well you take off the standard bov, get a flat peice of alloy or type of metal of your choosing cut to the same shape with the holes for the bolts drilled through it, cut some gasket paper and bolt it down in place of the standard bov, then block of the vac line and plumb back line

it will affect your turbo when changing gears, the air will hit the throttle body come back through the compressor blades and slow it down or stall it so you will get more lag when changing gears but you will have a fully sick sounding car......

i have a blocking plate if you want it... i can post it to you for $15.00.

to get the sound your after, you really need a bigger turbo, and a metal intake pipe to the turbo. the air reversion is what makes the noise, which you get with a bigger turbo, the stock rubber pipe cushions it and you can hardly hear it.. which is what its meant to do.

it also makes releasing the throttle, aka on gear changes or after hard accelerating, very very harsh.. especially compared to the standard bov which feels like theres nothing there.

its not worth it in my opinion.. i have only blocked off the bov to run an aftermarket one in a different spot... i kept the original one on for police issues but blocked it.

No you don't, works fine with the standard turbo and a pod filter. he

The main factor I believe to become louder is the amount of boost you run.

I have a GT35R with a metal pipe. On 10PSI (running of the wastegate spring) it wasn't loud at all, at 23 PSI, it's a different story! :laugh:

lol bugger me, everyone I know including myself has just cut out a piece of a beer can and used that to block off the stock BOV! works fine 6 months down the track. Also used a bit of liquid gasket to seal it down nicely.

find someone on crutches and steal the little rubber bit from the bottom or go bunnings :laugh:

NA is better :laugh:

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov

      yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?

      That's some really horrible design with the way it's cut/shaped! Is there much damage to the box that failed in? IE, new fork and you can go again, or is it a total rebuild again? Id be trying to build that piece from scratch, and getting some reliefs added in the corner to hopefully stop breakage, and then swapping boxes ASAP, and then doing the same to the currently good working box. I'm assuming hard shifts have not been friendly to it!
