so i did the coke can mod tonight and seemed to get rid of the farting issue... How bad is it not having the blowoff functioning? Should i look into the grub screw mod?

There is mechanism why it may not be good..

But its pseudoscience at best no one really knows and there are many people on either side of the fence... Personally i have never run them in any of my drift cars. 20+ psi. Had no dramas.

Did the coke can mod. Very straight forward. Great results; eliminated the farting, seems to be slightly more responsive, got the fully sick VL flutter sound which is manageable. Certainly turns head

Installed the Turbosmart Kompact plumb back BOV.....you can still make some funny flutters with it but no farting and under load releases pressure the way a BOV should.....

yeah well we purposely never ran one on the CTS Drift Car as we found it held the boost better that and the fact it was one less part we had to worry about failing. But i was just worried on a stock car such as these it might have some issues. i guess ill wait n see...haha

Docile... that was not problem when I did that mod.

I found it good when on of off the throttle but when cruising on the Highway at 115kmh it tended to stutter and was very uncomfortable. Had to stop on the trip to remove the grub screw. Fortunatley it only takes 5 minutes to remove.

As Andy mentioned, wait till you take it on the highway. Drives like a dog.

I'm not exactly sure what the fix is... but once I changed the intake and tuned it with the E-Manage I no longer get the farting... Have been driving it around for about a year with no issues.

Thanks for the heads up. So far had it cruising at 90kmh at constant speed, seemed quite ok, will see how it goes over 100kmh.

Take it on a long hill and when you try and maintain a steady speed. When you ever so slightly back off the car will begin the shudder.

It drove me nuts. That and the stupid sound. Would be fine if it was a 1000kw beast... but its a wagon... with alot less power.

Took it for a drive today across Melbourne (Moorabbin to Geelong and back). Kept it steady at intervals of 90kmh, 100kmh, 115kmh and 120kmh. If you are steady on the throttle, not like a taxi drive on/off, I could not fault it.

Have to agree. I ran mine with the grub screw for many 10's or thousands of kms on highway, never an issue.

My car has the super hectik vl fluttaz, but I can't work out why. I just assumed it was an a/m bov, and never got round to looking at it.....until my turbo blew.

I've pulled the BOV off and checked all the lines to make sure someone hadn't blocked them for teh fluttaz. Do the BOV's fail very often?

My std BOV did similar, [fully hectic sound included] annoyed the crap out of me and made the car surge on light throttle transitions I took it off to check it out. Ended up having a ruptured diaphragm, I replaced it with std BOV off another VQ25det and the problem was solved, driving the car was so much better.

now just wondering whether to keep it or put on a new stock BOV as I do not want to kill the turbo.....

I replaced mine with a Turbosmart Dual Port. Theo has the same one, and Scotty has a Turbosmart Kompact. Little bit of flutter but if you're smooth it's hardly noticable.

I didn't like the idea of replacing one BOV having issues with a second hand one when they're all prone to doing this.

      Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA

      All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.
