i always thought that the flutter noise caused by VLs and other cars is because there is to much air being forced into the car but for no where to go after that?

After watching the HKS R34 on youtube in action i absolutely love the sound it makes. i never was a fan of the flutter but damn it sounds sexi. i urge anyone who loves or hates the sound to watch it.

my question is....if this is bad for the turbo...because the air is being forced back and around the exhaust/turbo.

why has HKS allowed this to happeN?

and its not just HKS.........

I have looked over that car in person in Japan and its modified beyond your wildest dreams anDru, its not some sick VL with a pod filter and intercooler.

i have the high performance imports mag review on the car and i know wats inside.

i jsut want to know why.....after so much modding there is still excess air not being released...or in short why is it still fluttering?

i swear if i could id make my car the exact same sound drooooooooolz

lol gotta love that drift king tchuchiya

sorry but im gonna have to quote u

Dont quote me here but i think the reason they dont put blow off valves on it is so that it has quick off-on throttle response.

Think about it, its HKS... do they care if their turbo dies?

but is that the only thing dat gets damaged....the turbo?.........nothign else?

oh and can someone tell me...the stock turbo on a r34 gtt. if i had no bov...compared to one that did.

how much faster are we guessing the turbo will die....if both cars are treated equally. (theres always someone who has to get smart and say shit like that)

Wouldnt recommend taking it off. Guess Nissan did put the blow off valve there for a reason.

Blocking it or taking it off will cause you to run rich, as in popping almost every gear change, and cause your car to frequently stall.

As for the life of a stock turbo, the wheel is ceramic. People's ceramic turbo's fail with blow off valves, so imagine without :|

Ive got a similar 'flutter' sound from my turbo!..talkin' to a guy at my local w'shop he said Ive a 'soft turbo'!! is this the same thing?? the explanation he gave me is much like whats been said already by the guys above...Im gonna keep it anyway sounds to good to lose :D

lol

* takes away andruu's thread making privlidges

yeah. coz inspecting the car in person, and reading about in HPI are totally the same :D

no its not the same but u get a preety rough idea of wat its got...compared to someone who just saw it on youtube......

    • Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷
    • I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
