Sounds good? Anything aftermarket sounds like a wet fart (but that just a matter of opinion).

I spose you could put VTO valves on and potentially have issues like alot of other people do when wanting to 'sound cool'.

Put the OEM ones back on. They work perfectly fine and won't sound like 'one of those guys'.

do you know where the stock ones are supposed to be ? and are you sure they have been removed ?

It is located behind the front bumper on the drivers side.

OP, have you really checked? or did you look in the engine bay and think, oh no bov then?

Here's a quick google search picture of what to look for.

On the driver side at the front of the car, these should be between the front bar and the front wheel in that gap/area. Much easier to see if you have the front bar off the car of course.

If you bought the car stock it doesn't make sense for them to not be there unless the seller decided to keep them (strange thing to do) or unless the seller had aftermarket ones on there and decided to keep them.

yeah sorry that came out wrong, I am well aware where they are and thats pretty much what I was getting at :cheers:

OEM is the way to go mate, you may be unaware of this fact but testicles will hang instantly from your forehead as soon as any type of after market BOV is fitted, so yeah just get the standard plumb backs or get a beanie, hat or something.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
