1. Modify your new inlet to be able to take the ventilation hose (and this has to be done BEFORE the afm)

no, you want it after the afm (which is where it is stock) so your afm doesn't get covered in oil.

whatever you do don't block the ventilation pipe. if you do you will just blow your pcv out the moment you boost it. the pcv only works under vaccum. just put a breather on it for now ,then either get a catch can or plum it back into the intake pipe.

thats what i meant, in betweem the turbo and the afm, i was just picturing it my head and if i saw the pod, afm, hose then turbo in a straight line i would say before the afm but thats just me lol.

But like i said i meant in between the inlet of the turbo and afm...

i've picked up an oil breather for now, i planned on getting a catch can in the near future, so is it wise to get a catch can with an oil breather on it or is it pretty imperative that the air come from the intake pipe and i get an inlet welded in?

next time, buy a 1m vacum hose of the right diameter and run it from the top of the cam cover where the other end connects to, and have the other dangle under the car somewhere or on a cable tie. all that comes out is oily air, not really oil flow type oil.

you will notice no performance difference, just an odour all the time until you fix properly. make sure not to have it in front of a tyre or on the exhaust and your set.

*TEMPORARY* you wont hurt the motor but will not be helping the environment.

you will not have to change oil more frequently, as the tiny bit of oil in this pipe was about to be burnt up with your petrol anyway. racecars dont want motor oil in their petrol because it produces inconsistent octane leading to detonation. if there is a lot of oil coming out, you have much bigger problems than a missing inlet pipe.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
