Hey guys, well, I pick her up tomorrow night :blink:

Just a few things I'd like to know:

I've driven a few R33 GTST's before, and love the suction sound of the turbo, on the GTR, I can't hear this, is this because it has a stock CAI or the fact it doesn't have external BoV's?

In regards to BoV's, what should I look for? BoV's are sex.

Exhaust-wise, what size should I aim for? And I do have a thing for the Dual Exhaust look.

Many thanks

Karl

Get apexi twin pods and a full stainless exhaust. The spool on my old car was quite noticible like that.

Don't get bovs... Leave the stock ones.

HKS Hi Power Silent exhaust = teh sex.

Quick clip of my old car:

Take out your stock airbox and replace the intake with pod filters. That will give you the induction noise your after. As far as BOV's go, it's all about personal preference. Wouldnt bother getting one until you boost your car though otherwise you'll be dumping too much air and your car will run rich.

/facepalm

BOV's are gayer than Freddie Mercury gargling cum.

Stock BOV's work perfectly at 600+hp at the treads.

Looks like what you want is something that says 'look at me' or 'pull my car over officer'.

Dog sneezing and squeaker toy noises that aftermarket BOV's make are some of the most obnoxious noises made by anything man made. There are no aftermarket BOV's that are upgrades of the factory GTR ones.

Be thankful that a factory jap performance car can be ultra fast without them.

Factory GTR bov's are the coolest sounding ones anyway! :rofl:

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
