Performance Imports magazine has my -12 RB26 breathers in the GTR cover car this month! - issue 171.

There are good pics showing how they look with fittings attached.

I bought a set of these -12 fittings of a guy on here who didnt use his. Im having a lot of trouble installing them. Ive tried heating up the valve cover and freezing the fittings and having at them with a rubber mallet but they wont go it t all? Any tips?

you will need to press them in with a press..

A press should be a last resort. If you screw a blanking cap on the breather tightly (so as not to damage the breather when you hit it with a rubber mallet/hammer) and a couple of hits with a mallet should be enough to get it to fit. The edges of the beather are chamfered so it goes in nice and straight.

These are designed to be a tight fit so they will never leak any oil or come loose.
