Hi

I'm so going to get killed for this, but I have searched for the last 2 hours and can't find anything definitive.

With an aftermarket map ecu, so not using maf.

Can I run a stock gtr bov on a gtst (as it appears to be a good upgrade) and vent it to atmo?

This will save me having to have my new 3" alloy intake pipe modded to have a return to recirc it.

what makes you think its a good upgrade?

Note, GTR BOV's are entirely different in setup. Note i sad BOVs. Not 100% sure but they might be a smaller size than a the single item from a gts-t.
Secondly, its something that opens up to let air out. Why do you need to upgrade your existing one?

Thirdly, yes you can run to atmo and with map should be minimal issues. Except legal ones.

You should probably do some research on how bypass/recirc/blow off valves work.

OP

Tep good upgrade. Just don't run it atmo because they are open under vacuum.

Never gave the operation of a stock item much thought, just blocked it off on my old gts-t as i had a suspicion they were leaking. Probably unfounded.

Are you saying that they perform differently from the general setup of an aftermarket item?

A quick search on sau will tell you the diff between a gtr and gts bov. I just couldn't find the answer to my particular Q about running one atmo with a map sensored ecu.

So what I can gather is that it is only good if run recirc and I should look aftermarket if I want an atmo one

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.

      I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs.
