Rb20det Oil Catch Can Setup?

Recommended Posts

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.

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

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

Okay guys, I bought this catch can yesterday. post-105232-13850785381525_thumb.jpg

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!

Cheers for that man, don't suppose you know any places that will have those 1 inch hoses in stock..?

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.

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. :P

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?

    • 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? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
