If anyone can help,

I've looked at Youtube, the internet and SAU on how to install this type of BOV and i'm not having much luck. I'm confused as to what connects to what. I have 3 outlet, one is at the base of the BOV where you connect straight onto the standard BOV. The 2nd connection is located on the body of the BOV which is near small holes for the exiting air and last connection (3rd) is at the top of the BOV were the nut is located for tightening.

I would really appreciate some help in this area.

Might be helpful if you can say what brand the blowoff valve is, and a picture would help... :P

looks like an Apexi Twin Chamber BOV, or atleast a cheap knock off. try searching "apexi twin chamber bov", should be able to find some instructions.

it just looks like all three are vacume pipes, but i wouldnt be 100% sure about it. bit of a head scratcher :)

Thanks guys, I finally got the thing installed after a bit of swearing and staying up 2 nights after work. The fitting is exactly for a R33 but i had to adjust the rubber tubing for it to go on an angle downwards near the turbo instead of upwards as the bloody vacuum pipe stopped the bonnet from shutting. Me being me, closed the bonnet and made a upwards dent in the bonnet. How do I know this was going to happen, I'm not happy as to what i did to the bonnet.

However, it has a nice whoosh sound when revving the motor as it sounds great. Vacuums No.1 and 2, I tried with no sound, it just didn't give that WHOOSH sound. It sound like a monster waking up, I love it.

For those fitting these BOV's downwards guys and vacuum inlet no.3.

Next thing I have to fix the dent, Cars !!!!!.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
