If anyone has a bolt on atmo BOV that is in good working condition for an R33 (whether it be on or off your car, i can do all the work if needed) that i can try to confirm my bov is stuffed it would be greatly appreciated. Has to have a bolt on flange to suit standard pipe to make things easier I can meet up with you. Im in bankstown area but willing to travel up to half hour say so if anyone can find it in the goodness of there heart to help me out id appreciate it

Question With My Ssq Bov With My R33gtr
tek_01 replied to andy95'R33GTR's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Mine sounds exactly as the one in the first vid. Problem is when i undo the bolt for the spring it flutters more. I would of thought this would loosen it hence making it vent easier instead of not letting it come out? ps its just a copy ssqv but should work on same principle -
Yes Another Brake Squealing Thread
tek_01 replied to tek_01's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
just in surfers atm so havent had a chance to check thread. Basicaly what i have now is brake pad -> rubber shim -> metal shim1 ->grease inbetween->metal shim2 note, NO goo was used with this setup as it says not to use with the rubber shims i grease the 2 pins and the clips that holds the brake pads in where it makes contact with the pins. NOT the springy metal bit that goes through the end of the pins as that is the safety mechanism and dont want that sliding out lol i used wheel bearing grease but now there is a real light squeal after driving to QLD but not bad at all and if it stays like this i will be happy. will try with proper copper grease when i get my hands on some and hopefully it keeps longer -

well omfg i may have fixed it well anyway we will see how it goes in a weeks time used grease on the pins and retainling clip where pin makes contact and in between shims. Also used the rubber anti squeal shims on the back of the brake pad and no squeal! went for a 45 min drive and only had 1 real minor squeal out of the whole drive maybe my joy will be short-lived but f**k does it sound good when theres no squeal -

tek_01 replied to tek_01's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
yes they were labeled and im sure i got them the right way but now i am having second thoughts NYtSKY what brand are your rotors? i dont know how to tell by the vanes, you can barely see between the rotor -

tek_01 replied to tek_01's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
how sure are you? the RDA ones from the group buy i am talking about so the way the slots go they 'cut' into your rotors rather than lean away from them someone else can confirm?????????????? (this may be my squealing problem..prob not tho) -
R34 Fuel Filler Leaking?
tek_01 replied to nissanmanS12's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
mine had same problem check the filler neck itslef the one with the flap. when they import them i am sure they put this bit in and do a shit job at that mine was stuck in using some plumbing tape or some shit. Took it out, cleaned it than used some "quick-steel- i think its called and sealed her up yes now i get the pssssssht when releasing the petty cap, sometimes tho i guess depends on temperature and how much is left in the tank -
The white one in the first post, amazing...until i saw the back.. bad choice of rear styling but front/side view looks real good (bar the petrol cap) good idea i rekon as 33 fronts are pretty crappy especially with those ghey yellow headlights!
-
Id go 34 out of the lot but 33 is not far behind. nice a phat 32's just never did it for me... not sleek enough like an s15 nor fat enough like a 33 its sort of inbetween but it all depends on you and yes they look much better in real life ... oh so fat =)

Rwk On A R33gtst Needed To Match A 300rwk Vy Ss?
tek_01 replied to R33GOD's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
i dont think a 175rwkw would be a 300kw vy ss standard quarter times for my bosses senator was 13.7 last time i looked it up which is the 298kw version skyline with 175 which is basically an exhaust and about 10psi i think would lose not by much tho -

tek_01 replied to tek_01's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
not really no, rotors are smooth to touch and no dust or very little to be seen -
Yes its normal and yes its your oil pressure raises as the revs raise, also takes a while to settle when car is cold as you mentioned halfway is 55psi if you convert it to psi i would worry if it wouldnt go up with revs!

*cough* rip-off *cough* Thats dirty to charge that much if it was only a balance

for me, the more heat the worse it seems first 3 or 4 stops there is no sound but than it gets constant after that will try greasin the pins but prob wont do nothing -

Question: what way do the slots go on the rotors just out of curiosity when the wheel spins do the slots lean into the calipers or away from the calipers if you know what i mean -

tek_01 replied to tek_01's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Does it real bad when going downhill like in a car park or the like so im guessing on a downhill it would use the front brakes even more correct? if thats true there goes my theory of its the back brakes
