Hey all,

need help. Tried installing a HKS SSQV to the rb20 in an AUTO where the mount for the stock BOV is located. Blocked off the return hose and connected all lthe necessary hoses. But when it came to driving (read:crusing) it jsut stalled when ever the revs were changed below 3,000rpm. You could jsut hear the BOV releasing then the engine jsut shuts off.

The seller off SAU tried resetting the ECU via Disconneting the battery and all but the stalling continued. ALl means were considered but need more info and help.

Any tips be great cheers all!!

Err I'm not sure how a BOV is suppose to work on an auto but with a manaul it lets off when you let off the gas, i.e when throttle body is closing.

So hows it suppose to let off if you just keep your foot on the accelerator? Maybe that has something to do with it.

You might want to try and adjust the spring tension on the valve so it opens easier under low rpm, BOV's on autos can regularly cause stalling if not adjusted properly

Just keep adjusting it and rev it to 3000rpm and if it goes back to idle without stalling or struggling it should be fine

What boost you running?

Sorry to hijack thread but.. when you switch from a plumb back to atmo blow off valve, does it not play havoc with the air flow meter taking into account having the plumb back, with the a/f mixtures? Like mine, when i disconnect the plumb back hose the idle is really rough... stalling occasionally..

Makes sense..

What I meant was the afm has inbuilt compensations for the air coming back through the plumback, when you take the plumback away the mixtures aren't right because of those compensations..

So yeh - the electronic means to fix that would probably have something to do with that... right?

Tnanks for the helpful advice, reckon gettin the HKS EIDS is teh way. But my mate is running an atmo BOV on his auto, retaining the stock BOV, and using the cooling pipe near the Air Box. Is this a simple soluyion or will it have a future effect?!?!

cheers all

    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
