Hey guys,

i think it must have been a thread that got lost with the down time... but someone wanted me to let them know how it went when i got my BOV put on...

I response to that... SWEEET.... i have it tuned so it flutters down low and makes the big WAAAACHHHSHSHSHHHHH up high....

havn't had any problems with stalling or backfiring or anything so it's all good...

Also, how much would you usually pay to have a BOV like this installed on a R32 GTS-t? I reckon i could have done it myself but the ppl who i got the car off said i have to have it done there to keep warranty... damn b4st4rds charged me $200 for it too... bit pricy i reckon... what about you guys?....

Yeah, that's what i originally though, but because you cant face the trumpet up... they had to extend the plumback tubin (cutting the metal pipeline) so that the tubing could be bent the right way to go onto the bov...

About 1/2 an hours work i reckon... damn B4ST4RDS, they know i wanna keep my warranty... so they charged a stupid price...

Yep, mines blue too... :)

yeah, i got the adapter for $50 as well... got the BOV for $250.... all straight from GFB...

To mount it, youll have to point the adapter towards the drivers side and face the trumpet forward... that's the easiest way so that the hoses will bend efficiently....

I thought it'd be better to cut a circle in the bonnet and place fine mesh over it (on the underneath so it looks good from outside)... then face the trumpet up.... maybee that can be a future mod for me... :D

yeah they are a good thing to have, mine was stalling before i had the plumbback attached, only cost me $100 bucks but i think that was a bit dear when look at what was done!!

glad your happy with it though!

adapter... with the size of the BOV, won't you have truble fittin it under the bonnet with that adapetr?... Looks like it's designed so the BOV will stand up on it???

Do you hav a mount set up for it or something?....

To tune it, the guy at GFB told me to adjust the nut lookie thing on the top (i think he called it the actuanator or sumfin...) about 1/2 a turn at a time and see how it goes... he said it's ok to flutter under about 3500RPM and about 3-4PSI...

instantly went into "R32 mode" in my head... lol

Yeah, wouldn't have a clue about any others so the mechanic would be right....

If ya have any troubles with adjustment, just ring the guys at GFB... they're really good... they'll tell ya exactly what to do... I wrote down what the guy told me but can't find the bit of paper... lol...

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
