Hey hows it going guys,

I was wondering, when seeing my mates cefiro motor it doesnt seem to have a stock blow off valve and when you change gears it flutters. Now if you look at my r32 its got a stock bov and when u change gears you can here the bov going off, no flutter.

You guys probably have your different opinions on this but its about blocking the stock bov on the r32.

Now it comes down to my question if both cars have a the RB20 does that mean, because the cefiro hasnt got a bov the stock turbo is gonna give up quicker? Cos isnt this chopping or fluttering sound bad for ur stock ceramic turbo? If it is alright for the cefiro to not have a bov would it be alright for a r32 to have its bov removed? If any one can shead some light on this area it would be much appreciated.

Didnt nissan put a stock bov on it for a reason, to protect the turbo from that back pressure then causing the flutter sound? why dont cefiros have a bov?

This has had me baffled for quite a while now, what do u guys think then?

Cheers.

ps. sorry about all the questions.

I doubt the fact you say they are classed as a "luxury" car is a warrant for not having one. If anything it would be the opposite.

Think of a typical luxury car owner and there shock when they heard the sound of flutter! They would be back at the dealer in no time saying something is wrong.

I have a HR31 GTSR, far from luxury and it has no bov from factory. None of the R31 RB20s had bovs. What years were the ceffy and laurels produced?

Maybe it was an emission thing to fit bovs later on? No BOV would have the breather gasses ( dirty oily air) venting to atmo through the filter.

      Ball bearing turbos

      The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.

      Ball bearing turbos

      Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
