Hello guys, i just bought my gtr in kuwait. i'd like to ask is there any blow off valves that fit in my gtr? and does it sound good?
thank you

not sure, will certainly sound cheap and nasty though.

HKS has the only ones i know of atm.

alot of people wont like blow off valves for the R35. Alot of fans of the car just are not into that. its more of an immature, or kid thing.

I used to have one on my Impreza afew years back until i realised it sounded daft and chavtastic!!

I would leave the standard ones on.........if they are good enough for Nissan they are good enough for me.

If you listen hard enough you can still hear the standard one's 'dump'....no dump/blow off valves for me though!!

with upgraded power to around 600hp and above you may want to upgrade them... but thats about it.

Its a very personal thing, if you like the woosh sound yourself then do it, at the end of the day its your car so who gives a monkeys what others think.

Chavtastic, I'd say.

I would imagine that the term "chavtastic" might not apply in Kuwait

to me it sound great, because there is a video on youtube where a GTR r35 had an hks blowoff. there is a kit from HKS called GT570 and it has a blow off valves. could anyone help me what is the name of that blowoff . does it give any benifit? or just sound?

they change them out for the sound and the fact they are adding around 600hp to the car.

they installed it here:
