Always amusing when a grown man gets angry over a simple question :P

im not angry bout it at all, ive read heaps of other bov posts and knew that u would come n write the same thing u do in every other persons thread. instead of doin that, stick to the question asked and we can avoid all these uneeded posts. Just coz u have 28000 posts dosnt mean your the ducks nuts of skylines just means you have to much spare time to come and post useless posts

so if we can now please get back to what i originally posted on just confirming whether or not i need to do anything with the spare threaded hole

I asked nothing more than a simple question... to which the response was nothing short of rude and abrupt.

Probably still a bit jaded "coz sumone" has had their threads locked constantly and is a bit angry with responses over the years...

I guess it happens though, some people just cant accept things as well as others! Never to worry.

Lol so true he did the same thing on my thread asking about a Tial Q bov of which i never got as i bought a turboback exhaust instead. of which im not complaining.

However this leaves me with still wanting a decent bov.

Do you thing this would be ok to use on my 33 gtst? running HKS pod, 3" turboback exhaust, r32 actuator running 12pound?

getting front mount with new front facing plenum too so want a new bov for new piping anyway. ( after i fix my car that is )

srry to ask it in ur thread lol, keen on vids when you can mate an yeh hope you get that 600hp!! thats farkn awsome even if your close to it :ninja:

You have too much time on your hands mate, seems like you need a lay.

oh and i took your 'advice' and dodsons told me a good greddy or similar would be the way to go an thers no point in going back to and modifying a factory valve.

but besides that i ddnt want to be rude as i dnt have talot of experience and it really seemd like you knew what you were talking about.

But your rubbing off as a bit of a dick tbh, nobody wants to hear your anti bov shit

if you dnt like it thats your choice keep it to yourself.

can you define "OK" please ? ok in what way . loud? work fine ? protect your turbo? pull bitches ?

it will be louder and have more surge nioses with out it but will flow more with it connected to pressure only

i just mean work in general as the greddy website says its for applications over 450hp an im def not pushing that.

ok i installed it this afternoon n evrything works fine wif it not connected 2 anything. As 4 surge, not realy a problem wif a t88, so yeh evrything is good. It dosnt go off evry time u get off the throttle either, only wen u give it sum

As 4 nismoid, the question u askd had nuffin 2 do wif my original post wot so ever

there are two type R's std and hard, just make sure you dont buy the hard if your running a small setup.

Did you fail badly in spelling or you're just lazy?

You type the same way a 14 year old sends her best friend sms messages.

    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
    • Oh and some up-and-comings; New rear drivers wheel bearing. I'll do that this weekend while the diff is out. The car is already up and the d/c axles and missing exhaust will help with space. This is the last bearing for me to do and I've been dragging my feet on it. I also have some new EBC blue stuff pads for the car and some new brake fluid. I haven't ever flushed the fluid in this car and looking forward to it. I have 600 degree fluid to put in. Not exactly "race fluid" but better than the typical stuff I have been using.
    • A proper clutch/plate type mechanical diff with quite a lot of pre-load and high locking % is better for drifting. Much more consistent in its behaviour. A helical can be annoyingly vague and inconsistent in how it responds under the sorts of abuse found in drifting.
    • Some updates here. I pulled the entire interior out, minus some trim to respray the seats with Colourlock dye. It turned out really nice though I accidentally let the dog in the car after and she scratched up the front seat.  This is what it looked like before, the colour was just washing out everywhere but thankfully the leather was in good nic. Then after the respray   And after the bloody dog jumped in The headliner is out waiting to be retrimmed, but it will stay out now until Nov - see why below. I replaced the stereo/headunit with a period-styled Android headunit. I have no after pics, but I'll get some. This is because of the missing pixels. I tried to fix this twice with replacement ribbon cables but couldn't. Also the bluetooth interface I'd bought for this was crap. Then there's the rusty roof. Pics and info in this other thread. I have decided to get this repaired professionally, but I'll update that thread. This is why the headliner will stay out for now. I'll be getting the roof and bonnet resprayed at the same time the rust is fixed. I also had an interesting issue with my drivers door lock.  For a small period I was having issues getting any 12v power to the car - I mean *any*. It would have no dash lights, nothing. It happened while I was at the shops and I couldn't get in the car. So, we had 2 problems. The most pressing here is that I was locked out. I have only a single physical key hole on the car, the drivers door and no amount of turning would unlock the car. Surely it doesn't need power for this? The second issue is why am I losing all power periodically, The battery isn't dead, its almost like the battery isn't even there. Two issues that were surprisingly easy to fix. You fellow BMW over-engineering lovers will appreciate this. The lock in the door has 5 states; mechanical lock, electric lock, neutral, electric unlock, mechanical unlock achieved at -90 degrees, -45 degrees, 0 degrees, 45 degrees and 90 degrees. Although, the unlock is towards the front of the car, so opposite for LHD countries. Sticking the key in and turning 45 left or right is what is used 99% of the time. It activates the central locking etc. 90 degrees is for dead battery access and, obvs, only un/locks the one door. But because the mechanical lock is never used and is 27 years old, it seizes up. I was totally unable to turn the key far enough to get to the mechanical unlock (At the time of locking myself out, I didn't even know this was a thing). I eventually did it with some vicegrips and teflon spray.  I made a quick vid for other E39 peeps.   The battery issue is totally new to me also - It wasn't making sufficient contact between the post and the terminal. The terminal was bolted on tight, but the car wouldn't have power. After checking the battery with my multimeter I accidentally contacted the terminal and the battery post and the car got power. The battery was only a few years old and in good condition. I cleaned the post and the terminal with a wire brush, bolted it back on tight and never had the issue again. I'm still surprised that despite having solid contact it didn't work. Also, the car was getting Warragamba sized pools of water in the back when it rained. My initial concern was another rust problem. But when I went out on Weds while it was raining and while I had no headliner in I could see a steady stream of water coming through the roof mounted aerial. As this aerial is for the (now removed) car phone I pulled it out and whacked a blanking grommet in the hole. It seems fine now. I'm thinking I might get the hole permanently filled when the rust is fixed. Moving forward and things in progress; The tailgate needs some attention. I have taken all the trim off to clean it all and address some small rust spots. I have partially done all of this but I'll finish it up hopefully this weekend. As all the trim are now entirely devoid of trim clips I have bought a heap of strong velcro and I'm hoping it does a good enough job as any of this trim in good condition is super expensive and usually in Europe as we dont have many of the wagons here. Suspension and brakes!!! This is exciting. In the front; New control arms New sway bar links New lower Eibach springs (the only modification I'm planning on this car) M Sport shocks (these came with the car and will replace the longer shocks in the car) New top mounts Used 540i calipers (stock brakes suck!) New 540i disks and pads (22x296 mm for 528 and 30x334 mm for 540i) New front wheel bearings (thank all that is holy for bolt on bearings!) Annnnd in the back; New control arms New sway bar links Adjustable air suspension arms (fool the car into what the current height is so the self levelling suspension can match the new front ride height) New ball joints I'll also be doing a brake fluid flush while I'm in there. I'm planning on switching the car over to the 16's that came with it so I can clean up and respray the M Sport 17's. They've lost a lot of colour over the years and have some gutter rash. None of this will start until the E90 is back.
