Technically, if its plumbed back yes, its legal.

But its still loud, i wouldn't open it up past a cop, im sure they will have a say in it.

BTW, take out the fins in the end of your ssq bov. This will get rid of that homosexual squeek sound.

dude there messing with you

the flutter although it sounds great it actualy doing damage to you turbo!!!.

if you have your bov spring too loose it doeasnt vent properly so the air is forced back through your turbo (the wrong way ) to the

doooo dooo do do dod do do noise you hear is the blades of your turbo cutting through the air .

as for bov increasing power im no expert but if that were true it would be stated in the sticky about skyline power mods .

baaaaaaaaaaahahahaha, in think someone needs to learn about sarcasm.

also needs to learn about how a bov works. if the spring is too loose on a bov then it will vent properly. it just might leak a bit under acceleration. if a spring is too tight then it won't vent properly and you will get compressor surge.

there are too many posts in this thread and not enough time to facepalm them all. threads like this are why i spend most of my time in wasteland. at least discussions there are intelligent.... or contain pics of hot bishes

ok so i am just about to convert my stock plenum to a forward facing plazmaman...

now i guess i have to remove the stock rb25 bov as there is no place to put it now..

how would i set up a bov on a forward facing setup?

i have a turbosmart vport bov laying around i could use but i would rather use stock and it doesnt have the ghey sound...

any ideas?

not for a street car..

Sorry its not a great photo but this is how mines setup. Lots of people say it needs to be as close to your throttle body as possible but mine works fine as it is, Little tight but still vents etc.

A friend has his on the pipe off the front of his TB with a stainless pipe across the front of the car (just behind the radiator into his intake pipe) but its a bit cheaper to do it the way mine is done

personally the stock BOV and a good pod sounds great. take the heat shield off the bonnet or get a frp bonnet, for more noise.

not a fan of flutter (wen i hear it i look around for the nearest VL with chrome on it).

ssv, greddy type-r/s etc meh.

but each to their own.

Weld it on in the driver side gaurd, before the t/b. VTA it. 300kw, im guessing tuned? Any decent tuner can tune in a vta bov.

Easiest option, i did it...but of course there is always the risk of being pulled up for it.

I cbf making up a return pipe, they look like ass, chrome or no chrome.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.

      By Chupapy · Posted

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
