and i currently have one on my RB25 with stock ecu and AFM and on both HARD and SOFT settings it works fine. never has my car idled funny or stalled. When on the SOFT setting, exhaust pops and farts a bit much though. very reliable BOV though :laugh:

holy shit, did you do a search?

This topic is covered about 10 times day.

But To sum it up - You have an AFM. Put an Atmospheric BOV on there to try and sound cool and you won't because your car is stalling all the time.

holy shit, did you read any of the replies?

seems that there are a few people with them that aren't having problems.

Yeah this guy up here has the factory BOV and a Blitz bov at the same time, and stalls all the time and runs heaps rich, nice pops on gear changes :whistling:. He just wont believe me when i tell him get rid of the atmo bov. But the best part is, he reckons it gives him like 15rwkw having 2 bovs hahaha.

BTW sorry for the hijack

peace

a few vs about 5,000,000 that have problems

its pretty straight forward what happens. Your car runs like crap because a atmo BOV is not suited for cars that run a AFM.

Oh, and yeah, my comment about searching still stands, because there is 11 millions threads about this. They even have replies from people that claim to have it working properly!

yep, aftermarket management will let you run a vent to atmo bov...

stock ecu fuels for re-circ air from stock bov, when no air due to venting to atmo you get that shiz fart/pop from overfueling ie mega rich fuel into hot front + cat = pop, no cat = flames out of exhuast

according to what I have READ !!! ps my nfo is not 100% as i have not done it, i like re-circ due to coppers having an issue with compressed air release coming from something on 4 wheels or its too loud, which ever they choose to use. yes... both are absolute bullshit but meh.... game on

Nope - I'm running a Powerfc and it still does it.

Its not the ECU - Its the AFM that causes the problem.

It measures the air, the ECU puts in fuel to match, and then the BOV leaks it on idle. (because since the Plenum is on vacuum on idle, its enough to pull the BOV open a little bit) and yeah, air leak.

Hence the rough running.

Hey guys just thought I'd add my experience. . . '95 R33, had a Turbosmart vee port on it when I got the car, ran very rich & sluggish on gear changes, stalled on hill starts, rolling up to red lights etc. . . changed for a stock BOV and have not stalled it since ~ 4 months ago.

On the turbosmart website you can find instructions for PROPER adjustment of the BOV, which will help a bit.

Anyone wanna buy a Vee port? :)

Cheers

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
