Hi Ive recently upgraded my turbo and BOV the BOV was working find and releasing dump pressure fine until i took it to a mechanic for a service. once i got it back ive notices that instead off the dump pressure going out the BOV it is coming through the air vents inside the car ?? dose anyone know what would cause this ??

That's a special function only very few Skylines came out with. It's called Boosted Ultimate Lateral Latent Systematic Holisticly Individual Technology. Otherwise known as B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T!

Shoota_77 why you being a smart ass for dick head why would i be on here asking the question if it wasn't happenin freakin idiot. !!!!!

Gts30t nah its running the same boost as before i took it to the work shop. was wondering if maybe a vacuum line has been hooked up wrong

I'd say that because this sounds so ludicrous, there is a good chance you are a troll... <<---- This happens alot. :/

However, if you are 100% serious, then perhaps some engine bay pics would Help for diagnostic purposes.

Does your heater etc still work?

LOLLL

Pretty sure this can't happen, there's no way to 'tap' an intake or vacuum line into the cabin by accident as far as I know, but it would be pretty entertaining getting a blast of hot air on gear change!

No I am not a troll. engine bay pick attached. and its not a blast off hot air that comes out of the vents its only a small amount off pressure that comes out ( but still noticeable ) i have worked on my own cars for over 10 years now and i have never came across this either hence the reason im on here trying to find out as to why and how. and yes the heater works fine although it is more noticeable when the heater is turned on

    • 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
