Have a Pair of type 2 V port blow off valves for sale. They are brand new polished Turbosmart copies with the only differance being the shape of the screw on cap.

Genuine sell for $300 each. Note they are NOT plumback. Internally they are an exact copy and work exactly the same.

Asking $175 each

May trade with a pair of genuine GTR bov's

Bump

Don't mean to be ass but need to put in a breif blurb. The parts on these BOVs are not anodised so the valve (piston that looks very ordinary) will wear very quickly and eventually jam plus the spring has eight active coils whereas ours have 16, for a very good reason.

Yes these are priced nice and cheap (love to know where the hell they come from) but just wanted set the record strait - will not work exactly the same as a Turbosmart product.. Sorry...

A mate made them on a CNC lathe and mill. They are the last two left out of 16 and they all work perfectly. They are made from 6061 T6 high tensile aluminium and yes anodised ones will last longer but these will certainly outlast the engine.

The pistons are made from Brass and will not jam. The springs have less coils but have a heavier gauge wire so they do the same job.

All the ones in use at the moment work fine and have done for the last 8 months

The only reason I am selling is I want a pair that I can plumb back. And for the price they will not dissapoint.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • 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
