i had an atmo bov mounted where the stock one goes but as soon as i had to pop the bonnent at an RBT thats the first thing the cops saw. DEFECT

I was thinking of remounting it somewhere under the drivers side headlight out of sight. I think i might need to get a plenum chamber to do that though.

Something to consider

That's why my atmo was mounted inside the drivers guard, don't have it anymore tho - went back to the stocker.

I think you are confused.. he is talking about the COLD pipe coming from the stock cooler, it has his Blitz BOV attached to it. THIS pipe will be replaced by the piping in the kit, he is asking if he should try put his Blitz BOV in the same spot that it currently is or put it on the crossover pipe where the stock BOV sits.

I've seen adaptors for RB20/25's are my local Malz (our version of Autobarn), bolts in the stock location and has a 90deg bend in it. My R2D2 was actually mounted inside the front right guard.. well out of the way of prying police eyes :closedeyes:

THANK YOU haha at least someone got what I was trying to say!!!! Yeah Il just get an adaptor I think although I wouldnt mind it down in the front bar!

Because it doesnt fit. Need an adaptor

What have other people used to block the plumb back pipe off with....Anyone know?

Someone has actually used a coke bottle lid and then put a hose clamp on in mine.

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?

      Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).

      So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By tsuokun · Posted

      Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
