Just to be a little more specific here, you want to use the "catch can" as an oil/air seperator by plumbing inline with the exhaust cam cover and the return in the intake pipe.

A catch can catches oil, an oil/air separator has baffles etc and scrubs the oil from the air before returning the air back to the system.

A "catch can" is generally used in an atmo breathing setup and is purely to "catch" any oil exiting the breathers.

Ok that all make sence guys cheers, I'm going to re plumb it 2moro, the only thing that concerns me is there is another outlet on the can near the bottom on the strut tower side, I guess I will just plug it up?

I've got it sussed, the "drainage hole" that simple tool pointed out is just a bolt, the outlet I'm refuring to is the drainage hole. I will be running the can packed with steel wool in-between the hose going to turbo and passenger side cam cover. I will also put a hose back on bridging the cam covers,

Correct???

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
