Tidy30 38 Report post Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) For our racecar we built I used the 1L Asahi can. It weighed 20g I think, did the job phenomenally. You can buy the 2L jugs. Super light and specifically stiff. The smaller proper lid would be easier too. Edited September 17, 2014 by tidyverty 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yng_750 247 Report post Posted September 17, 2014 1l aluminum drink bottles from supercheap. Like 12 dollars. Easy to modify lid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FRT 144 Report post Posted September 17, 2014 Good ideas team! Yes a ali drink bottle could work. I like the beer can one as I would get my thirst quenched at the same time!! I had my car scrutineered last time and was told that my home made 1L tin catch can was not acceptable and to "buy a proper one".( it is a 2 stroke oil tin). Gee, no pleasing some folk huh. Next meeting is Super Tourers in taupo so no doubt if checked they will roll their eyes and point fingers at anything home made. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2078 Report post Posted September 23, 2014 Hey Dave. I think I have a spare catch can around somewhere at home. You can get a kit from supercheap. http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/online-store/products/Calibre-Oil-Catch-Can-Polished-400c-CALOCT01.aspx?pid=155177#Cross Will have to have a good rummage for my one. Might be better to just grab a new one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted September 23, 2014 Can you wait until I get there to get the car scruitineered.. I just want to see the look on the guys face when he sees under the bonnet and all your Bunnings Motorsport accessories - Gotta admire your Kiwi ingenuity and love of plastic tubing though.
