check this out guys!!

when i bought the car i thought it had a stock BOV on .. but today i saw a piece of metal with "blitz" on it.. under the air box

im like cool iv got sumthin thats blitz...

i take a closer look and its a F**kn bov!!!

some idiot but a blitz bov on the car under the airbox and left the stock 1 there!!

and coz the stock 1 is ferther back the blitz 1 doesnt even get to go off!! it aint loud at all..

u cant hear the bov properly when u just rev it on the spot! only a lil on changes!!

what the hell do i do??

i was thinking of swaping the blitz and stock bovs around so the blitz 1 is the 1 used first for better sound..

or maybe replace the stock 1 with the blitz and some how block the hole where the blitz 1 was off (iv got nfi how to block it!)

what do uz recon??? :P

dam prank! nice position! - my blitz is right under the airbox :P iv got no idea why they put it there.. but it should sound better after i remove the airbox and get a filter ;)

prank.. the problem with mine was that the stock was not blocked off..

so the air was filtering through the stock 1 and didnt have a chance to get to the blitz.

i fixed it today..;)

i but a piece of metal between the piping and the stock valve..

now he air goes straight to the blitz bov!

sounds nice!!!

but i need more boost and a POD filter and exhaust ;) to make it sound louder:uh-huh: :D;)

yeah. its VERY loud there... if i hit boost hard through any tunnels (spesh the harbour tunnel) it is seriously deafening. My whole front bar shakes when it goes off.

Yeah, i luuuurve my DTMS!! :P:D (thanks too).

JiMb0 experienced my bov at low boost last w/end. ;)

that was Bec 2. :) I have 2 becs, my gf and my other bec (a good friend) - that was my friend Bec, not my gf.... it gets confusing.

yeah, when i lifted off it had only hit 2psi. :) or thereabouts.

GTR80Y, i need to angle the valve upward!! ;)

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
