    Got the LED bullbar lights through my work, however can get them from Autobarn or Bursons.. They are made by a company called LED Autolamps and the part number is 175AW

    Well instead of buying a catch can being i like to build things i decided to make one haha.. Its made from PVC pipe with caps both ends and filled with Stainless metal Scourer's.. Copied the design from a another member of an un-named forum and aparently works well.. Time will see
    All up cost me about $50 and ill get 2 out of it as i will make another for my housemate TUR7LE

    Few Pics

    The Can


    All Plumbed up


    You can see the clear drain tube coming out the bottom


    The Drain Tube with a tap on the End, will eventually be plumbed back into the sump

    This will be a good exercise to compare between your home made and my provent
    but why would you want to put dirty oil back in the motor ? Ive had the provent for a while now
    and ive noticed the oil level dosnt drop in the motor but the mix of diesel and oil fumes that come from the rocker
    cover turn to a black oil which in turn will contaminate your nice new clean oil and you,l need to change
    earlier than you thought

    Yer thats a good point Roofy, ill see how it goes after a couple of thousand k's and decide then.. Might just leave it as it is for now.
    Next ill be pulling the butterfly out of the Swirl valve and hopefully should help a little in the lower revs.. Then my intercooler as its leaking pretty bad now.. Time for a ASE upgrade lol

    Hey Fletch, tough looking wagon mate. Can you post up a pic of how you ran power to your roof rack lights? Ive just got my rack and am looking at how to do the same....
