Gtr Bov In Gtt Not Sounding Right

[ashneel]

ok so i got my hands on a GTR BOV and a bigger hose for the plumb back and connected it all back up just like the stock GTT one was.

all is well but when i come on boost say around 0.5bar maybe more (highflow turbo set to 1 bar) while still in gear and and let of the accelerator the car makes the normal psssh sound but it also makes a (very hard to describe) different noise also. kinda like a viberation noise but not quite.

ill see if i can get a recording of it.

but has anyone else experienced anything different with a GTR BOV?

im not having any other problem. car is holding boost fine. idleing fine. just the noise. and the strange noise is pretty loud too if your outside or have the window down.

help.

they wont sound the same as a GTS-t BOV if thats what you were thinking?

[ashneel]

ye i know it wont sound the same but the noise its making now kinda doesnt sound healthy for it.

[R31 POWER]

around 6seconds into the vid, does it sound like that? If i get it onto boost abit and then half throttle, it will do that sound. A mate thinks it sounds like a poo going down the pipes LOL

[Basti]

i get the same bloody noise. if i boot it, no noise. if im barely making boost no noise. its during normal accelleration that it makes it. a kinda honking vibration

when's the next meet? i'll show you if you rock up. remind me or some shiz

thats the sound hahahaha

thats it. like taking a bog with your ass sealed and you get that deap noise lol

any idea what it is??? if its anything bad? at first i though it was just the stiffer springs not opening enough. if i accelerate hard, change gears and accelerate again its fine. only whne slowly getting of boost it makes the noise.

I guess it's normal When it first did it i shit hahaha, thought something fell off the car.

[ashneel]

well as long as its normal for a GTR BOV to do that lol

hey not exactly on topic here but...along the lines i guess.

ive got a gtr blow off valve and i removed my standard r34 gtt one to replace with gtr, now when i pushed the valve up into the gtt one it is very stiff and hard but when i push the gtr one (with my fingers fron the sealed side) it feels softer...has anyone experienced this with there blow fof valve as i dont want to put the gtr one on and go for a tune with it if its stuffed ya know!

any help would be much appreciated.

[ashneel]

my GTT BOV was pretty stiff but my GTR was stiffer

hey ash,

long time no speak... i changed my gtst bov to a gtr one and also got that exact same issue! but i got rid of it..

i dont know if its the same for u, but the pipe i got to suit wasn't exactly perfect and I had a guess that the sound was of some air in the pipe as it was expanding or contracting... anyway, got a hose joiner to try to keep it more solid, and worked fine, not an issue any more!

can send u some pics if u want

i thought that was normal? i swear there are some threads around about that and it turned out fine... my gtr bov is alot softer then my gtst one, but it does the job better so I assume its fine...

[R31 POWER]

I to noticed it was fairly soft. Holds 19psi to redline so cant mean its a bad thing.

[allthewaytotheskyline]

yeh its odd hows it softer...well i hope i dont have any issues...i just cbf for hassles especially during tuning etc...

[ashneel]

adam if you can send some pics that will be great.

it was a bit of a pain trying to find the right sized hose.

[vidospace]

So whats the advantage in having a GTR bov anyway?

O great, another thread with somebody being worried about how their blow off valve sounds

oh wow thanks for your input...

vidospace the advantage with a GTR BOV is it holds more boost. only worth it if your running more boost then stock really as its a plumb back so its nice and legal.

[WYTSKY]

alright, took some shots.

not the prettiest thing in the world, but she works well. definitely alleviated a lot of tension across the pipe.

im pretty sure it was a radiator hose bleeder or something, because I had to buy that gold blocking screw. was like 30 bucks all up and works fine.

you can see in this pic, this is how it used to look (im pulling on the hose)

Adam

P.S u can leave the screw out and it gives it a lil bit more of a whistle, but im not into that sorta thing

I slapped a GTR bov on my car after I got rid of the megasonic ears bleed loud wank bov. I then got stickered to made it plumb back. It made that fats noise. Like air was blowing past the rubber pipe making in vibrate sounding like a fart. Another of my friends gets that too. Wonder why that happens. It atmo again as I got the sticker off. so meh
