That's your recommendation to someone who lives in Melbourne? Really?

I am assuming the stock one is still there, I have seen many skylines with the stock charcoal canister looped into the aftermarket charcoal canister.

I was suggesting to remove that fugly compliance one and only run the stock one.

That massive one in the top pic, I've seen a few R33 with that looped back into the stock one. Mine was the same, took it off and just used the stock R33 OEM one.

The stock one sits bolt next to the LHS passenger headlight, has a small u shaped hose which connects to the fuel tank. THe other 2 goes to the plenum.

I didn't even open his pictures. I just assumed it was a shot of the factory location (glancing at the thumbnails). When did they start fitting those to incoming cars? As I said, I've never seen one, and I've been under the bonnets of hundreds of Skylines over the years.

Theres 2 Vac lines going nowhere in the second photo that look the right length? usually there are labels on the top. From memory vent goes to fuel tank vent, purge goes to throttle body (or IC side of plenum) boost feed and the other one goes to a plenum boost/vac feed. Those last 2 might be wrong way round but gives you some idea anyway.

Stock charcol canister is mounted at the front on a bracket with 2 bolts holding it to the crossbrace for the radiator (Top)

No idea, but every so often I see one. Especially fresh ones at dealers, I believe most people just rip them out, bin them and use the stock one.

Yep, mine had one. Was a sooper shonky job too. Was the first thing I ripped out. Who needs two charcoal canisters?

So I can rip out the one in the pic ( I.e the big black fugly one with the 3 hoses)Also i can't find the OEM canister at the front that u guys are talking about, could someone post up a pic of it and how to re direct all of the hoses into the that one so I can remove this black piece of shit!

Cheers guys!

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
