The Z1 Baffled Catch Can Kit filters oil and other particulates from the PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) system and can be used on a variety of applications, from the 350Z or Juke to the Titan or Frontier.

Blow-by is a phenomenon that is normal to some degree on any internal combustion engine. Combustion gasses leak past the piston rings into the crankcase, creating excess crankcase pressure. The PCV system removes these excess gasses by using intake vacuum to draw them back into the intake where they are consumed, but not without catching oil mist in the process. 

The Z1 Oil Catch Can Kit is installed in line with the vehicle's factory PCV system. The catch can uses a steel mesh screen to filter oil and other particulates, trapping them in the catch can while recirculating gasses back through the intake. Removing oil particulates allows the vehicle's PCV system to work more efficiently, removing excess crankcase pressure and keeping your intake system cleaner. On port injection engines (like the Nissan Frontier and Xterra's VQ40), fuel is injected into the intake where it would also clean oil and carbon buildup on the intake valves as it enters the combustion chamber. While this lessens intake buildup, it does not completely prevent it. On direct injection engines like the VQ38 found in the 2020+ Nissan Frontier or the VK56 from the 2016+ Nissan Titan, intake valves don't benefit from the cleaning effect of the fuel and can experience high amounts of oil and carbon buildup. Engines with an excessive amount of carbon build-up on the intake valves can suffer from a loss of power as airflow over the valve is restricted.  Additionally, this build-up can interfere with the valve seat and prevent the valve from sealing causing larger issues. For that reason, we highly recommend catch cans on ALL direct injection engines.
