Default Install Pics of Oil CatchCan..?

Just wondering if people with them can post a few pics of the catch cans~ perferrably the Greddy one! =) Also, if you have any ideas to where to install this thing... the engine bay is pretty tight with the Turbonetics ST. Should have just got the $250 ARC one that sits under the strutbar! LOL

Personally, can't use the ARC as the intercooler piping goes there. Would like to see a "perfect" install with a diagram.

I don't think this helps since you have the turbonetics kit, but here is where I have my greddy catch can.

no not an extra. a bracket was fabricated and it was mounted there instead of in one of the corners of the engine bay.

This location might work well on a 350Z too. This is the Greddy Oil Catch Can from Forged Internals.

So, neffster, where exactly did you route those lines to and from the oil catch can? Just curious, thanks.

looks like they're going thru that intake openning... does the length of the hoses matter?

Matt at CP Racing installed the catch can and he routed the hoses for me. We're having a meet tonight (heading to the track). I'll take some more photos of the lines, where they go to, etc...

I'll try to post back tomorrow but I'm kind of at the mercy of the guys who will be bringing the digital cameras.
