If I am reading this right, you know its not to good for the turbo to block off the BOV??

You may already know this, but just thought I would check...

The amount of stress it actually puts on your turbo is well over rated.

Why do VL's run fine with out the bov? Answer me that

they would run well for a while, but that doesnt mean it there is no long term effect.

VL engines are old technology. if bovs werent needed then they wouldnt have put them on new cars.

Exatly what I was thinking...

You can't say that it is all fine because VL's don't have them, cause if it was all fine they wouldn't of introduced them to new cars...

It won't make your turbo shit itself overnight, but it does increase the shaft play of the turbo... Think about it, the turbo is spinning one way, you clutch, air has nowhere to go but back through the turbo the oppisite way to its spinning...... that can't be good.

Anyways not here to argue about it, I am sure everyone has their own opinion on it, and I am no expert. Just letting you know if you hadn't thought of it, which obviously you had.... so I withdraw my 2 cents worth :rofl:

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
