R32 Gtr Bov's Recirculating Hoses Blocked Possibly?

[_Dee]

Hi, im a first time owner of a GTR, been lurking the forums for awhile, looking at builds etc but now i finally have my r32 gtr that ive always looked forward to owning. Ive been having a problem with the car stalling on deceleration to a stop here and there (started occuring 3 days after i owned it, drove fine before), ive looked into it on the forums about similar issues, and originally thought its due to having a atmospheric BOV but after having a look, it turns out mine was stock. So second conclusion i came to was it mustve been blocked off somewhere (probably at the BOV) to achieve the flutter.. or a more "whoosh" sound, so i woke up today and drove to my mates which is a 40min drive, to use his tools and try get to the bottom of it.... surprisingly drove fine the entire way there... and back. Anyways, so i assumed it wouldve been blocked off at the bov so jacked the car up, took the bumper off.... bolt under indicators was a PITA to get to, indicator didnt wanna budge, but after getting the bumper off and getting to the BOV i found out it wasnt blocked there, so decided to try follow some of the hoses back up, and next to the exhaust side i found 3 hoses that were blocked off with nuts.....(Prob was smarter if i had a look through the bay before i pulled bumper off but yeh..) I have a feeling it might be the hoses that recirculates the vented air back after the AFM and before the turbo but im not 100% sure so i took a photo and hopefully some1 here might be able to verify that that is the hose so i can sort this issue out.

Ive ordered few bits here and there for the car, waiting on them to arrive so wanted to figure out this problem asap so when everything gets here i can bring it to my mechanic and save some time. Ive attached 2 photos of the hoses that are blocked off and hopefully som1 wud be able to help me out and verify what they are? Sorry for noob question =P

It can be worrying when you first see that they connect to nothing with a bolt in the end. Don't worry.

You may also find plugs not connected, again don't panic.

These hoses have been blocked off on purpose. Likely by a mechanic and with a good reason.

Some you find wont have bolts and act as breathers.

Hopefully some one can name them for your from the pics.

Top pic appears on the ABS sides so I don't see how that can relate to the OEM bovs.

Charcoal cannisters etc... are normally blocked off.

You may also find a small number of hoses if you look for them on the plenum side. near the fuse box.

It's good to find the source and then label them with white pen. what they are for. (Eg: Diff or sump)

Especially if the engine's been built and/or aftermarket bolt ons.

Generally just needs the end to be raised pointing up to let gravity work.

@Sinista32 oh ok, cheers for that, i was hoping it would be related so i can conclude that it was those lines blocking the bov from recirculating the air back in. Ive read up on where its meant to circulate and its so far been mentioned after the AFM and before the turbos so where i found the hoses looks like it was roughly in that area, i think one of the hoses i saw i managed to trace it back to the intake so thats where my theory came from. Thanks for the input, appreciate it and the tip =) hopefully som1 would be able to clarify for me
