i blocked off my bov ages ago

and of course it stalls after turbo spools

how to make it stop stalling??

unblock the bov maybe? the ecu is expecting on throttle shutting that the BOV will open and recirculate back into the system. its not (as its blocked off) so you get said situation

anyone know what the deal is with these trailers?

i have herd that the car being towed needs to have rego?

yes, and it has to be roadworthy. Theres probably a loophole somewhere (as a few of the towing companies tow cars like that) but on a "non business" towing level, i wouldnt want to test the rule

I have been running a blocked off BOV since I got my car, never every have I had this issue but in saying that there has been known issues about blocking of the stock BOV. Unfortunately you can't have flutter and stop it from stalling.

Unblock the BOV and then see how it reacts. If it is still stalling then there might be other issues too

hey matty do you know any place who makes these sort of trailers i can have a chat too about this?

i was thinking if the trailer rego plate was at the back it would be ok, but would really like to ask the trailer makers

i used to own a towing business and for you to put a car on that trailer the car has to be registered or in our case we used a trade plate you need a light board to hang over the back of the car and the trailer needs rego as well . tbh there a pig of a thing to use and tow with hence the reason im about to start building a couple of car trailers in a few weeks . i might even to a step by step guide with photo's as i go along if that would help anyone else thinking of building one .

cheers dean

      Belt flex under throttle

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hi all, I’ve just finished fitting the timing belt on my RB25, following the standard procedure: rotate the crank twice, release the tensioner, then tighten it down. The belt feels tight, and you can see that clearly in the picture below I’ve heard some people say it’s actually better for the belt to be slightly loose rather than too tight, as excessive tension can lead to snapping. So that’s in the back of my mind. What I’m seeing is this:  • At idle, the belt looks fine.  • But when cranking and especially when revving (around 3–4,000 RPM), there’s a momentary flap/flex or flicker in the belt, which I’ve tried to capture in the video. So my question is — based on what you see, is this slight belt movement something you’d consider normal, or am I just being OCD? Could this amount of movement cause sync issues? Or is it just a harmless bit of flex under load?   from what I know belt flap and flex is expected when crank spins up and pull cam with it Would appreciate any thoughts or similar experiences.     IMG_7656.mov IMG_7657.mov

      I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).

      Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.

      The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
