They are good enough for some of the fastest time attack GTR's in Japan so im sure you would't have a problem.

if its good enough for the japs then it cant be inadequate - funny though i spoke to another shop about this & they told me clearly that they are simply not as good as the remote type (like what u have on your 33 nick)

on top of all this, the shop im referring to only stocks this top mount style so go figure...

The best would be whatever fits the spot you want to put it and works out the cheapest.

There are plenty of generic cans out there for under $100 and they all do the same job.

Personally, i'd get one of the trust copy (drift branded) square cans, take the lid off and add some baffling made from alloy sheet you buy from bunnings, and it will perform as well as any other can you can buy. They have a rubber seal so it's not an issue to take the lid off and replace it.

Unless your car blows all it's oil out of the breathers obviously, then you may want to look for something with a bit more capacity....

I grabbed a beautiful custom alloy one from Racepace in Melbourne for my R33 GTR... It was a catch can and washer bottle in one unit for about $350.

I'm going to see if they make a similar one for the R32 GTR :)

i have one of those greddy ones, autobahn sold it for $90 to me. A mate got one from autobahn down south and he paid $50 on sale!!!! go hit them up for their BEST PRICE if you want a greddy one... problem is no baffles inside and cant open it, i am yet to install mine, gotta take it to work and drill a hole and weld a plug at bottom to put some baffles in.

Here is another worth mentioning, now available at Just Jap.

If I didn't already have a CRD custom tank, I would try one of these:

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
