    the factory catch can is more accurately described as an "oil-air separator".....

    i think with some added pics and cleaned up info this will be up in the FAQ

    Also:
    Gen 2 head flows a LOT worse than the gen3, due to terrible ports
    Gen 3 'MAY' have an extra tooth on the oil pump.

    Thanks to Tristan Hewitt for this info (if I've translated the barrage of information rightly)

    The Gen3 oil pump has one less tooth on the drive gear. This means the pump turns at a higher speed in relation to crank speed moving more oil.

    A suggestion, could you please remove all the references to the auxilary systems? and just concentrate on the engine?

    An excellent site comparing generation of engines
    http://gtfour.supras.org.nz/3sgte%20table.htm <- engine comparison
    http://gtfour.supras.org.nz/head%20variations.htm <- gen2 and gen3 head comparison
    http://gtfour.supras.org.nz/st205%20photos.htm <-gen3 (gtfour) engine pictures
    http://gtfour.supras.org.nz/Turbo%20photos.htm <- ct20b pictures

    i have plenty more where those came from.

    ok guys, here are some pics that hopefully help out with this FAQ. if anyone wants some larger pics or measurements let me know and i'll grab them, it may be awhile to i use them hehe.

    these are all parts off an ST205 Gen3 3S-GTE, the same one that Cool1 is using

    mods, if you want to put this in the faq up top, would it be possible to get the images loaded on the toymods server itself as i dont have that much space. cheers

    now for the pics, enjoy
