BOV = pop off valve. Blocking off the BOV (or pop off valve whatever you wish to call it) has the potential to sound sweet (to some people) but it is there that the benefits end. i tried it on my 33 gtst and it ran sh1t, stalling and bogging down when gear shifting. on top of that the airbox/afm/etc muffled the dose so i could hardly hear it.

if you want to dose... get a VL. don't butcher your skyline like that. btw this advice is coming to you from a (former) die-hard dose fan, should give you an idea of how badly youll soon dislike it.

Cheers

"dose"

First time i heard a name like that. Still don't really know what it means. Does it mean remove the stock BOV completely and sealing the intake pipe shut?

yes that's what it means. gives the unique zzzzutututu 'pigeon in your air intake' sort of sound. admittedly i like the noise and the subculture, but at the end of the day it makes the car run poorly (see my post above) and who knows what sort of internal damage it's doing.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
