Hey guys

I am buying a CC (greddy style/D1 etc - the square shaped ones) and I want to mount it like Hamish did

(http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/129549-oil-catch-can-mounting-and-roughting/page-2?hl=+oil). I will baffle it by putting stainless steel inside. I have 2 questions

1. does it matter where the stainless steel wool/stuff is placed inside the CC?

2. does the hose from the rocker cover have to go to a specific port/hose barb etc on the CC?

Thanks in advance guys

Amir

I have a catch can setup two cam cover hoses straight to catch can and the return back to original return on the turbo inlet. I have notice that i have have massive amount of condensation in my catch can clear water type that has a strong e85 smell i don't have any trace of water in my oil when checking the dip stick and noting to instigate that i have a gasket bypass issue Is this normal or do i need to get it checked out ?

Normal with e85, warm up tune can make a noticeable difference though. You want to get it in closed loop asap after cold start.

Hi Matt

Anyone you can recommend that i can go to that can do this tune? not sure if i can do it on mine as i am running a Nistune ECU

You need to post up your location in your profile if you want a tuner that is not thousands of miles away.

Running a single turbo on a rb26dett, anyone ever vented the crankcase through the rear turbo oil return. I was thinking about tying it together with the rocker cover breather hoses and then to a catch can and either going to atmosphere or running a hose back to the intake. to create some vacuum in the crankcase. What do you guys think? I'm just wondering if i'd be sucking oil up instead of just pressure.

Does anyone have any drawings or illustrations of what sort of baffling should be inside the catch can for a track setup?

Is it extensive?

A picture would be nice.

Stangely enough Google has heaps. Just Google "baffled catch can design"

I figured i would ask here, as being a GTR owner, getting real world GTR examples that work would be a start :)

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
