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..

um.. sure? lol.. well i dont mind if its not hooked up2 the sump.. the rest sounds ok tho.. :banana: def want it the best way.. i find it hard for a pic for an rb20 :D( its connecting up to a d1 catch can.. has 2 dash fittings at the top.. and a drain plug(currently closed off) ..

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..

haha aww sowie brother.. but u have an rb25 it just sliped my mind.. mine 100% plumbed back.. an legal ftw.. anyways heres a pic.. i made everything from scratch.. bought it all from bunnings rofl.. catch can made out of pvc sleeve and fittings ect.. baffled and stuffed with scourers ect.. and the hose.. and Hose clamps.. WOO sexy time.. mite go a 16mm hose dia.. an fittings wen i end up with a good lookin catch can ect :P

im about to install mine. yours looks nice and neat. but where did the second hose go?

or you only had 1 inlet/outlet

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

    • Yes, it will take a fair amount of solution but the sodium citrate + citric acid + detergent is cheap stuff. Use laundry detergent instead of dish soap if you want to reduce the bubbles, also you could just buy sodium citrate and add some citric acid to the mix until you get to a weakly acidic solution if you don't feel like dealing with all the bubbling generated by adding everything together. For a fuel tank you need quite a lot of distilled water but it's probably worth the effort.
    • Actually looks like a Nitrous setup now 😆
    • @robbo_rb180 I already have a NEO head on the shitbox 😎 Just needs beehive springs so I can rev it past the 8600 rpm limiter, then again pointless too, turbo is out of puff lol. Wen da gods let me win lotto eh?
    • Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm. 
    • My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
