Eh, I was going to keep it, but I would never install it.. so, someone else may as well scare small children!

As the subject states, for sale is a Turbosmart Vee-port blow off valve. Looks pretty. Look, picture!

Comes with an adapter to fit onto VR4/evo pipework.. so, it should fit GTST pipes no worries.

They're 300 bucks new.. I'd be happy with 100 bucks. Or, if anyone plays guitar, I will trade for a decent quality volume pedal (Morley, Ernie Ball etc).

Y r u Selling it??

Does this fit on StraightAway?? I have a R33 GTS-T with the Stock BOV still Installed..

Will i need an Adaptor..??? What is this Plumback thing about...

Cheers..

P.S.( I'm in WA so i can Pick it Up)

I'm selling it as it is unfortunately incompatible with my piping kit. Basically, it hits my shifter cable.

It is not plumb-back. A plumb back BOV is one that vents back into the intake system. This particular blow off valve vents air direct to atmosphere, and makes a quite loud "psssh" noise. Great for scaring small dogs.

Anyway, as far as I'm aware, it will bolt straight on to a skyline, you guys basically have the same flange and even the same BOV as evos/VR4's. Someone will no doubt correct me if I am wrong. Just unbolt the stocky, put some sealant on the gasket, bolt it on. Connect vacuum hose. Additionally, you would have to block off the part where your stock BOV reconnects to your intake (not hard, just find a rubber bung or something like that, hose clamp it on nice and tight).

And finally.. and someone will probably have to talk you through this.. I think using an atmo BOV such as this one creates problems with skylines, as there are issues with unmetered air.

I am in SA, I have no problems posting it though. Will probably cost 15 bucks or so (it's sort of heavy).

Edit: Just did a search, the unmetered air thing is just if you don't plug the plumb-back hole up (obvious).

Also, the other problem is stalling due to weak springs in the BOV allowing it to open when it's not meant to. This thing is practically new, and the spring is adjustable, so if you have a stalling issue, just tighten the spring.

Hope this helps
