370z ARC Coolant & Oil Catch can installation

octet

I had some OEM looking hoses made up and routed it this way:

Hi team
I received mine from Japan with the install documentation and it is not the correct design.

If some are interested I can scan the 4 pages (it is in Japanese but pictures are clear enough)


I have a concern about this oil catch can : it has been designed based on 2009 model. On the last model (after 2012 if I'm correct), Nissan added a third port on the reserve tank which is connected to the driver side water pipe (label C on the picture).


I could install the ARC catch can with the previous routing hoses (2009) and put a plug on the >2012 hose but do you think it could "pop" like a champagne bottle ?

It should fit just bolt-on. Never heard of issues with this tank from anybody. Mine was installed easily, without single custom modifications
Did you try to fit ?

Sorry there is a misunderstanding (wrong translation on my side).
The catch can is the good one, no issue with it.
I was just saying the hoses routing described on the previous post is not the one detailed in the installation guide.


Do you have a <2012 or >2012 Z ?

Morfiy

No problem at all! I have 2010, but there’s no difference between them under hood.
Make sure to change the supplied hoses with some braided ones or oem looking, to match both an appearance and ruggedness

Looking forward to using this install guide for my soon to arrive Arc combo tank

Yes there is. 2012+ models have a pressurized coolant overflow tank. That's why he was asking about the vent tube (2009-2011 models do not have one).
