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?

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:

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.

      Infiniti Q60 Navigation Update

      Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
