im having the same issue with my turbosmart type 3 plumb back ( dont have it on the car currently) ive cleaned it out so the piston slides nice but its only at higher revs when it will open at lower revs it simply doesnt open and i get flutters. have thought about buying a different rate spring to go into it to make it a bit easier for it to open. Im only running stock boost tho (9psi). interesting to see how this is fixed

yea it does flutter.....i rev it up to 4000rpm and it still flutters......not enuff boost on 12psi??? btw thanks for quick rep

sitting at idle isnt the best time to judge it. go for a drive rev it to about 4 or 5 and then see if it still flutters

real or fake hks one? have you loosened it to the lowest setting. make sure you dont over do it or you will screw up the bov. the screw should only come out about 1.5-2cms and then stop. if you keep going you will unwind it off from something on the inside then break it. was it working when you bought it or is this the first time you put it on? maybe you get ripped off and sold a broken/fake one.

the flutter is the sound of the turbo spinning backwards, sounds cool but its not awesome as it puts quite a bit of load on the compressor wheel and the shaft.

ROFL!!!!!!! :( Try blowing into a leaf blower, see what happens.

But i digress, lets not start that debate again.

Just loosen the screw on the BOV. If all else fails, put the stocker back on

Are you positive that you have loosened it and not tightened it mate....i ran a GFB Stealth FX for a while ages ago and on the hardest setting it would flutter but on the lowest setting it would just vent....so maybe try turning it the other way and see if that makes a difference....Flutter isnt all that bad

also i heard it was unhealthy for the car to flutter coz its going back to turbo or something....can someone confirm....

I have been running my stock turbo with the BOV blocked off....just for the flutter...car is running 12psi all day everyday for the last 2 years and making decent power 214.4rwkw on 12psi with the stock turbo and its a R33 S1 no issues whatsoever and it gets a thrashing as its a weekender

You'll need to pull the bov into bits and check.

Mine did the same thing, i got so pissed off that i pull the c*nt apart and found shitload of rust inside. I then soak it with Rust Off products, then lube it again properly and it works again.

is it true that if u don't recirculate the excess pressure from Ur bov back into the system it can cause issues? i had a hks ssqv fitted to mine for a short amount of time but did int have the hose blocked, i found my car stalling etc, and when i took it off and replaced it with the stock one i found my car running very rich and miss firing alot untill the ecu reset y was that

      Need help about headlight

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just checking; you are buying an aftermarket headlight for your V35, and the new headlight comes with a daylight running light that you want to wire in? You have the option of just not wiring the DRL in, and the new headlight will work like the old. If you want the DRL to work you will have to wire it in on the car as it wasn't delivered with one. Best way is to add a Normally Closed or Changeover relay in the car, and wire: 87a to both DRL power wires 30 to a fused ignition power source 86 to earth 85 tap into the power wire that goes to the low beam headlight Note, you cannot use the much more common Normally Open relay for this, you need the DRL to turn off when the headlight is on and vice versa.

      Hey Kaz, Unfortunately I am not at home currently and wont be for a few more months so I do not have access to my files or CAD. And at this point I prefer to keep the files to myself as I want to potentially make a few more pairs and see if they will sell within the EU before openly marketing them. But the way it's shaped and how small it is, I don't think you can fit both an indicator and a fog light onto the same surround, unless they were very small LED-type clusters.

      Replacement clutch recommendation for an R32 GTR

      By Ryno · Posted

      I’ve just installed a Uniclutch sport into my R32. I’ve been blown away by it… it drives like a stock Toyota Corolla. It doesn’t make sense to me that a performance clutch can drive this well. I was about to pull the trigger on a Nismo Coppermix twin plate when I discovered the Uniclutch and decided to give that a shot instead. They’ve changed the game and I couldn’t be happier.    I was previously using an Extreme cushioned button clutch with lightened flywheel. I’m still using the same lightened flywheel with the Uniclutch.
