yeah niz im with cam! about the jash thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah and cam but if i get a dump pipe to suit right, don't ya think it would make another place for exhaust leakage? that why i was thinkin of sellingmy apexi front and just getting a new dump/front made up!

i agree coilovers are awesome! but i can't justify paying that much unless i was harcore track racer! so i think i just go for the aftermarket shocks and springs!

adrian:p

dont really have itme to chase thats why i now use who i do - seems to be very thorough and has the time on his hands to be that way.

I'll get it done just got to find time n money - but first the blow off valve problem - one step at a time - should see the shopping list i have for my car - i mean just even the essentials its huge - need my brake pads replaced soon too or i might end up under a truck!

[APA]

niz i have a blow off valve that i wanna sell! it's a ssr blow off valve styled like blitz! bit fatter though! apparently very loud (look at me loud) hehe although never put it on my car! if ya want you can take it off me to see if it will fix your problem, if it does you can buy it if ya want, if it doesn't then chuck it back at me in a big tantrum!

Adrian - ok, I get what ur on about now - and i agree.. u should be able to get rid of the Apexi pipe and use the proceeds to get the dump/front combo done?

Niz - understand completely.. thats one thing i hate, chasing people so they can take my $$... fair call..

[Nizmo]

re-circulative adrian? If so u got yaself a deal

[APA]

yeah cam! looks like i shall start advertising my apexi pipe!

adrian

[Nizmo]

my cars an auto so it probably wont be at its full loudness - but it'll keep dad outta my car at least (he hates them)

[APA]

sorry niz it ain't a re-circulative BOV, it's a atmo-venting BOV

but i'll have a talk to a few mates might be able to get you one at a good price i'll see what i can do! why is ur stock BOV playing up or sumfin?

adrian

[APA]

nah niz mine is auto as well! and the whoosh i get from the stock BOV coming outta my pod filter is FARKIN LOUD! so i can imagine what a aftermarket one will sound like!

adrian

[Nizmo]

mines aftermarket - there when i got the car - doesnt make a noise its just leaking air at the moment so its playing havoc with my idling and keeping the revs low so once i get that fixed then i can get it tuned and hopefully it'll be back to its feisty old self - its being sluggish lately and its boring the hell outta me

hmmm wouldnt mind a bit of a ricey loud one. yeah keep your ears out for me anyway - might start looking for one saturday morning because i just want my car back to normal ASAP.

[APA]

adjust the spring tension on the bov you got at moment? have you tried that? that should stop it leakin! just don't adjust it too much that it's too tight for the pressure to release when your off the throttle! are you going to auto salon niz? cam? if you guys are i'll be there saturday, tell me in advanced adn i'll bring the bov along with me on sat incase your nearby i can drop it off!

adrian

[caminperth]

Niz - to fix the problem quickly, why not block off the aftermarket one and use the std one? should fix all the problems lickety split...

[Nizmo]

going on Sunday. Hmmm spring tension - me under bonnet equals disaster - would rather be able to blame someone else if anything goes wrong but i may have to have a look anyway if its easy enough. Where abouts are u adrian? arent u thornlie way?

[APA]

i'm in east cannington i go to thornlie tafe! what type of bov is the one ur using? coz i'm sure if you adjust the spring tension make it just a bit tighter it will stop leaking! coz you haven't upped your boost pressures or anything have ya?

adrian

[Nizmo]

i dont have std one tho - i didnt change it

[caminperth]

ahh k.. so the aftermarket one is hanging off the std mount then I take it?

I'm with Adrian - pull it off, clean it and tighten up the spring pressure.. Maybe get your mechanic to do it? Shouldn't take him more than an hour..

[APA]

why change sumfin if it's already working just needs to be adjusted slightly thats my saying heheh

adrian

[Nizmo]

i think the boost is up a little more than standard honestly i thought everything was standard apart from the obviousl lowering etc in my car when i bought it - but ive learnt lately that all is not what it seems - it has been played with. So im still learning what exactly is under that bonnet - i assumed that BOV was std til i was recently told otherwise - its nothing ricey looks like fairly standard - havent really taken a close look for myself lately - havent had time might have a look see this weekend see if i can find out make etc

[APA]

you can do it yourself niz if ya have the right tools!

you probably wouldn't even need to take it off just adjust the spring tension there is normally a lil knob on top of the valve near where the hose from inlet plenum goes if i do remember rightly!

adrian

[APA]

if it's a aftermarket re-circulative BOV my best bet is it would be a greddy type-s or type-r and they are easy to adjust as it is written on the top of the valve!
