Mishimoto Build Thread: BRZ/FR-S Direct Fit Baffled Catch Can Kit!

[ck-GT86]

Looks like it'll clear most strut bars too, I like it

I am looking forward to the final result.

I have bought one of these small catch cans for your Australian Distributer Prospeedracing. To save me from fabricating a bracket, will you sell the bracket for the PCV placed can?

Yes, it should clear most (if not all) offerings on the market!

Sending you a PM regarding this shortly! Thank you.

Product looks good!

One thing I couldn't help but notice why are you using the cheap $3 Fram oil filter?? Its not even their top tier filter

I have heard nothing but terrible things and there are tons of YouTube videos of peopl cutting them open and other test one shows the inside pleats not even connected...

Just curious seems really cheap to be used on such a nice new car jm2

nice. keep us updated

I would love to see a forced induction version. Possibly using a single 3-port version of the can. What are the two t-connectors on the valve cover line going to?

Wouldn't the two cans be sufficient for FI applications?

Most forced induction setups don't have in intake port. So it would only have a manifold port to attach to the the "out" of the can/s. This would require only 1 - three port cans, instead of 2 - two ports. This is my assumption. I want to see their take on the setup.

They just suggest buying 2 catch cans, as explained throughout this build thread. It also said the two lines cannot go into one can due to pressure differences (would have to be two isolated tanks in one body, so the size would increase in this case.)

I understand and agree with all of this for a NA car. I was talking about possible setups in forced induction, specifically one where you loose one of the vacuum lines. The pressure problems become a new animal, with check valves and the like. I am not trying to say how to do it.

Mishimoto, this looks pretty solid but the routing and hose colors leave a bit to be desired. Please offer black lines of the smallest size that will work. It looks very busy right now. The cans look pretty sano, I agree with the smaller the better (colored CAN options are cool but present inventory challenges).


Just my .02

Thanks for taking a look! Not sure why our test vehicle owner is using this particular filter, we can certainly ask him the next time he is in the office. I would personally prefer the factory filter, however Fram has been in the filter business for quite some time, I doubt they would release a sub-par product.

This setup is certainly applicable to a vehicle with forced induction. Similar to our WRX FA20DIT kit, we would still recommend using the dual 2-port can system.

The t-connectors are actually just straight barbed fittings. The lines in the images are the mock-up units we used to achieve the correct bends and routing for our final version. The final product will be a single piece hose in either black, blue, or red.

Thanks for the inquiry and feedback!

Correct, a dual can system is highly recommended for both NA and forced induction vehicles.

Thanks! The hoses you see in place are mock up units to achieve the correct bends and route. Our final version hoses will be one-piece per port, and will be offered in red, blue or black.

Thanks for the feedback!

/sub I need a new catch can and this seems like my next unit!
