On the topic of catch cans, I have heard good and bad things about them. Some people recon that the vapor helps to keep things lubricated. Where if u put the catchcan in it will take that away. Dunno tho, what are peoples thoughts on this

Speaking of which.

I keep seeing a white Lambo out the front of my work, Asian student gets out each time and goes into the student accomodation block across the road... lol.

I see AMGs and all sorts of other thumping cars and sometimes with P plates on them

It's seriously taking the piss @ reality.

That Asian student is my cousin.

Hopefully this asian dude has no appreciation of money :)

Other dude around here about 21 or so drives a late model lambo... His dad owns viking transport

His dad is my uncle, so yeah that's my cousin too bro.

Spacers are cheating, like a push up bra really

That is great!

LOL. I know. It was only 5mm though. Most people would say I was being anal, but knowing my rears were tucked in by 2mm just did my head in.

Really, so having the pipe work 10cm in, 10cm out. With for instance 100cubic mm of surface area for the oil to come in contact with. That is going to

perform the same duty as 45cm in and 45 cm out with 450cubic mm of surface area for the oil to come in contact with? Surly the more you can

break down the vapor the better?

but yeh maybe he is right, the air may not 'slow' down as such.

after 30 odd track days my can only has residue inside it and the intake pipe is clean.

yeah maybe this is one for mythbusters cause your idea is definately plausable and works well for you ..

I would love to see that pirate.gif

Either way there are a million different ways it could be done.

eeerrrrr yeh wat thinking more like keeps the butterflys lubed not your wang

Negated by the fact the oil vapor is effectively lowing your octane ratting, thus causing or leaving you open to knock.

but isnt some blowby normal?? dunno guys im just saying i've heard arguments for and against have have nfi. I dont run a catch can atm, my cars not really modified to the point where I would need one.

Even better, tell him to do some good prices on the stuff for me.

Is that how you know Jess?

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
