Hey guys, i been doing some search and many people say different things about BOV for GTR R32, like the fittings or setting of the vehicle. I'm wondering so what do i get a Twin HKS SSQV or just the single. I'm getting confused! Well thank you anyone can help! :D:ermm:

LOL!

I should have said, DO NOT install the HKS SSQ BOV at all.

KEEP the stock one and do not change anything.

Only reason you upgrade your BOV is if you are running Very High boost and the standard BOV cannot handle it anymore.

When a stock BOV cannot handle anymore boost, it will start to leak but if you are running stock boost or have a slight increase you will be fine.

From memory, a standard R32 GTR BOV is good for over 300kW's same with the stock front mount intercooler.

If you want the "Choo" noise, just install twin HKS air pods for your intakes.

Cool!

I dont know yet, but i'm looking for builds that are big power but streetcars. Still looking and reading around but modding cars are confusing if i read the wrong shit. I'm still a beginner at this so i wanna research before i do anything stupid or reckless. better safe than sorry i guess! :ermm:

Basics would be a full (turbo back) 3" exhaust system.

If you got your stock air box / intake, keep it or upgrade the panel filter to a high flow one, you can upgrade to pods but you might be sucking in a bit of hot air thats all.

atleast upgrade your springs / coilovers to improve your handling or upgrade to full adjustable suspension setup, but you will sacrifice a nice smooth ride for a bumpy one.

Larger wheels / wider tyres, top quality brake pads...

I would say 250kW - 300kW+ is decent for a street R32 GTR.

Depending on how many kW's you want will determain what mods you will need.

the standard GTR set-up has 2 blow off valves. so having 2 isn't really want. that's how the factory system does it. but yes they are not a problem for decent power. there are plenty of other things to change first. if you want more bov sound out of them look at getting some pod filters and/or metal hard pipe kit. that will get you more noise out of the stock BOVs.

the HKS SSQV kit for GTR will come with 2 BOVs. as does the blitz kit. the trust kit just has one but it's the massive type R BOV.

Ah! Yes... You are correct about the 2 standard BOV's.

Thanks for that!

But my point was to keep his stock BOV's :ermm:

there is a recent issue of High Performance Iports that has the best guide to tuning GTRs. basically replace the turbos, decent exhaust, bosch 044 pump, 600cc injectors, power fc and a tune will see 300awkw easily. one of the best drop in replacement turbos i've found are gt2860s

hope this will help you out

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
