shire350Z Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Been looking through so many and asking so many people there advise (thanks guys) and price and still cant decide!!! So found a local fabricator who will built me one!! I know its only a small 'thing' but strugling now on other ideas off things to do in my engine bay so having the catch can and all the hoses visable in the engine bay braided!! Just cant decided wether to go for a cylindrical one sitting next to the heatshield like 'ians' cusco one or wether to go for something very different and have a cylindrical one mounted on front of the carbon fibre engine cover running the full lenght of it (which will make quite an impression) just ideas at the moment!!! Also the fabricator thought it would need a breather outlet on it but most iv seen havent got one does this mean it woudl be fine without one??!! So people's advice and pictures off theres would be good It would be possible for me to get other people catch cans, coolant tanks, power steering tanks, washer tanks made up to there spec to pm if anyones interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muddy Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 What kind of turn around can your guy make one in James? I'm on the look out for one, but there doesn't seem to be any decent ones available - in a short time frame... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have commissioned some envy ones too as most of these are ridiculously expensive Any pictures and prices off them chilli!!!! not sure craig at the moment think he's quite busy as building alot for tracks cars right now!!! does any know where the extra hose from the ARC ones feeds? also ians hoses seem to go under the back of the engine cover but cant see where the ARC and marks feeds or is this just me?! one other thing iv seen some with breathers on the top and others with out !!! So are these not necessary as you only tapping into a hose that doesnt have one as standard ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilli Red Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 No Pictures yet, but they are going to be really nice and at a sensible price too. Will take a while but going to be worth the wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkie34 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I would follow the ARC lines if possible.I have been thinking about taking the plunge myself,but cant bring myself round to buy it yet. Dont know if you have seen this pic James. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shire350Z Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 thinking about having one simliar to the ARC one or a full cylindrical one on its side, mounted on the engine bay cover just cant decide!!!! also trying to find out why the ARC one has three feeds and all the others have two! going to have to make a template to see what size i can fit in there as its quite tight!

shire350Z Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 i might just have mine as a one off though you can have whatever size you want or style wont be that cheap but'll it'l be custom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Anyone knwo where the 3rd pipe feeds?! have you got the picture of yours tim?! Probably from the intake pipework I think it comes from the right hand crankcase. Somebody with more technical knowledge may be able to confirm or deny though. No need for a crankcase breather as most people with 350Z's keep a closed loop, not sure what effects this engine has on venting it too atmosphere.

(I did this on the Subaru) tru mate suppose you could as many feeds in as you wanted!!! no i dont think its needs a breather filter as it breathes through the air filter !!!
