Not if you have a Z with the ASR as mentioned but maybe if your creative.... I placed mine down there because
1. Oil drains down hill.
2. I didn't want to see them.

Does the air flow go from the back of the plenum to the front where the throttle body is or vice versa?

Back to Front (from PCV valves to Plenum Vacuum) where the Throttle Body is.......

The Intake on the Oil Catch Can is on the top and the Exhaust is on the side.



This Purge Connection is on a 91' having the Charcoal Canister
on the passenger side behind the rear tire. The 90' Purge
Connection comes straight out and is connected to the Charcoal
Canister located under the drivers side Headlight.

Don't know who this photo belongs to but this is another great spot to install a catch can.

I want a catch can now. How much oil are you guys getting over any amount of time ? I think my dipstick isn't sitting properly on the tube because it feels loose and I'm wondering if it may be affecting the System.

I have had my catch can installed with under 1000 miles on it and have accumulated about half a cup of oil.

These are mainly daily driving miles, with the occasional wot run here and there.

Wow that's quite a bit! Any reccomendations on a can ? Would like a black one if possible to keep it hidden.

I think you can get it in black. The oil is now visible so its adding up!

You can look on Ebay for more options.
