If you haven't found out yet, here is my reply to this.....

All I know is the R32, but that shouldn't matter in this case.

R32 has a Rubber cap that fits onto that position.... Maybe try a wreckers or something or make your own.

Slip it on and clamp it down!!:)

so piss the whole standard BOV off and place the rubber cap over the hole?

I thought it would need to be welded, coz with the pressure in there rubber cap aint gonna hold pressure

Well my BOV only has hose clamps holding it on with no probs, it holds 1.1bar OK and I don't think the R33s boost that high.

Pressure at that point is not going to be any greater than any other, so clamping the cap should not cause any problems.:)

if you want to remove the factory BOV that is simple. Remove it and put either an aluminum or metal plate with a gasket in its place. I was going to do that with the GTS-t I had because I had to go to a Trust type R. So we blocked off the factory bov vent hose with a broom handle clamped in place and removed the vaccume line and capped that off on the unit. I have a piece of aluminum plate sitting on my dressor but flicked the car off for my GTR before I finished the project off.
