Hi Guys,

Looking at reinstalling/re-configuring my cars carbon canister, yes i want to keep it don't laugh... I'm assuming it has been relocated due to a past FMIC. My car is pretty scruffy around the edges so it has a few fun little niggles (33 GTST).

It currently has a Mitsubishi(Assuming Magna canister in it...MR161732), it has one line going to the fuel tank vent hard line and one into the original T piece that goes to atmosphere and im assuming crank case?

Would it be worthwhile to find an oem one or can i make this one work. I cant even find a line from the intake to the canister and from searching im not sure id want to run boost pressure through this mitsu can.

 

Thanks for the input!

You could look at the workshop manuals for these cars that show exactly how these connections are done.

Also, don't be surprised by Mitsubishi made parts on a Nissan.  They don't just make whole cars.  The CASs and various other bits and bobs are variously Mitsubishi, Hitachi.

You don't have to.  They all pretty much work the same.  There's the connection to the tank, the connection to fresh air and the connection to the inlet manifold.  There's usually some control placed in the last of those, and the connection to fresh air is supposed to be filtered - ie the turbo inlet.

      Fuse taps are perfectly fine to use, especially when you're adding stuff for your own car, and so long as you're being smart about it. IE, don't throw a 30amp circuit, onto a circuit that is only a small circuit. It's best to add a small circuit, to one that is already quite large. Oh, and make sure you're not going to blow the fuses that are further upstream too! I dislike their use in other applications, such as alarms, telematics/tracking devices etc, as it's far too easy for someone to unplug them and render a system useless. Those sorts of devices I go for wiring in quite secretively.

      Given it is temporary, I bought a  cheapy gauge mount (which has become enflattened) which I will screw into the existing phone mount Also a first for me; given this is a temporary install I could not think of any reason not to use one of those "add a fuse" thingies to source the battery and IGN power. I had always figured they were pretty dodgy but having a good look at them I think they are a valid option for sourcing power from an existing source without cutting

      Finally for now, a bit more work on the transmission temp gauge. I was wondering how Raceworks do a gauge for $100 that autometer want $500 for. No idea about the accuracy of course, but they have cut a few corners that made things hard.  First one I mentioned above, the sender is physically difficult to fit and doesn't work with their own adapters (the extra fittings I used to get the sender into a hose cost more than the whole gauge, lucky I had stuff in the shed) Second, the temp sender wires are way too short. They are shown as 2.7m on the box and I know my routing was long from navigator headlight to driver's firewall back to centre console, but I had to lengthen them by about 2m total - 2 joins in each wire. Also, same with the supplied power loom, they needed about an extra 1m to get the fuse box where I sourced power. Another join in each wire since one end wasn't supplied terminated. I know they could argue that the wires might be long enough depending on situation, but when you consider parts and particularly labour, it would be a very expensive cheap gauge if you can't do the work yourself. And, only a small issue....but it would have been nice if they remembered to tap a tread onto *both* spacers they supplied for the bracket....I haven't had to use the M4 tap often!
