SupraJames Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 this is the kit I got http://www.greddy.com/products/display/?Category=turbo&SubCategory=18 scroll down it the one marked TOY Supra TT, is the complete kit not the weld on flange type. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Killer Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 This BOV is a replacement for the stock and goes right there. I have not installed one but have installed an HKS and a Blitz. It does indeed go right where the stock one is without any issue. I asked Greddy if they had Englsih instructions and they said they would work on it and get back to me. Thanks, Dusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraJames Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 Sorry im being a total numpty here so have posted some pics and hopefull someone will be able to point me in the right direction. I am right in think the BOV is connected to the where the stock valve goes (connection closest to bulkhead) and the other end of capped off..? I am confused where the bracket (pic3) attachs to the car..?, just cant find where it goes, and if the BOV goes in the stock location it just seems to high for the bonnet to close..? Sorry for sounding completely dumb, just need some advice/help. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 The BOV wants to go to the port farthest from the bulkhead, and the port to the inlet capped off. If it's like the HKS SSQV, the bracket will go to the nut on #1 turbo inlet, shown just below the port on your picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyb10supra Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Right A needs to be capped, my kit came with a little rubber cap type thing!! There is a little peice of thin pipe that comes with the BOV that needs to be attached to the top of your BOV and the pipe shown (B) The part labelled C is where the Fat pipe goes and the other end should be joined to your BOV Et Voila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyb10supra Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Cheers jake I needed that, the computer was close to going out the window Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 No worries. I think the problem was because the image was called bov.jpg and the forum software is set to parse (is that the right word?) words like "bov" into those annoying hyperlink things.

SupraJames Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 Ok had another look and looks like it does not mount like the hks bov, still cant seem to see where the bracket bolts onto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I never bothered with a bracket in the end, seemed to sit snug in the gap, but upto you?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraJames Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 Got in on and working (in a different location) its not very loud lol and makes me induction kit make a funny wherring noise which I can only guess as being the MAF not liking the BOV..! Maybe should have gone for the HKS one after all..! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How bizzare/poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
