Aftermarket rad and oil catch can
Is it really worth it to get an aftermarket rad fan. I was looking at this mishimoto one for 80$

Catch can is needed when you have a built engine or turbo. Otherwise the stock pcv system is good enough.
For rads, why would you want to upgrade? Is yours bad? If not then don't bother. I got myself a brand new stock rad and whether I'm booting the car or stuck in stop and go traffic on a hot day, temp stays put. As long as you have clean coolant, good rad cap and good thermostat, you will not have any problems with the stock setup. |
Shweeet info.
Im ordering the catch can tomorrow, thats if optionJDM has them. check ur pm martin |
dont fix something that isnt broken lol. and a catch can is a nice thing to add. a bit overkill, but does keep oil vapours from being sent into the intake and combusted. more just bling if you ask me, i'd just make my own.
|
make one for me. 50$. they are 50$ on ebay for MFactory.
|
lol all you need is 2 1/4" brass fittings, a metal can (those hard water bottle ones work and they come in colours lol) and some rubber hose. pretty much it.
here lol www.aaronreedbaker.com DIY oil catch can |
why did he make a valve on the bottom, you dont need it.
|
Yeah I saw, ill send it in few days.
Also I really don't see a point of a catch can on stock setup. Nor paying this much money. Can get cheaper ones of ebay, or even make your own out of a metal water canister and few fittings. Also when you put it on, you will notice that the blowby is very minimal. Also you must understand for it to be functional one of the best ways is to drill into the valve cover but not go through the baffle and tap in or weld in bungs. And tbh after all that work you'll see that the can stays pretty much empty with few oil specs here and there. Really not worth it. But that's just my point of view. |
umm yes, to drain the oil that build up in there lol. its a "catch" can, it collects junk that needs t be emptied, and that allows you to do so without taking it out of the car.

but think about it. opening on top, you need to turn it upside downto drain it, meaning you have to unbolt it.
|
its an easy install too. 1. mount the can to wherever it fits. 2.run one hose from the can to the intake mani. 3. run another hose from the can to the pcv valve located in the middle of the valve cover(refering to the b18b1)
so that hose that runs from the middle of the intake mani to the middle of the valve cover, simpaly replace them with the can hoses.

Lol just don't buy it. If you have a turbo setup, you will get a LOT more blowby...this would be just pointless. Save your money on other things.
|
you mean intake, not intake manifold.... anyway, yea just make it lol, it will be a fun lil task, and you can paint it and ---- and but a jdm decal on there hahahahaha.
|
Alright, you convinced me.
I have a problem guys, I spend money on pointless ---- for my integra. Ok since i cant get my engine installed until Spikes tattoo is healed(around 3 weeks), I have 150$ish to spend. WHAT SHOULD I BUY. help me out
