Hey all,

I'm after some speedflow fittings for my 25 Neo, either the usual anodized blue/red or just gloss black. However, I'm not sure exactly what I need. Go Gear are way too expensive and weren't much help, while Enzed had no idea what I wanted strangely enough. As I understand it, I need the weld in female fittings to go into the rocker cover, and then I need 90 degree barbed hose end fittings to suit 5/8th push on hose. But looking at an Earls catalogue or similar, I dont know which ones to order.

Is anyone able to give me an exact part number or point me in the right direction?

Any help appreciated,

Cheers,

Martin.

If I need something last minute I go to Couplers in Malaga, if I'm prepared to wait I order from the likes of summitracing.com :thumbsup:

Just be aware the fittings are huge, you should be fine with the 25 but with the 30 I couldn't shut the bonnet so just went back to stock fittings with pushlock hose.

Yeh? Surely that's just because of the 30, lots of guys use these fittings? Not too mention the 33 RB25's have the standard breather that goes vertically up :/

Will check out summit racing as well, cheers bubba :) speedflow.com had the right stuff, I just don't know which ones I need :unsure:

somewhat related question, does the size of the blow-by hose matter?

I've noticed most catch cans have a fitting about half the size of the stock fittings?

Can it suffocate the engine or anything with small hoses/fittings?

I have heard of drive-ability problems caused by having too small/too large breathers, but I never had any problems when I was using my old D1 Spec 'catch-can' (as if it ever caught anything).

Am using a Pro Fabrications unit now, Brad installed 5/8th fittings on it on my request. For anyone interested, I found the fittings I need through speedflowdirect.com. Earls part numbers are 403-10 for the 90 deg, and 999-10-D for the weld in. Helpful blokes there, and much better prices than my local Pirtek or Earls thumbsup.gif

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
