does anyone know of a site that has the different types of BOVs and the noises they make?

I'm after a specific noise but i have no idea where to look - everyone thinks i'm nuts when i try to make the same sound....

it sounds like plumbak on an s15 - but i seen it on a 32 and its not plumbak.

any help appreciated.....

Just cup your hands over your mouth and make a 'pssshhht' noise - or a 3-Stooges 'woo-woo-woo' when asking for it at Autobarn. Makes life more fun for others :D

While you're at it... repeat after me: "Luke, I am your father"

thanks SRG33 :( - too bad the site doesn't have what i'm after...

jamezilla - lol, i already tried that, they all think i've lost the plot!

The BOV i'm after sounds like an angry pigeon on speed.......if that makes sense to anyone..... :(

What type of brand BOV is it???

i've got the SSQV on my car, which is ok, but the whistling starts to get to ya after awhile....

grandmaster - sorry mate, i dunno what brand it is, if i did it'd make things a whole lot easier......my mate reckons it could be the SARD R2D2 - can anyone try and describe what sort of noise that makes?

Angry pidgeon on drugs?

I think it is a "type S" (Greddy i think).

A type S makes a high-pitch whistle noise at the beginning, 1/2 sec later the frequency comes down and fades out. Lasts about 2.25 secs depending on settings. could b an angry pidgeon??? hahahaha

    • 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.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
