This is the current setup for my catch can which I did not do, have been freshening up everything I am now up to redoing the catch can setup and this doesn’t seem right (pipe from turbo intake???)

Don’t have any of the standard pipes on the hot side any more just what you see

Pic is of my actual engine bay

 

I no it’s been talked about before

But can’t seem to find any real help to my application if it’s right or not

Just want to no how to setup properly with what I have

Any help greatly appreciated

Cheers

No just straight through into can
Why would it have pipe from turbo inlet ? Suck it straight through into turbo I would have thought
The ally catch can I have has no steel wool or anything just a can with drain plug
Have a new can on the way with steel wool filter thing
Want to setup the pipes right

The way it is set up is broadly the same as the NIsmo can if that makes you feel any better.

You put a restrictor in it so the turbo doesnt hoover the guts out of your can and taking the oil with it.

Dont use steel wool, use a sintered brass item as per mishimoto.

Routing as stated looks fine.

Catch can/oil separator system is more than some steel wool.

You really need some baffles in it, or a cyclonic effect to strip the oil out of the air, maybe fuel foam, but, whatever the design, make sure you can service/replace the "steel wool" or fuel foam, ALSO, steel wool can break down and end up on your intake, and fuel foam gets clogged with gunk.

Baffles/fuel foam in the cam covers help, ?Mines???

Ok great thnx guys good to hear setup was sort of ok to start with
Except no baffle
This is the kit I have on the way
This should do the job then yeah? Twin filter/baffle
Any other recommendations??

Yeah ok then, it is a street car
I can just put 2 bungs in so it’s not vta
So non vta should be legal ?
Even though it’s running a screamer pipe [emoji108]
(They haven’t found that yet) would rather it be legal, easy to see the catch can and never had an issue with current setup with them

Too small. Don't need breathers. As above read the oil control thread if you have a problem (maybe start half way through):

What about the JustJap style cans?

Retain window washer and it fits perfectly:

I'm not personally sure mate. But the JJ boys have always been very helpful to me, I bet if you call them they'll help you out.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
