By looking at the picture it looks like the original connector? I'm just thinking I need something to screw on to the car and also screw the dump valve on to?
Btw mate I love your car!! Same colour as mine! I want to get it resprayed it's a bit faded and would like a little kit to go on to make it stand out more
I have a greddy type S and did exactly what I've just said, I'll get a pic for you tonight when i get home sheppy wrote:actually, apologies, yeah the flange you have in the picture is fine, that's what i have too, so get the fitting kit I gave you the link to, the connect with a piece of pipe
The long and short of it is, buy the adapter in the link i posted sheppy wrote:Not the same valve but the flange on mine is identical to yours yeah, i have the universal adapter in the link, you join the 2 with a piece of pipe, unfortunately i started stripping my engine last night and forgot to get pics for you, in fact, scratch that, i can take a pic f the hotpipe tomorrow.
:') I want to get it cheap and just get it on my car, if you've got anything I could use? 
Your bov has a universal flange, if you can find a greddy flange that bolts to the mr2 then yeah you can do it that way too but the bother i had even finding greddy flanges it was easier just to do it the way i did. The only parts available i have are my turbo, downpipe and a gt4 chargecooler kit, the greddy bov will be going back on when i rebuild it sheppy wrote:Grrrr, 2 mins i'll go get some pics of mine!
😔 I can't get my head around this I just don't want to spend a lot of money getting the bov that cost me £40 on, (won an auction lol) so I need to get a universal flange on the bov and a univeral adaptor for the hot pipe? Just sounds like a lot of trouble :') can't I just get a bit of metal and cut a shape and drill a few wholes? 😂
(homemade) universal adapter on it, pipe is a bit short but it works, I had the one in the link on my rev2 and it's a bit longer.
get the adapter,it's by far the easiest solution sheppy wrote:just to add, you can't just use a flat piece of metal, the adapter has the same fitting as the stock mr2 valve, you need to take your rubber O-ring off the stock valve and put it on the adapter.
:') sorry I seem hell bent on it but that's the idea I have in my head and it seems easier and will cost less :') im a pain are i :/ it has one hole. 
(you can't see the other side in this pic) is identical to the stock mr2 bov. that's why it fits and the Nissan one won't.sheppy wrote:i am 100% because the one in your picture is for a Nissan.
this is the stock bov.
that wee metal adapter on the left
is there any adaptor that might fit? Something like this maybe? Just needs the be the right measurement to fit the hot piper right? 
the one I linked you to in my very first reply 
(alloy) welded on. you could give your stock valve to a fabricator (or make one if you have the skills) and get him to make you an adapter.sheppy wrote:yes there is an adapter that will fit.

you're trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, this is the easiest way to do it without having it

How did you make your homemade one? Was it easy? I'm just thinking of the cheapest option
the problem is getting it to seal, honestly man, your only real option is to spend the £62 I'm afraid, or wait on a used one coming up, I bought my last one off here for about £20.
