so do u just cut liek a square of a bit of can then do the bolts up and sandwich it in between?

good results?

its simple.

get any metal, cut it into the shape of the flange of the bov, drill 2 holes for the bolts. then put it between the bov and intake pipe.

All it does is stop the bov from venting the air back into the intake pipe, so yes you will get good results

i love sau, a question is ask then people feel the need to add their 2 cents about why they think its gay or similar.

it takes less effort to not post or read the topic

1 - It is gay.

2 - If it was meant to sound like that, they would.

3 - If anything, like I said it slows the turbo down unnecessarily & could cause damage to it, so why would you want to do that.

4 - It is gay.

For the record my car has wicked turbo flutter, but that's due to the size of the damn thing & possibly a crappy bov that will be getting replaced soon once I find a decent replacement. That sort of flutter sounds good, not stock turbo spec flutter that sounds like sin.

For f**ks sake man....

Yes you can put a piece of aluminium can in between the flange connection if you want, so that the air returns back through the turbo just to create a bit of noise.

I can also drive my car off a cliff if I wanted to, but it doesn't make it a good idea. That's my point, I don't give a f**k what you do to your car, but I'd like people to show just a bit of common sense if they are thinking about doing something with a negative impact.

there is no proof that blocking off a bov or running no bov causing damage to the turbo or engine

gazza750; i answer his question, not very hard

so flutter is gay... EXCEPT if its YOUR bigger turbo? :laugh:

and if its slowing the turbo down, and damaging it like you claim, why do you let yours do it? :closedeyes:

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
