ive never done it i should clarify but i think u just open the stock bov and block it off..

prepare yourself for a lot of dead pidgeon posts though

are u running a pod filter? if not its not gonna sound that great anyway, not to mention your spool time will be slower

go on google, you will find it, esspecially on vl turbo forums..

but the easiest way to do it. is unbolt your blow off valve, get that gasket and trace it onto a drink can then cut it out, then bolt up your blow off valve back to how it was.. only put that small bit of tin between the gasket and the blow off valve.. thats the way i done it, and occasioanly when i get bored i change it around.

Yeah I did this many many moons ago. Good ol Coke can gasket, along with upgraded intercooler and pod filter.

Good for giggles for a week or 2. Got old pretty quick though. Didn't like the stalling problems but did like the pops and gurgled it gave up when backing off.

I've got an adjustable turbosmart BOV plumbed back...

with the standard turbo it sounded ok... but when i started pumping 19psi through the piping it went crazy

especially on the motorways... 5th gear... gave the throttle a little tap then back off and all you hear is... tsu tsu tsu tsu tsu tsu hahaha

but yeh... getting over it a bit... might loosen the BOV to just get a big old whoosh!

i did this to my car.. =) when i got an aftermarket BOV. i pulled it appart and added a spacer inbetween the spring and piston to make the spring tension harder. so on really hi boot it would open and on low boost it would flutter! =)

Do it...... coke can gasket (in my case, carlton mid can gasket :cheers: )

I put it in for a week or two then take it out when I get sick of the lag.

I'll probably put it back in again soon :D

I'm also considering taking my turbosmart plumb back apart and adding a space saver, just not sure if I can bring myself to do actually pull it apart. It seems kinda hard...

Here is a way you can do it and avoid all of the stalling issues.

What you really need is a door hinge, some blutack, rubber bands and an icecream container...oh and a mirror...

1. Screw (or blutack) the hinge to the cowling around your cooling fan...cut a peice of the icecream container, preferably an L-shape and blutack it to the other side of the hinge..Put the rest of the blutack on the end of the l-shape..

2. Then get the rubber bands and place them between the hinge and your fully hectik sick oil filler cap...(the one thats make an extra 38rwkw)...

3. Go for a drive and adjust the rubber bands so that when you back off the throttle, the L-shaped plastic swings into the fan...

4. Once you have made all of the appropriate adjustments and have it fluttering just right, pull over, pull out the mirror and look in it. You will be looking at yet another face that has reduced Skylines to levels of riceness that we commonly see today....

I'm a solutions man...Let me know what you think...

    • No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.
    • Lol yeah I ordered the clips mentioned and as far as the amayama diagrams go i think thats all I'll need. Fogured id ask, sometimes people's first hand experience doesnt always match up to diagrams haha, i guess I'll wing it and worse comes to worse I'll just deal with it as I go
    • Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol
    • I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.  
    • hello! does anyone have a schematic that shows how to test the blower motor resistor for the vac system? i believe the part# is 27761-15U00. I think the resistor is toast, but would like to be able to test it somehow before i embark on the journey to find a new one. cheers! 27761-15U00
