No worries RedDrifter, I misinterpret too.

pplo, looks like your diagram is correct. Thats how I would have it set up. Block the PCV & inlet to turbo. If your catchcan has 2 inlets, I'd run 2 hoses from either side of the cam cover instead of just 1 side in your diagram.

Cheers!

I want a catch can....where can u get a decent one for a decent price??

I saw a link to this somewhere on the forums before, and though 'hey - I can do that'.

Of course, I havn't yet... but I still want to.

Has anyone used something like described here? (air compressor filter)

I guess you'd want it bigger, but atleast you can see how much oil is in it, and it looks tidier and not as obvious (in my opinion) to a big stainless canistor.

I have also read (I think in that thread...been reading a lot) that you can/should run 2 catch cans? Is that right?

Cheers

Cheers pplo. Glad to be of some help.

eXc, thats a 'catch' that goes in line between your PCV on your cam cover and inlet manifold. It collects the oil that would otherwise end up in your intake manifold. You can also use it between the cam cover and turbo intake if the barbs are of the correct size.

Basically an 'inline catch can' like GReddy's design but smaller. You can't have these venting atmo.

I've got a Cusco catch can with a total of two inlet/outlets only. I guess that make it inline?? Can it be vented atmo?

If I vent it atmo will I need to place a filter on the remaining fitting?

Anyone with pics/diagrams showing a fitted catch can with only two fittings?

Cheers

U can have it either way.I had mine inline until I upgraded the turbo and intake.

its vented to atmo atm. I would use a filter as if the police see it not filtered u most likely will get defected.

As this is very illegal.

ok guys

just looking at installing my catch can.

for those who have done this, I wanted to know how u blocked off the PCV and turbo lines? just some screws? how about where the PCV line goes into the rocker cover...just some kind of plug??

I will need to go them anyway just wondeirng what every1 else has done.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
