This is according to the cacth can for sale thread a while a go that you show us to get it for $120!!!

Anyway really appriciate that, nice one too but now i have a little problem, i had mine fitted at BMT for 2 months now and i don't think it working. I inspec it this afternoon and the thing still as new as ever.

I then remember Mike ( the guy who sold it to me ) said something about there are a few hose need to be block not just the one that feed oil to the turbo alone.

Anychance if you could post some pics of your engine so i can see which needed to be block?

Thanks heaps.:P

Hey West, sorry about the late reply just did a 14 hour day not to mention the rest of the week...anyway the hose you need to block is between the rocker cover and intake plenum it is plumbed into the side of the rockercover and is about the same diameter as five cent coin. It is about level with the fuel pressure regulator and is 'S' shaped. You will find a valve were the hose connects to the rocker cover which needs to be blocked. A screw the same size as used for your speaker is a perfect fit. The valve closes when the engine is on boost so your catch can only is working when you have + pressure. Also idle will be upset untill the valve is blocked as the engine can suck air through this hose and through the catch can filter without the airflow meter seeing it.....which upsets your mixtures.

Yes. That's the one. The one on top of the rocker cover that feed oil into the turbo.

Anyway that S shape hose is the only one that you need to block? The hose that i was talking about is the one on top of the rocker that goes down to right side of the engine ( when you stood in front of the car ).

Thanks.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.

      Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
