R33 Charcoal Canister

[SAM916]

I recently had a bit of maintenance done on my stock '96 S2 R33, to discover that the orginal charcoal canister had been replaced for compliance purposes, however whether it is the canister they used or the way they did it, its not working the way it should, so based on the recommendation of my mechanic (really knows his stuff) he said to find a stock one again and i should be all good.

So my problem now is where to get one? As cheap as possible too, I can't imagine them being too expensive.

Thanx,

Sam

Sounds about right - I got mine through UAS (it was being serviced there), cant remember how much it was, but 80 sounds about right.

I've got my old one sitting around if you want it. I dont think mine really needed replacing, but we changed it just to rule it out when troubleshooting something. Im coming up the coast tonight so I can bring it if you want?

Well... yes that could explain my problems with it! Damn compliance people must have put the wrong one on!

Nah just chuck it mate. I've got no use for it - just takes up space here!
