Rb20det Oil Catch Can Setup?

[ZRBE]

So that last pic, one of the hoses coming OFF the catch-can is plumbed into intake? Yeah?

[pipster11]

Yup. Catch can is between the the passenger side rocker cover and the intake pipe

[ZRBE]

Sorry just another question..

I'm going for the D1 spec catch can but not sure if I should go 9mm fittings or the 15mm fittings?

Going in an rb20det - 171kw

When buying a "catch can" make sure it has baffles in it as some are sold with nothing inside to "catch" the oil, and therefore you would be better leaving it "stock" as it would do nearly the same thing.

Catch cans being legal or not is basically up to the police officers discretion. So if are worried about it make sure it is plumbed back to the intake, therefore you can dispute the fact it is only inline with the original plumbing and therefore it is actually reducing pollution as it is catching the oil instead of burning it.

Also you could put it behind the front bumper, or make one to hide behind the stock air intake, there are a few options.

catchcans are perfectly legal as long as they dont vent to the atmo or bleed direct back to the sump

measure your rocker cover outlets and get the catch can closest to that (probably 15mm tho)

Sweet, appreciate this guys.. Anyone know of a decent brand with baffles, I know the D1 Spec DO NOT.

[pipster11]

you could probably make one up from a coke can and bung it in

not many come baffled

I would attempt my own.. But 1. I do not exactly know what a baffle is

2. Let alone how to dodgy one up

[ZRBE]

Steel wool in a stocking...?

[ZRBE]

Okay, I found 1 baffled oil catch can by mushimoto.. $350.. So stuff that

Going through a lot of forums and seems that stainless steel wool is the way to go?

[ZRBE]

Okay guys, I bought this catch can yesterday.

I have rung around f**king everywhere.

Autobarn, bursons, supercheap, buntings, Clark rubber and heaps of others..

NO ONE can find me a 15mm black hose for the catch can..

Let alone the 27mm hose I need to plumb my blow off valve back..

They can't even give me any references..

I really want to drive my car back home tonight!

Don't know. The Mackay guys were talking about some stuff from this place and then I saw that they do hoses so thought that it might help. Haven't used them so not sure.

[ZRBE]

I have called so many places its not even funny.. This sucks haha I want to drive my caaaaaar!! Got my opens 2 weeks ago lol

I should of planned a bit ahead... But wouldn't think it would be this hard to find a god damn hose! Haha

[t5iv]

Hehe. Rajab.

Have you tried Bursons? If you just ask them for a roll of 15mm hose or a 1m length they ca Usualy do it

Yes, called Bursons.. 15mm I'm not worried about. They have that there. But I can drive my car with out a catch can.

Sorry, I've changed the subject a little..

I need one for my BOV around 27mm inside diameter.. That won't f**king kink when I bend it 180 degree OR find one with a 180 bend already..

Already checked radiator hoses at a heap of shops all too big & too small, nothing that actually fits alright..

It's probably really common, I'm just speaking to the wrong places?
