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.

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 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.

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

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      By Duncan · Posted

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
