My r32 came with an atmo bov so I don't have any of the stock plumb-back piping etc. I want to replace it with an aftermarket plumb-back item.

I'll probably buy a Blitz Super SOund one from just jap (return type, ie plumb-back) made for my car (unless anyone knows any other good kits for RB20DET).

What else will I need that is unlikely to come with the kit?

Do I just need to make a hose to dump the bov air back to the inlet pipe (where plug has been placed).

Should I use silicone radiator hose type stuff?

Does anyone have a pic of how the stock setup runs?

Cheers :laugh:

Hey mate,

This is the stuff I used when I returned my blow off valve back to standard from a crappy HKS knock off that came with the car....

It's 32mm inner diameter, 40mm outer diameter (fits perfectly over the factory blow off valve). Not sure what the actual plastic is but its really tough, withstands heat pretty well and has a steel spiral moulded through it for strength. It's kinda flexible, but to get from the factory blow off valve location to the factory plumb back location you don't need much flex anyway. You can see in my pics below just how little flex you need to get to the return inlet.

I can't remember how much it cost, but I ordered it in from revolution racegear (steve's speed shop here in Shellharbour).

Here is a couple of pics of my setup with the piping above and a factory blow off valve....

Where it actually plumbs in is kinda hard to take pics of, but if you have the standard intake pipe hooked up, its just the big outlet there. The little one will be for the crank case gasses. You will most likely need a small length of metal pipe to connect the return hose to the intake pipe...half inside the return pipe, the other half inside the inlet on the intake pipe... (i used a small length that came with a blow off valve i bought ages ago)... but it's all pretty straight forward.

Hope that helps mate.

I have a Greddy Tyre R BOV and here is an example of another way of routing your bov back to intake. It doesnt have to be from the factory location, and all you need to do is get the air back to the intake pipe.

haha I used that stuff on my old Black 32 Gts-t... Was a fail whenever the car got hot the hose couldn't stand the temps and would melt :)

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
