Hey Everyone!! Ok, whats happening is that i got my car from japan and see that it has both the standard BOV and an aftermarket BLITZ one hooked up and both working. Can someone pls tell me why this would be so and if i will do any damage by taking off and blocking up the lines for the Blitz one and keeping the stock one on??? (i want performance more than show). See pics attached. Btw, its an R33 GTS-T.

hey man, I got no clue why ... I could have a guess but dont want to point you in the wrong direction...

the only thing im looking at... isnt it weird how the pipe that comes off the standard bov and arm has a perfect spot with screw holes for the other bov? almost like it was made for it.... maybe its so you can have performance and sounds??? just a thought...

aslong as both are working - take off the one you dont want and block it (and it's hose) up. Wont do anything bad.

Can't imagine why u have 2 bov's.. maybe someone was to lazy to swap bovs so just bought a aftermarket pipe with bov on it and stuck it on?

the only thing im looking at... isnt it weird how the pipe that comes off the standard bov and arm has a perfect spot with screw holes for the other bov?

Oh, lol. Nah, that pipe that the Blitz BOV is attached to is custom, not standard. It was made most likely with the intention of blocking off the standard BOV and having the aftermarket one down there on the intake pipe on its own.

:ninja:

Yeah, haha. Japs can be funny ppl (not meaning that in a racist way in any way shape or form). The car also came with 2 flares, random ass cup holders and a MASSIVE rear view mirroe that clips over the original (with a felix the cat sticker on it haha).

Anyone else got any idea whats gone on here???

well in any r33 (i have the owners manual so this is 100% true) they were fitted with flares so

i guess the owner in japan thought it was good to stay safe and cup holders are a Optional feature on a sedan......so im guessing yours is a sedan??????

the mirror is probity just a super cheap auto item japan style and gives more reason they liked to be safe :ninja:

Mine had the exact same setup with the same Bov when mine was imported :w00t:

ran both bovs the stock one not blocked off just set up as standard with the blitz bov connected up

i found that if i ran the blitz one by itself it would stall :)

i soon got a front mount. I then removed the blitz bov and ran the stock bov by itself

i found the response from the car after i did this increased a heap :)

the blitz bov is somewhere in the shed lol

my 2 cents ;)

had the exact same set up myself...

turned out my stock one was blocked off, tho looking at yours its not as obvious but there may well be a thin piece of sheet metal in there (gasket type). Mine was like a 10mm thick steel plate so it was obvious.

So yeh i would think that ur stocker is blocked off...tho as someone said above their stocker wasnt blocked off in their set up....so.. dunno

with mine blocked off and same bov as you it made the chu chu chu sound down low..and then a proper choooo blow off up high....chu chu chu sound is from air reversal through the turbo.....chooooo sound up top was the blow off valve opening and venting air. You can adjust when these happen on the nut on the bov...so as much or as little chu chu chu as u want......fully.

ps my preference is not.. so if anyone wants to buy my blitz blow valve (i painted it in black for stealth) then they may...just pm.

your biggest problem is blowby looking at the pics.

having two bov's is not damaging anything it just meant the previous owner likes a lil noise. you might find the blitz one is wound up az bit tight to stop it going off in low throttle situations. You could remove it or you could keep it if you like it. removing it wont magically give you 20kw at the wheels or anything

Yeah ive checked and the sandard one isnt blocked off. Im thinking about doing what SeanO did and just waiting till i get a FMIC and taking off the Blitz one. Or mayb taking the blitz one off and blocking up the standard one to dose lol!!! Will dosing get you a defect in qld??? As its not a bov...so cant be illegal...????

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
