to scrap it, i didnt ask my mechanic to build it like that, but thats what he did, i dont want to through more money away too, might just get that BOV done, then live with the noise, just would like to here those ol' -5's spool up, rather then 'thomas the tank engine' on crack

cheers robbie

i get the same issues with my setup to the cchh chh chhh

i have std rebuilt turbos w steel wheel on ss manifolds, full hard pipe kit and no bov and pfc with afm just shy of 300kw but i recon its the manifolds not being tuned lengths or the hard piping not being the same length from turbos to intercooler. what i was going to do is run a 2 into 1 intercooler and make the pipe lengths the same from the turbos to the intercooler?

what do you guys recon? and im not giving up the the hard piping kit lol

    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
    • Plan B? Get someone to machine up a metal bush/collar/whatever it needs to be to replace the rubber? I haven't had a close look at that part recently to have a proper feel for whether that's possible. But it might be easy.
    • I do not want to install a short shifter and the only other stock throw shifter I have seen is the Nismo "Rigid shifter" for $290 So plan A is to fill it with sikaflex to stiffen it up and hope for the best
