Oil Catch Can In A R32

[7yphon]

Hey can anybody give me pics on how they have there setup Im not sure about where I should start?

[ToF]

Do you mean setup as in where to connect the hoses or where to mount your catch can? Because at the moment I just bought a catch can and there is no where I can mount it properly in my engine bay. :s

this is how i did it in my r32 i have a greddy catch can i made my own 'bracket' out of this metal thingy that your guttering up works a treat and used to have it cliped around my battery but i have to turn it around and couldnt use the bracket dodgey! so i ended up shortening my 'bracket' and pot riveting it to the fuse box jigger above the battery as you can see ive followed sydneykids instructions and i have the full plumb back.

cheers.

ps sorry about the dodgey phone pics!

Makes the engine bay look very cluttered and ugly.

Cool Cheers I wasnt sure about what to do with the f**king thing

boj01 Even so but it saves oil going through your intake :S

Hey Also why do you have the pipes connected the the Turbo Still? Is this to keep Pressure ??

[gt-t_r34]

ahhh yeah to keep everything plumbed back so i dont need a filter suposedly if you block things off thats pressure and u need the filter but its all connect as if standard so its ok no extra pressure just running through the can

Ill have to give it a try my catch can and a cheap one like $50 from Jshop so not quite the same but I should be able to use your Ideas

[gt-t_r34]

Wicked setup... I have bought a "Drift" one from Autobarn cuz the 1 litre Greddy one wouldn't fit in my engine bay... D'oh... (however, this Drift one does have an oil level pipe on the side, so you can see how full it is) But I was scratching my head to plug up the "return pipes" but now I will do the same as this one... Thanks for the pictures, and just in time too

gt-t r34 - I'd recommend going and spending a little bit of money and grab some more hoses clamps... for saftey and security on all hose connections... unless you were recommended not to use these??

I dont quite understand what you are saying

Jshop Catch cans are like the Autobarn ones with the Level on the side

If you're referring to what I've said... I don't know the J-Shop ones, but that's good that they have the level on them... at least you know when to empty!! Also, the Autobarn "DRIFT" branded 500ml ones (upon closer inspection) look like Greddy 500ml knock-offs But meh, should be just as functional.

dont worry i was being stupid!

anyway as for those extra clamps i had cable ties on there coz i ran out of clamps but they must have cut them off when i got it serviced havent had any oil leak out and they are on there very tight ill just see how it goes!

[7yphon]
