BOV leak? Induction sound help!!

Hi skyline aficionados.

 

I am fairly new in Aus and recently I bought a r33 s1 gtst rb25det.

About a week ago I was cruising around and a cop pulled me over, the usual story, drivers license, open the bonnet etc (ok, I wasn't cruising)

Everything was good until he gave me a yellow sticker, this was new to me, who would have thought that in Aus the cops are also mechanics..

 

Anyway, today I took the car to the pits and it failed because of missing mesh in IC, tyres with low tread a pod filter without permit and a blow off valve.

 

All of the above can be fixed quite easily with the exception of the blow off valve..

The engine is practically stock, just have aftermarket IC, the pod and the boost valve is bypassed, the blow off valve is stock.

 

The car does indeed have a massive induction noise, which is why the inspector complained..

I don't need to rev a lot to start hearing that induction sound and at some times (seems to be only in constant rpm) the sound seems to be slightly metallic, if I just push the throttle the sound keeps going up until I lift it and i ear normal turbo flutter, not the pigeon sound just the normal decompression.

Could this be the stock BOV leaking? a boost leak? the pod filter??

The only odd thing that I see is the boost valve bypass, its not the usual grounding the black wire and leave the hoses.

Instead I have the wastegate connected directly to the hose that comes from the turbo and goes to the IC, the top connector on the valve has nothing on it and the bottom one is connected to the intake (after the IC) will post some pics later.

Long story short I just want the noise gone otherwise i might as well ask for a job at the pits since i'll be there all the time.

 

Since this is my first post and I feel bad to ask without giving something I OCR'ed the entire R33 manual to make it search friendly (will make another post)

Thank you all

check to see if the bov has been blocked. People put a piece of tin at the bottom of the bov to block it and make it do pigeon noises. Replacing the pod filter with a factory airbox will also reduce any induction noise and flutter.

Get a boost gauge. Your boost may or may not be above normal - either way you need to know. And as above get a stock airbox - less noise, same power, less hassle..... and check your BOV

    • Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including. 
    • If it's for a SR20, make sure it's not the American Poncams, might as well call them Poocams. Had a set in a friend's car, all scuffed up after a few track days. Like the metallurgy Tomei USA used is junk. Went back to JDM OG Tomei Poncams, no issues till now.   Tomei USA is not the real OG Tomei.   Random rant over, fk the US of A, bunch of c u n t s. 
    • Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.     
    • Unfortunately, not only is that not the case, one of the main "Selling points" of safety over comms is they clearly state in writing that there's no need to segregate safety networks from non-safety networks. It always gets intermingled with everything else on an ICS/OT network.
