these any good for the supra?
these any good for the supra?
I've got one on my single and REALLY didn't want to after having an older SSQV but the new one really is an improvement. I'm actually surprised how much I like it :)
is it still a gay sound
Not IMHO. It used to sound like a canary on coke but now sounds almost mechanical. A good "blow-off" sound in a high-tech sorta way. I'd record a video if my idle control valve wasn't fooked.

what sort of sound will you get out of this on a stock tt? just a simple woosh or that lovely fluttering sound
what sort of sound will you get out of this on a stock tt? just a simple woosh or that lovely fluttering sound
yea id like to know on this too please:)
can we pick what colour fin it comes with or is it a default one?
Ive just fitted one of these, it has standard fin in at the moment and makes quite a high pitch sound when you back off the throttle, in my case anyway as i have an auto. It certainly turns heads and i found it louder than i thought when you back off from full WOT. Just giving it half throttle its not as loud and sounds good. Would be even better on a 6sp as you get the sound when changing gear too.
Ive not got around to fitting the other purple fin yet but will this weekend and let you know what it sounds like in comparison, its supposed to sound more lower pitched than the stock fin, also will get a picture of it fitted.
They are a quality piece of kit and fit very well indeed! I also find the turbo spools up quicker now, well from what i can see looking at my boost guage anyway.
Quite surprised at that. Possible boost leak from your old recirc dump valve?

No dont think so, well its still boosts to the same level anyway so not sure, it could of course just be me as there is no real way of finding out for sure, it could be something to do with the ice cold weather.

It "shouldnt" be fitted without the extra recirculating attachment on a UK spec

Other member have said they dont have a problem, but totaly open to advice... where could i get an extra one tho...
It comes in the kit, a recirc fitting! Is that the one?

yes it is the one, but you would need peice of tubing which is bent at the right angle to go back to the intake (unless it comes with that) it doe sent mention it
If all paid for do you think there might be about for b4 xmas?

Yeh ure right just read the instructions it says it doesnt come with suction pipe fitting and return hose!
abit of flexi hose from halfords would do it tho right? would also add abit of blue bling...

Correct the Supra kit doesn't include the attachment so it can be recirculated. I'd need to check availability/cost of these if anyone needs.
So have we got a definite 10 members in now? If so I will start collecting money.
If you would like to order, my pay pal account is the same as the email address in my sig below, I will need you to add 4% (£6.60) to the total to cover the pay pal transfer fee. ie. total transfer amount of £171.60
If you make the transfer, please can you include a note of your forum user name and parts ordered for my reference.
If you would prefer to pay by bank transfer, please can you pm me for details.
cheers
If all paid for do you think there might be about for b4 xmas?
It'll most likely be after Christmas now, order time would be 4-5 weeks, plus 5-7 days postage to UK.
If anyone wants theirs quicker, I could get the kit airmailed to me in around 1 week, but would need an extra £24 to cover for the additional postage costs.
Nic, was wondering if that re-circulation option/insert for this BOV can sort out the problems UK autos seem to suffer as it would mimic the operation of a stock BOV?

Nic, I've just Paypal'd the money. hope everyone else is still in - or I'll have to find some other bits up to the same value;)
Sorry guys, I'm out of this one already, just a day late, just blown all my cash on a fuel system:(
So is this still going ahead then?
I can transfer the money over tonight if thats the case.
Scott =op
Fed up waiting,
Got mine off of ebay... cheaper.
Scott =op
Bloody load of Barstewards!!
I was in right from the start with this one but its going to take forever and a day at this rate with people pulling out etc.
Can't be bothered with the hassle. Wanted to get in on a group buy even though i could find it cheaper elsewhere but its not to be.
Least i will see mine this side of chrimbo.
Sorry folks

after christmas sounds better as im pending money getting my car on the road:)

Jazz - the 'after Christmas' thing was delivery as it will take about 7 weeks to get it now, assuming everyone paid up. I've paid, but now people are dropping out (which seems to happen rather a lot)
i have no objection in paying the problem is i booked my car with tdi and my outgoings next month are over 1k as im having an alarm fitted etc but i also get paid before christmas
im out just found it cheaper
Guys I gave you the delivered price and the order time on the very first post. It is very unfair on the others on the group buy to pull out at the last minute, especially jaymdee who has already sent payment.
Price and delivery time wasn't an issue.
2 weeks ago when it was posted.
Too much faffing around for me. The lower price just clinched it for me is all.
Scott =op
Sorry going to have to pass on this as well then. Didnt think it would take 4-5weeks for delivery, was looking for more of a pre xmas prezzie for my self. sorry

I try to be a "man of my word" - I'm still in unless you tell me it's not going to happen - if so, no problem Nic.
It may be that some of the Newbies think you live in Hong Kong, just outside Watford :D
Keep us posted...
Cheers

Thanks Guys for your commitment, it's disappointing others have decided to pull.
What I'll do is go ahead with the orders as I get the money in, if we get 10 orders great, if not then I'll take the hit on the cost price.
So all those that are still in please make transfers and I'll place your orders as and when money is received.

I thought I'd made it clear on my first post of the timing of the order.

Hi Rob
The recirculation kit is designed to be used on cars with MAF sensors for this very reason.

I have looked into the alternative sources and yes it looks like a a few quid can be saved. Perhaps those who have sourced elsewhere could be honest enough to post up the actual total cost when they receive the goods at the front door.
Nic has a very good rep among club members and perhaps the few extra £'s is worth it for Nics continued commitment to the club. Just do a quick search you will find his input into tech and other threads is huge. I am sure that is what the club needs; people who can make a contribution not just take our money.
In the end everyone has the right to make their own choice as to whom they handout their hard earned.......
Sorry to hijack the thread Nic.

Good price, but looking at some of the feedback, you may find a £20 customs hit on top of that

i was ok when i ordered from them a while back
I've been ok in the past but its always a risk. Nic's are coming from the east too so the same risk there.
Unless the value on the front is marked different, no insurance then though.

You've took the hit on the cost and paid more for the items to be air-mailed, as always you're a top guy. :thumbs:

Arrived today :) Looks a good quality unit. Seems to have a purple fin fitted too (assuming the purple cone thing I can see is the fin insert) - EDIT don't think this is the fin, just a purple couloured part to fool me - damn!
Many thanks Nic - shame my car is parked up at work, won't be able to fit it until Friday :(
J
Glad it arrived safely Jon :thumbs:
The actual fin (the cross piece at the front) is chrome as standard, but the valve behind it is purple, which reflects off it.

anyone knows what the difference it between the new SQV and the ols SSQV BOV?
Just looks?
Will the new one hold the boost above 2 bar, or leak like the old one???
Neither of them should leak. They are both push pull are they not?
Differences are the looks, the old one is adjustable i don't think the new one is and the sound is much better on the new one.
I think thats about it really.

Yes, neither of them SHOULD ;)
But I know the old design DID when going 30PSI+.....and not only mine....
That´s why I asked.....
Ahh right, i don't think they are designed to handle that much boost though, are they? Is that not more for the HKS racing types? If you really want the ssqv's on there then go for 2 of them ;)

Yes, seems not. :(
I like the fact that they open on low boost, too.
But two of them will not handle more boost ;)
Blow off more air...yes, but withstand mor boost...no.
