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.

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 thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • 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.
