Hey ya'll,

I had an R33 NA for 6 months, then i just recently sold it and bought another R33, but its a GTST :(

So im kinda new to turbo and whats good and bad, i understand the principal, but anything beyond that, im still learning.

I have the stock plump back BOV and i am wanting to upgrade to something after maket. I have read the thread about ATMOS are GAY.

I would like to find out for myself, see if it really does get annoying. LOL

I was looking on ebay and say these. Im just wondering are they super shit, or decent?

- This one

- This one

- And this one

Give me your thoughts guys... I want something that makes a noise, but not soemhting that makes the car shudder like some have said...

LOL

The Apoxi blow off smart from brotec is the better of those I have seen and very well priced.

How much are brotec's?

Are all those ones on ebay cheap sh!t?

- Also blitz, was that a typo "apoxi"? or is that really the brand.

Cheers,

apoxi is the type of brotec he's talking about. it's similar to the apexi ones, but not a copy as such, it actually has some improvments over the genuine apexi stuff.

personally i've had some troubles with the brotec stuff over the years, but that's probably more installation related as their quality can't be faulted. I had heard they were now at sportamotive as prior to that they just operated out of the back of a truck (much like the snap-on tools guys do).

Anyway, i'd certainly give it a go. In fact i've got a pic of one here:

have you had a look in the for sale section? there are usually a few BOV's here and there...

I have a blitz supersound BOV.. it came on my 32gtst when it came over from JP.. it's used in conjunction with the stock BOV (and sounds good)... But I'm getting really over "phhhs" sound...

if you are being serious, then no, they aren't. Maximum noise generally points to a bad thing, meaning they are attention seaker BOV's which are designed just for that, maximum noise. You can hear the stocker pretty well if you have a POD and a FMIC.

If this is a pisstake, then all you need to do to make them one better is attach a duck caller to the trumpet of one of them or a soccer refferree's whistle and you'll be set.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
