with the cam cover one.. put simply they fill up. real fast. so instead of a "steady" stream of oily fumes comining out, you get no oil coming out and when it fills up 2~3 laps all of a sudden you get masive surges of oil being pushed out and doing harm.

the second one is good but just not big enough.

ive had all sorts of issues with catchcans on the track. i ended up making my own one. it holds about 2 litres. and ive evan combined the power steering resovior with a breather so it to doesnt overe flow everywhere.

tested at wakie it worked a treat. no more engine oil over one guard and power steering over the other lol. il put up some pics soon.

I think I will have to make up a new/bigger power steering resivour aswell, I wondered why I had power steering fluid all over the place when I went to the sprints. :(

Could I please see pics of your setup T04GTR?

with plesure. soon as i find bluetooth on autobarn computer

damn that thing is huge nice work would be a full 2 litre's yeah.

And to think i couldn't find space for a dinky little one I really must not have tried hard enough.

How lows the mount, off the "chassis" rail and gotta ask where did you get the fittings from

Whats the smaller line at the top go to a standard can or something?for emptying?

yeah that was a quick fix at wakie to stop it overheating

the big ones are engine ones and the little one is for the power steering resovior.

fittings and hoses all ebay. you just gotta be patiant and wait for the rite lengths to pop up hehe,

ps.. all the black hoses weight less than 1kg with all fittings :wave:

    • Been a long time since r31 got some love, my brother dropped a shitbox ls1 crapadore in my lap to fix up.  Put a wiper motor in as the flooded one was no longer alive.  got windscreen wipers now. Time to clean respray and install back in the titanic  IMG_0505.mov
    • Nah its a server spammer thing  Although, now that I manually approve all the accounts I can probably loosen up some of the restrictions.  
    • Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)      
    • Thanks buddy. I thought it was a server storage thing. 🤣
