Jimbo, I actually thought it was larger than 10mm for the bigger pipe diameter option.

Basically the Greddy unit is available to suit N/A or Turbocharged cars.

From memory, it was available with either 9mm or 15mm hose, the larger diameter being for use with turbo cars.

booritz:

check this page,

...down under the head gaskets and injectors, there's 2 types, the 500ml squarish one and the 1000ml round one.

since i'm a sceptical guy i thought i should go for the square one for 2 reasons.

1. i've seen the square one before and thinks it looks the money and

2. i dont trust something when it boasts more yet is cheaper than the lesser product.

you know what i'm saying...

ps.

i'm actually buying from Nengun as its cheaper and they support SAU, just using this page as it explains it better

Jimbo: I know the ones, I had a good look at both while I was in Japan.

I have only seen the squarer versions on sale here.

I just checked the Greddy offerings and I stand corrected, the round shape tanks have a 9 or 15mm option, the squarer tanks have a 6 or 10mm option.

Bare in mind the hose that comes with the kit in garbage and probably wont be enough for you anyway, as tosh said, UAS has some spring reinforced hose that perfect for such an application, or you could go the braided option which is considerably dearer.

I have the square one in my 33 gtst

It came with 15mm connection

The hose that comes with it is generally too short

I found to buy new hose, I could only get clear 16mm that is oil resistant.

When you use the 16mm hose the earl hose clamps that come with the kit will not fit. too small in diameter

So I end up buying s/steel braided 3/4 hose 6 feet long and 7-off speedflow hose clamps total cost was about $130

If you use 5/8 braided line which is the closest to 15mm to suit the oil catch can, it will not fit onto the pipes on the top of the engine, that is why I went for 3/4

there is 2 ways to plumb up the hose to the catch can

I decided to replace all the hoses on top of the engine so it all matched

I removed the metal tee piece of pipe from the exh cam cover and reused it.

I then got another 90 deg bend the same as the inlet cam cover from another engine and inserted it into the exh cam cover. I then joined the 2 cam covers together using the tee peice. Ran 1 pipe to the catch can, then ran 1 back to the inlet where the factory one originally joined.

I have attached a photo that will hopefully make it a bit clearer.

it is not the best picture, but it is the only one of got at the moment.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
