hey all,

well i finally got my R32 gtst, although i want to make the exhaust legal by putting a high flow resonator on it.....its currently at 120db and want it under 90db. who makes some good decent priced high flow resonators that u guys know of?? prefrebally in the SE area of melb closer to Glen waverely the better.

Also the car has been broken into at one point and the locks are a bit buggered up, who sells and installs locks for the R32 also in the same area???

its also got a really loud fluttereing BOV, think its stock one not sure haven't had a good look yet, wots the process of making it a plumb back???

hope u guys and gals can help. ASAP!! cheers!!!

i've had a look and it is a stock plumb back, but because its got higher boost running and a POD i think thats the reason its fluttereing so much? wot u guys reckon? would the WOLF3D have anything to do with it??

would putting a stock airbox and lowering the boost decrease some of the noise??

I think Before you go about "modding" your car I think you need to decide what you want from it in the long run, Becuase doing things twice can become a real costly affair,

Now a fluttering blowoff? what you mean exactly is there a "chhh"

sortoff sound aswell as the fluttering or is there just only flutter

because if ther eis only a flutter the previous owner has blocked the plumb back to the airinlet forcing the air to be thrown back to atmo through the turbine this is generally not very good for the turbo.

yeah more a sound as when i back off it goes chhh chhh chhh chhh chhh ch ch ch pretty quick but with gaps inbetween, not the psst from a BOV, as i said in last post i think, i've had a look and its running the blumb back and the noise seems to be coming more from the POD area. not the blumb back thingy

Yep it sounds like the prev owner has blocked the plumb line on your intake plenum undo the BOV and see if they have put in a spacer plate to block it up. if not they blocked it up in the line that runs to the turbo inlet (assuming this is the STOCK BOV)

hope this makes sense to you

The BOV located on top of the INLET PLENUM is held in by 2 bolts undo them and it will lift right off.

Good luck.

well PRO_32, thanks heaps, u were right!! i pulled off the bov and there was a plate blockin the hole. ripped it off, sealed it with some silicon and bolted it back on, now all i get is one swoosh of air gushing out. i'm guessing thats how the plumb back should sound. Thou will this now stuff up the fuel maps on the WOLF EMS?

Mufflers Now in Oakleigh [1611 Dandenong Road, near FTG road] and talk to Matt. Phone is 9563-1166 Apparently these guys do a swirl flow resonator that keeps the flow and cuts the noise well. GO THE 4 DOOR!!!

thanks Autotrust, thou part of the nissansilvia.com group buy i got a good deal on a bigger muffler today. i had a straight thru one on and at same time i realised i had a stock cat on the 3" piping, so i got the bigger slightly more buffled muffler put on and gonna get a larger high flow cat on soon. so in long run will be less restrictive and still legal cos i'm just under 90db!!! And yeah go the 4 door!!

    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
