BOV's are not as bad as cops make out, yes they vent but its only air not exhaust gas, if I get pulled up I can see I'm going to be arrested for telling a cop he's a dumb shit (being a mechanic)

I hate that they can hand out defects for things they don't even know the name of.

wut?

you are correct that they only vent air

but they affect the afrs (ecu adds fuel for the air that it thinks went in)

therefore resulting in too many bad gasses which kill baby seals and rape pandas

We can't have our cars raping pandas now can we?

My car got defected for one dead numberplate light... Cops will pin you if they want to, unfortunately you can't stop them.

My new build im using a bov that vents to atmo cos I don't want any pipes into my intake lol, same as my catch can won't plumb into intake.

If I ever get a yellow for the bov I'll just blank it for the inspection ;p

Run the catch can pipe into the airbox? Doesnt need to feed into the intake pipe then!

Atmo BOV is just asking to be hassled though!

gate impresses slarts not bov!

neither you would understand hence why ur gay!

All I have to do is start my car to impress, I don't have to hoon or hit boost or anything. Simply changing gear at 50ks at half throttle will literally knock the sunglasses off the top of your head ;)

.... Anyway woooosh noises are cool, I'd have a woosh noise if I had a turbo

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
