good morning newb.

2 bolts where the bov attaches to the crossover pipe. remove large plumb back hose, remove boost signal hose. Block off plumb back hose. Signal hose can be used for A/M bov. get a metal plate, drill 2 holes to match those on the cross over pipe. and bolt it on with some sort of rubber seal to stop leaks.

Or you can leave it on and make you car a look a little more stock.

I am running 2x BOV's at the moment.. one stock and the aftermarket..because it came as part of my intercooler piping. The Blitz one doesn't open really at all (much stronger spring), so you do need to block the stocker.

Like chef said, some plate metal, some tin snips and a drill should do it. I actually built a blocking plate for the Blitz as blocking the stock one has been known to cause idle problems.

Might put the blitz back on when I am running higher boost and you can actually *hear* it :D

    • This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.
    • Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.
    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
