hello all

yea ...just bought one of those turbo tech manual boost controllers ...and went to install it and realised that the cefiro doesnt have a stock bov .........is it safe to increase boost without a bov?

does anyone know the reason why they didnt come with them while the r32's did?...was is becasue it was family car .....?

thanks

I can't speak for nissan themselves as far as WHY they did not fit one........

BUT, i personally feel you will be fine to run up to 0.9bar without a BOV (preferably FMIC attached for the sake of your engine)

OR you could buy the Blitz BOV i have here that came off an RB20det R32 and still has the pipe (i assume it will suit the cefiro RB20det too)

Installation consists of two hose clamps, remove pipe, replace pipe then tighten clamps.......away you go PPPSSSSSCCHHT

Cheers

I found if you have a front strut brace you can not used the R32 'J' pipe BOV pipe as it fouls with the strut brace

yea i have a front strut brace and was thinking the same thing ......

hey man i didnt have one so we fabriscated our own pieces so i could have a plumb back

yea ...i want to go plumback to .....u got a pic of ur setup?

and yea front mount will be coming soon ........it will have to wait a little bit though ...cause i just spent a heap of money on wheels

I have the same problem. Just bought a strut brace and it doesn't fit b/c of the bov. :mellow:

One way around it could be to get an aftermarket bov that sits on an adaptor plate, which would sit it sideways instead of up. But i don't really want to waste money on a bov that will only make my car run worse and annoy me after a few months.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
