by proper do u mean legal way or proper way for not having any crankcase vapour going back into your engine? proper legal way is to have it entering your catch can through on of the top outlets then back into before the turbo for the outher outlet. and the drain at the bottom should feed back to your sump so u don't have to ever worry about it getting full..

haven't got a pic of one for an rb20 but if u dont want any going back into your engine which is best for performance then u need to block off the one going to your inlet manifold first of all otherwise you'll get an air leak and won't run properly. then either drill some holes in the top of the catch can and feed the 2 outlets from your rocker covers into the 2 fittings. or somehow join the 2 outlets on the rocker cover so that they end up into one of the fittings on the catch can then stick a filter onto the other catch can fitting... hope this helps..

who cares how it looks like, its not a beauty contest.

It's one of the better ways to have a catchcan setup for the rb20.

Im sure you can colour-match the hoses to your neons so stress less :) /joke

It goes to the return on the intake pipe.

Probably better to set it up the other way... as far as i can gather anyway :S

    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models?
