Hi guys.

I have a couple issues with my 33, mainly if im creeping forward in traffic and jab it for a sec, when returning to idle it drops very low and nearly stalls, has actually stalled a couple times.

Now when I got the car a month or so ago it had an Atmo BOV on it and I believe that is whats causing the issue here, inthat its dumping air that its already factored in to be fueled so it overfuels for a second, runs rich and nearly dies.

I must say, I do like the psssh sound but.

Anyway, im wondering if there are alternatives out there, or is it possible to adjust the BOV to not vent so easily, so its only blowing off under decent levels of presure? Or am Is my best bet to buy an aftermarket plumb back BOV and go without the Pssh.

Or as another option is there a way to trick the ECU to stop this occuring?

Advice is apreciated.

my plumb-back is just as loud, if not louder, than alot of Atmo BOV's i've heard... (assuming you have a Pod Filter as well)

it's a GReddy Type S.

the stock BOV is also quite loud, and works just as good... can pick them up for around $30 or less, so just pick one up, sell the atmo bov, and you'll have a car that's running better, will still sound tough, and you'll make money from selling the atmo one :(

Lachlan33- try tightening the spring tension, and possibly get some new plugs. i had a few mates with the same issue. new plugs solved it.

[mez]- i had the problem where it would die after giving it a bit on the stock bov. new plugs fixed that.

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
