helloooo,

here is another debatable topic and a question thats has more than likely been asked before, I have a 1993 S1 R33 GTS that i have fitted the stock turbo kit from the GTS-T, the car has been fine for the last 6 months no issues, But now i wanna up the boost from the stock 5psi to around 10psi nothing crazy. My question is, the stock system runs a BOV and a internal waste together, now i have only been running the internal waste gate but i have just ordered a Greddy BOV and want to know if i can just run the BOV and not the waste gate (still leaving the actuator on there waste gate just not running the vacuum hose to it). going off what i understand it should be fine but is there anything im missing ????

BOV are used so when you change gear you dont back up your turbo and essentially keep it spooled when shifing, so why run a internal gate as well or is the gate just a fail safe so if the bov dosnt work you wont over boost your car?

Please, please, please, follow the advice about googling how/why a wastegate does what it does.

BOV and wastegate bear no relationship to each other except that you will find them both on a turbo car.

spend money on a proper diff...

Then again, 10 years ago I would have invested in a BOV (I actually did on my 1st car) - dumbest thing I ever did...

Don't talk sense. No one will listen with the BOV debate.

1. Learn how to construct sentences properly. It will help you in life.

2. You don't have basic understanding of how a turbocharged engine's components work together. This means you'll have to research them yourself in your time. No one here will school you in that, so have fun Googling.

3. Sell your after market blow-off valve and spend the money elsewhere (e.g. better tyres).

4. Look in the DIY section for grounding the standard boost solenoid.

OR, ignore everything I said and do whatever you want, because it's your money and your car.

      R32 GTR Bonnet Hinge Bolts

      By SteveL · Posted

      From my bolts, standard M8 with 1.25mm thread pitch (M8x1.25mm).    Length is 19mm under the head and has a captive 18mm OD flat washer.   20mm length from a bolt shop is what you'll be able to get.   Make sure they're zinc plated.    If you're concerned about strength, grade 8.8 will be more than enough. Original PN is 01121-04971.  Now discontinued according to Amayama but that's because it's one of the parts that's been captured by the Heritage program, which explains the ridiculous price.   New PN is 01121-RHR20: https://nismodirect.com/nismo-heritage-bolt-pin-hinge-hood-bnr32-nissan-skyline-gt-r-01121-rhr20-01121-04971/ About AUD33 converted from Yen in the above link but that's just one example. Interesting that the hinge-to-body bolts are still available non-heritage.....PN 08116-8161G around $2 each (amayama).    Same thread but 16mm long.

      ER34 RB25DE Auto - Would a flush ever fix an "A/T" light?

      Well, if that filter was impeding fluid flow, then it could have similar effects to faulty solenoids. The TCU will register a fault when it does something (ie, changes the state of a solenoid) and does not detect the required result. If there are other causes that can make the same lack of result, then they will be indistinguishable to the expected cause for which the TCU has a code.

      R34 RB20DE NEO coilpack?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yellowjackets, red ones, blue ones (other than Splitfire) have all been demonstrated to be unreliable on turbo engines. That unreliability can be anything from outright failure (ie, 4 out of a set of 6 working out of the box) to just not being strong enough for the task, on a boosted engine. Not enough of us care about NA engines to know whether that unreliability is an issue for the undemanding needs of an NA RB20. I should think though that the DIS-008 should fit the 20. There's not really any reason for the head/coil mounting area to be any different on those 2 Neos. I wouldn't be buying Splitfires, or any other old tech coilpack, for a car in this day and age though. I would buy modern pencil coils and do what needs to be done to adapt them to the loom. That's relatively trivial these days, with numerous kits for fitting R35, or Audi, or Yaris/Corolla coils.

      Keen to see how much work is needed to get an abandoned Skyline going. My R32 has been sitting idle for three years or so but finally got some time to get it going again. (Also lurking SAU and trying to hit 10 posts so I can start my own intro thread with pics)

      R34 RB20DE NEO coilpack?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Which coilpacks can i use in my engine? I looked at the Splitfire but the closest "match" i found was SP-DIS-008 but even that they do not show RB20DE NEO so iam not 100% sure. Or maybe different one which will 100% work? I saw many on ebay but they are some cheap "strange" ones. What about Yellow Jackets? Many thanks 🙂
