Hey guys,

I did a quick search but couldn't really find anything that detailed what needs to be done to fit GTR bov's to my R34 GTT engine.

From what i understand, GTR's use a twin bov system, which means i would need to get some custom piping done. Basically i just wanted to know if anyone has done this before and what was involved, or if not, if someone knows what exactly would need to be done to fit them?

Cheers,

Martin

Oh, really? I thought they needed the twin setup to work properly? Although to be honest i don't understand why...

So you can just use one and they fit straight on to where the RB25 one was? Still sound the same as they do on a GTR? Sound isn't important, i just think they sound awesome, so if they sound the same then thats a bonus :blink:

the hose can be "made" to fit..

needs more lube and pushing

Are we still talking about the bov? :blink:

Lol, thanks guys, so i can use a single GTR bov and it is a straight bolt on replacement for the RB25 one, no modification needed?

What diameter piping does the GTR bov use compared to the RB25 bov, do you know? Don't have the new engine yet, so can't go measure for myself :)

Hey guys,

Just wondering if running a single GTR bov will produce the same sound as running the twin set up? I just absolutely love the sound of the GTR bov's, but if it's not gonna sound the same with a single bov then i want to try and get two working...

This is the sound i am after:

that 2nd youtube video is great but they arent stock bovs. the stock ones wont give flutter.

I've been told that's not actually flutter, it's the turbulence created by the air flowing from the two bov's into the single return pipe. My mates GTR sounds exactly like this and the bovs are definitely stock on his car

GTR BOV's will "teeter" off each other etc, however one will cleraly not do that on its own.

This is what a single will sound like if the BOV can't quite pas all the air (this was a single on mine, it was ok, tiny flutter)

Ok but that still sounds quite similar to the twin setup. I'm not really after the flutter effect, just the sound of the bov. Does your bov sound like that all the time, or just under heavy load?

Say i wanted to install the twin setup on my car, what would need to be done? Is it possible? How would it differ to the single setup?

Hi Guys, sorry to hijack the thread but are you using GTR bovs on RB25DET's just for noise or is there another purpose?

Will the standard RB25DET one handle 300rwkw?

MOST people don't use them just for the noise, rather the fact that they are a very very good bov and can handle a lot of boost. I personally love the sound of them, i think they are the best sounding bov you can get. So i'm going for the upgrade, but really want the sound as well seeing as they sound so good.

Whats wrong with your GTT bov? When does it max out power wise?

Honestly i wouldn't know, engine will only be going in next week sometime :P

Stock GTT bov would be more than capable for me at first, i will only be running 12psi when i first get it back. But once i get the new turbo i will be running 18psi+, so i would like the GTR bov to have the peace of mind handling that boost.

If you're not after the sound then really i wouldn't worry about upgrading unless you are having problems with your bov.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
