ok so i got my hands on a GTR BOV and a bigger hose for the plumb back and connected it all back up just like the stock GTT one was.

all is well but when i come on boost say around 0.5bar maybe more (highflow turbo set to 1 bar) while still in gear and and let of the accelerator the car makes the normal psssh sound but it also makes a (very hard to describe) different noise also. kinda like a viberation noise but not quite.

ill see if i can get a recording of it.

but has anyone else experienced anything different with a GTR BOV?

im not having any other problem. car is holding boost fine. idleing fine. just the noise. and the strange noise is pretty loud too if your outside or have the window down.

help.

i get the same bloody noise. if i boot it, no noise. if im barely making boost no noise. its during normal accelleration that it makes it. a kinda honking vibration

when's the next meet? i'll show you if you rock up. remind me or some shiz

around 6seconds into the vid, does it sound like that? If i get it onto boost abit and then half throttle, it will do that sound. A mate thinks it sounds like a poo going down the pipes LOL

thats the sound hahahaha

thats it. like taking a bog with your ass sealed and you get that deap noise lol

any idea what it is??? if its anything bad? at first i though it was just the stiffer springs not opening enough. if i accelerate hard, change gears and accelerate again its fine. only whne slowly getting of boost it makes the noise.

hey not exactly on topic here but...along the lines i guess.

ive got a gtr blow off valve and i removed my standard r34 gtt one to replace with gtr, now when i pushed the valve up into the gtt one it is very stiff and hard but when i push the gtr one (with my fingers fron the sealed side) it feels softer...has anyone experienced this with there blow fof valve as i dont want to put the gtr one on and go for a tune with it if its stuffed ya know!

any help would be much appreciated.

hey ash,

long time no speak... i changed my gtst bov to a gtr one and also got that exact same issue! but i got rid of it..

i dont know if its the same for u, but the pipe i got to suit wasn't exactly perfect and I had a guess that the sound was of some air in the pipe as it was expanding or contracting... anyway, got a hose joiner to try to keep it more solid, and worked fine, not an issue any more!

can send u some pics if u want :ermm:

i thought that was normal? i swear there are some threads around about that and it turned out fine... my gtr bov is alot softer then my gtst one, but it does the job better so I assume its fine...

O great, another thread with somebody being worried about how their blow off valve sounds :(

oh wow thanks for your input...

vidospace the advantage with a GTR BOV is it holds more boost. only worth it if your running more boost then stock really as its a plumb back so its nice and legal.

alright, took some shots.

not the prettiest thing in the world, but she works well. definitely alleviated a lot of tension across the pipe.

im pretty sure it was a radiator hose bleeder or something, because I had to buy that gold blocking screw. was like 30 bucks all up and works fine.

P.S u can leave the screw out and it gives it a lil bit more of a whistle, but im not into that sorta thing :banana:

I slapped a GTR bov on my car after I got rid of the megasonic ears bleed loud wank bov. I then got stickered to made it plumb back. It made that fats noise. Like air was blowing past the rubber pipe making in vibrate sounding like a fart. Another of my friends gets that too. Wonder why that happens. It atmo again as I got the sticker off. so meh

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
