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,

http://www.greenline.jp/catalogue/bcpartli...ntake=FI#engine

...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.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.

      In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).

      ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.

      OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
