i dont really matter bro, lol Why u get a auto one.... lol

Mate it depends what time of BOV u put on. i recently slaped on a Apexi dule champer BOV it make a "flutter" at low reves and a "woosh" at high revs. it sounds mad. But wit an auto, u'll hear the sould when it changes gears automaticly. it should still sound good. have u heard some of the auto VL turbo.. sounds mean.. but they have a dose pipe :)

take it eazy boss

^^^^ Wow that post really sums it up. Installing an after market blow off valve into a car which already has a perfectly good factory one will lose you about 800 IQ points instantly.

Furthermore you will not hear any sound on gear change (in an auto) unless you're lifting off the accelerator at the exact same time the gearbox changes irrespective of what blow off valve you have.

I got a blitz, same thing nice flutter in low revs, and fair loud pssch when opened up. Changed to a bigger turbo (kicks at 4000 instead of 2800) lost that noise now. :)

I bought my car with it on, probaly wouldn't have bothered otherwise, I like the sound of just cooler but if you like it buy. Personaly I wouldn't bother with a auto especially if it's standard.

My factory BOV was leakin.. that why it was changed to a better flowing BOV, i donno about ur V-spec bro,, but yea. the release of air that come out of the BOV is only when u take ur foot of the throttle, sorry for the misunderstanding...

Hmmm, I dunno. the stock BOV in the car only ever sounds when i take my foot of the gas, i cant hear it at all when it changes gear. so if i changed it, wouldnt i only be hearing it when the foot of flooring it?

Yeah, i bought the tiptronic auto becuasse i didnt really wanna spend another 10 grand for the manual...

Im already thinking about changing to a r33 GTR instead.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
