If your talking about Turbo Flutter you can get that sound by just removing your BOV. Aftermarket BOV's do this as well becasue the spring is stronger than a stock BOV, so it only opens up at high boost. Stock BOV's have a soft spring so they open on low boost. When the BOV doesnt open the air bounces off the turbo inside the pipes casuing it to make the Flutter sound. So the when your not running high boost the BOV wont open and you will get the Flutter sound or as you say psstt...ttts...ttts...ttts...ttts..ttts, lol.

Its actually running no bov at all that makes that sound, if you block up your stock one the air will have no where to go when the throttle closes so it reverses and goes back through the compressor blades getting chopped up and then back out the pod. This gives you the flutter noise.

A big thread on it here http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=60655

Does anyone know if it would make any difference (to performance or sound) if i was to put my hksssq where my stock one is. when i brought the car it was configured in a wierd way where a hks bov was installed but the tubes connected up to the stock bov and in affect im running 2 bov's.

I just wanted to clean up and possibly gett the fluterr sound so was wondering if i directly replaced the stcok one for the hks one would it affect performance and can i get the flutter.

cheers.

locoloc: are you sure the standard one isnt blocked off with a gasket between the flange? But yes you can run just the one if it will fit on the flange.

DFAULT: on most there is a bolt with a lock nut, adjusting this will make it softer or harder.

If you want the flutter sound you have to remove/block off both your bov's.

Is the HKS one set up so its recirculating?

im pretty sure that somehow the HKS SSQ somehow opens - closes - opens - closes, gving not quite a flutter sound, but a sequential release, dont quote me though :wave:

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
