R33 BOV Fitment

[meddler]

Guys,

I know this is a little strange, but are the mountings for a R33 Skyline Blow Off Valve the same as the S15?

The reason I ask, is that my mate has an R33 which he is selling. I am trying to pilfer as many bits as I can off it before he does. He has a nice turbosmart plumback BOV fitted in the factory position and if it will fit mine, I will make him an offer.

thanks.

If it has the R33 flange adapter fitted to it then no. If it has a pipe that THEN fits to the R33 flange then yes, as long as you dont mind fettling it to fit yours.

I think it has the flange that fits directly to the BOV, but from the turbosmart site, there are different adapters. Maybe I can just buy the right adapter. I think I will have to have a closer look at it.

Now I just have to work out if his 19" wheels fit too

 

[Matt_S]

Yeh, see if the 19s fit. And while youre at it, try his medallion for size too :wack:

If you want it to fit in the stock position you will need to get the adaptor.

What size and offset are the 19's Chris

What's your medallion like?

Hey Phil,

I think they are 19"x8" Not sure on the offset. Will have to trial fit them. Then it depends on the price

 

[Matt_S]

My medallion? Nah mate, I sold it to a 300ZX owner :wack:

Thats probably the best way, usually with Skylines they have a lower offset and end up touching the guards on the S15. 8" is not to bad a width for the S15 if the offset is low.

Have to catch up Chris when I get my car back, got new rims Works VS-TX.

Wev'e got a track day coming up in May have a think about it.

 

[meddler]

Yeah, absolutely.

Where is the track day?
