well GTRs already run two BOVs standard. They are quite a good set-up. If you must have an aftermarket one consider the Trust Type R kit which replaces the two valves with one big one, or the twin Blitz super sound sequential kit is quite nice too. I run the blitz kit on my GTR and i'm happy with it. sounds good, not too loud. and never had any problem with stalling etc. runs smooth as a babys bum.

Ok thanks so much for your help.

how much did your BOV cost?

Stick with the stock BOV's the aftermarket ones only cause problems

Thats a pretty general statement and isnt completely true at all.

I have run the Trust Type R on my car for 3 years, both before and after installing aftermarket management and I have never had a problem.

yes i concurr. considering i own a GTR with aftermarket blow-off valves i can safely say they have never caused me one problem. also both with stock ecu and aftermarket. no stalling, no hunting idle, no bullshit.

The factory GTR twin BOV's are about the best setup you will ever get in terms of performance. They are not fussed with extreme amounts of horsepower.

Of course if you like pachoo --- pachoooo sounds then you might want to change them.

$600 to change them?

keep the money for something you will really enjoy. Like $600 worth of beer.

Leewah GTR 604rwkw - Stock GTR BOV's

Nige's Supra ~550rwkw - Stock GTR BOV's

Racepace GTR 550rwkw - Stock GTR BOV's

There is absolutely no reason to waste money on BOV's.

If you want some "noise" to get the chicks attention... stick your ass out the window and make a noise each gear change

    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
    • hmmm that's not ideal. This is a pretty new engine right, will be interesting if your engine guy has any theories about causes
    • A universal ball joint removal c press kit is better money spent and will work for the Hicas ball joints.  Here's a 45$ CAD Example. ATPEAM Heavy Duty Ball Joint Press Kit with 4WD Adapters | Professional 4 in 1 Ball Joint Press Removal and Installation Tool for Cars and Trucks | Universal Ball Joint Tool with Storage Case, Ball Joint & Tie Rod Tools - Amazon Canada
