hey fellas,

does anybody kno how to set the ssqv hard n soft settings?

cos there was heaps of hissin noise under d bonnet n thought it was set too soft ppl say vacuum leak or sumthing, so thought i'd give it a go.

now its gettin really confusing and i can't even get it to sound like it did be4. i turn the screw clockwise go for a drive thinking its harder setting, then go back turn it the other way, and i can't tell the difference!!!!

now its just a flutter then the whistle then the normal pssht sound.

can someone tell me roughly which way and how much to turn to get it so it doesn't leak under vacuum and have dat long loud whitle metallic sound back?

thanks lot man.

I used to have a HKS SSQV on my r33 GTS-T. As far as im concerned that blow off valve when i had it never made a Psssht noise. The HKS makes the higher squeel and then flutters. I loved that sound then had to get it replaced to a stock BOV. "They" told me my car was over modified and i couldnt have it. The engine stalled when i pulled up to lights and went off. IM still trying to make a HKS BOV work on my car without it goin off.

    • RBF660 doesn't meet DOT5.1 as it is too thick. DOT5.1 has a very low viscosity requirement compared to DOT3 or 4. (Dot5.1 must be half as "thick" as DOT4)   It would also be a big indicator for anyone using that fluid in extremely cold weather to possibly look to swap for something in the DOT5.1 range.
    • Here is as close as we got to a direct comparison(3 vs 4inch exhaust), a tickle more boost, which I am sure was in part due to the exhaust.  Made 790 on more boost.

    • They work on really anything track related now. They do my mates r35 gtr and it's a weapon of a car.
    • I use the penrite 600f in my cars and have had no issues even at Townsville v8s when I drove that but I bled fluid end of day for just in case. Good value and a about 38-40 on sale. Use castrol srf on the supercars and no need to Bleed brakes over a race weekend. Do the 1000km with no issues. Over 120 a bottle I seen at repco. A quality brake pad is always a good starting point the ebc stuff I've seen let go after 2 sessions with heavier cars. I'd be going to a decent track pad and maybe those porsche air guides on the control arm to help with some air over the rotor. Helps on 86/brz with stock callipers.
