thanks mick i just removed the "holden" in the mill, and then added the nismo after it got sand blasted and powder coated. i think it looks sweet, and its different to everyones "holden" rocker covers! the only thing i did wrong was i tigged -6 fittings on, when i should i have used -8. but i plan to dill out the -6 fittings a bit to promote a bit more flow. regards mark Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

possibly ripped it off a rice box - lol j/k looks mad dude, bout gettin rid of the holden, didn't u have to sorta' dig' or 'grind' it away, coz from memory it's part of the metal of the actual rocker cover. got the nissan thing happenin, instead of paintin my holden one, gonna get nissan one $24 at wrecker. screw holden, go NISSAN! chris.

-8 is a must if you give the motor a hard time for long periods. if the filter / breather on the catch can gets wet with oil it just keeps pumping oil out more and more. I have 2 x -8 into a baffled can and a -8 return into the sump. I just made a PowerSteer tank as well as I blew the std ones tits off 4 weeks ago during a race, -8 into pump and -6 from rack.
