Hi Peole.

I've put a metal plate on my BOV to block it off and i'veblocked the return pipe but when you rev it and then let go of the GAS it tries to stall. I've done it to my old r33 gtst and it was fine but it just doesn't seen to work on the GTR any advice guy's????

and i'm only blocking them off to see if that's the reason my car is not holding boost properly.

RB26's run like much better with te bov's connected and plumbing back.

Anthony stop being a lebbo and leave it the way nissan designed it.

IF YOU WANT DOES BUT A VL TURBO

i think your referring to DOSE?

and hasnt he already said he is testing for boost leaks?

Under the BOV is the way to go mate

Yea i did that and i blocked off the return pipe. I still have the vacume hoses going to the top of the BOV's. but when i rev the car it tries to stall.

does this mean that there is another problem????

Take off the vacuum line on top, block that with a screw and cable tie

Take off the bov, remove the gasket, trace thhe gasket on to a cut up coke can and cut it out.

Drill the holes where the bolts go through.

put the new coke gasket between the bov plate and original gasket, then fit the bov back on.

remove the return line, put a coke bottle cap in the return line, and use a clamp to hold it in place.

there.. all blocked off.

will it still stall?

Yes.

All I can do to help you in give you $50.

in return for your faulty factory GTR bovs..

you can then use this $50 to take it to a mechanic.

no refunds.

    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
    • To clarify what I posted above, I thought you both had a situation where it cancelled sooner one way than the other.....if it is reasonably even where it cancels in either direction that is probably normal (consider gentle movements like lane changes, you don't want it to need half a turn of lock to turn the indicators off)
