Mine was fitted to the car when I got it.

 

It's located on the drivers side sidewall (inside the engine bay where the wing is)

 

You can just see it in the top left of the engine bay in this picture

I'd have to get some for you but it will be Wednesday before I can get some, as it's dark when I get up for work and the same when I get home.

 

Actually I could try and get some at lunchtine tomorrow.

If you could do thats great. So I can start install it.

You dont know where to buy hose that fits the bov?

And something to plug the other hole with.

yes i think so to. the diameter is 3cm.

Cant it be connected anyway in some way?

 

The stock hardpipe is 20mm so it would require some sort of reducer to fit. Not sure I've seen any in those sizes. Was this sold as a Supra replacement item?

ok. I bought it on ebay, and there it says it would fit supra and other cars.

Now I have to come up with a way to fit a hose or get a reducer.

I have the same BOV but I got the fitting kit as well, you might be able to get the fitting kit on its own, or if not you will need the weld on flange. A silicone hose with reducer could also work.

 

 

Ok, do you know what the fitting kit may cost or where to buy it? even do you know somewhere to buy silicone hose with reducer?

Looks like a universal one to me, there is no supra specific fitting kit by the looks of it, you will need to by a flange and weld to an intercooler pipe

 

ok, there is one who is selling this bov with a supra fitting kit here in Sweden, but he is way to expensive.

So I have to se if I can figure this out and come up with a setup =)

I dont have an fmic yet so have no pipes to weld it on yet, so have to find an other way to fit it.

The one on mine is just a flange like yours, then that blue hose attaches to it. Try Nic on here he can get anything Japanese so might be able to get some sort of fitting kit.

The BOV you have bought is a universal one, it is not designed to fit the Supra.

 

Greddy Japan no longer sell a specific BOV kit for the JZA80 Supra, see here:

GReddy USA still sell a kit for the JZA80 Supra, the same as on steb9780's car. They do not sell the fitment kits separately though.

I suppose you could buy a complete kit (either the GReddy from the states or I can supply other Supra specific branded BOV's if needed) and then sell the BOV that you have already bought on ebay again. Another option would be to buy an adapter and hardpipe and get the adapter welded onto the hard pipe. Or you could try welding the adapter pipe you have onto a hard pipe (although it is not designed to be used this way).
