did you increase boost when you did the tune?? the boost could push the BOV open and assist with venting the air through the valve

could be right. mine was at 17psi tuned i think previous to my boost issue. and wasnt doing it..

gave it a spray with WD40 and this improved the opening of the BOV and reduced the noise.. :)

well i know what im doing tonight :)

as iaiana said, by how much.. perhaps another sound clip?

going over the stagea getting it in "ok" condition for mondays track day. my track car wont be back from the tuner in time so have to track the stag for the final time.

found my front rhs driveshaft is leaking a right royal mess. changed out the filters, re-bleeding brakes atm with some quality brake fluid.

i now have a working horn!

and i changed my parkers and rear numberplate lights and interior lights to LED. interior ones arent as bright as id like. i might get some ebay ones as jaycar didnt have the best range

I changed my exhaust today from the Raizer muffler that came on the car to a Fujitsubo Legalis Cat back system that I picked up on Ebay for $600.....

OMG!!! The performance difference is MASSIVE.

So.......I had a look inside the old muffler.........do you think this might have been restricting flow a little ?

Was driving down to Canberra on Friday with my trailer in tow and had to make a road side stop to remove the Grub screw from the BOV. It made the car damn near un-drivable with grub screw in. Car was staggering and shuddering every time I lifted the slightest bit off the throttle.

Will be doing some more work on Wednesday on the BOV with some silicon spray that I hope will improve the performance of the BOV.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
