okay, maybe a stupid question, but can ppl record the sounds of their BOV and make a thread or something relating to bov sounds? that would be so kewl...would be like shopping for noise hehe, coz i must admit i want to get a bov soon, but it would be really kewl if i could hear them before i got it...like try before you buy style hehe...

Good idea!

you could just save your money, get a stainless Turbo to pod filter pipe made up, and a partition around the pod, and plump back your factory one.

Its a great power mod, and sounds awesome. You can hear my car a mile away, this loud sucking noise, followed by a really deep whooosh back through the pod.

**** the wank off valves.. :flamed:

stock one is already plumbed back, sure you have a nice heat shield and steel pipe but that is irrelevant

I think it sounds like that because he is using a thinkwall stainless pipe, so it make a lot more noise than the standard ones :rofl:

I personally like the sound which is like a high pressure blast of air going down a long metal pipe. "Choooooong~" like the BOV is halfway down a well :(

Heard it once on a VLT, said he was using the standard valves, but I bet he was using all metal pipes since he was a boilermaker and fabricated a lot of it

I've never used an aftermarket BOV but I personally like the stock plumbed BOV when using a pod, FMIC and lotsa boost!

Also ensures you pass inspections by the fuzz no worries. Trust me, people hear my BOV and know i'm coming when it's cranked up :rofl:

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?

      100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!

      ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
