I thought a stealth bov was black and inconspicuous looking rather than quiet so that during inspections by cops they can't see that it's different.  I may be wrong though.

As advised, they come in silver and other colours. The "stealth" part is the ability to basically turn them off.

You can adjust how much plumb back and the pressure this occurs from memory.

Now, if only I could be bothered to open the bonnet and turn it down every time I drive it (My Wife likes to make a little noise).

Enjoy!

I have the stealth bov on my r33. Its really good because you can control how loud you want the bov to be. You can also take the trumpet off it looks less suspicious if you do have it vented to atmosphere. But if you have the trumpet on and you have the bov on plumb back, the cops still pick at it as they think it on vent to atmosphere.

So the sound travels through the pod.Im guessing it is very faint compared to my blitz supersound bov.

I really feel like driving a car that doesnt draw the crowds attenion when going for a easy drive.

But back to the subject.Either of them are pretty quiet.Yeah R31 nismoid id like it to be able to handle track days,which i am sure it will,thats all.

i have a hks pod on my 33 and the standard plumbback valve going off sounds just as loud as my mates blitz atmospheric venting bov, i also get this cool sucking whistle when i floor it

i would recommend the stealth fx

but they dont come in black for the r33 at least they didnt when i bought one ... mines brushed silver looks nice too ... you can take the trumpet off and turn it to plumb back cops wouldnt say a thing about it ...

as for the pod i've got one of those too (they sound tough) in a box from linton of garage debris ... if i turn the stealth fx to full plumb back i still get a chopping noise on light throttle

the stealth fx can also be heard operating at full plumb back ...

if you dont want the psssshhhh sound and your not running 30 psi why bother changing it from standard ...

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
