Where to buy GReddy oil catch can?

What vendors on here sell the GReddy oil catch can? I need the 15mm version.

I need one shipped by USPS Priority International. I can pay by credit card, paypal or epassporte.

If you change your mind let me know; for 10 minutes at Home Depot or Lowes; you can get a catch can (same assembly as Greddy); and you can empty the container unlike Greddy.

I got a few PM's

SO I thought I would post pics.

Sorry if I am thread jacking.

You need: 2 3/8 NPT barbed threads (I am changing mine to anodized); About 4 feet of braided clear nylon hose; and 1 Kobalt or Husky water/air separator found in the air tools area. They are both the same thing; just different colors. I have Kobalt from Lowes for $22.

Be sure to keep the Arrow on top pointed from the crankcase to the intake (direction of flow). The bottom of the can can be removed to empty - and there is a nipple on the bottom of the Kobalt that will need to be removed and plugged. The Husky one has a normal drain valve.

BTW - That filter is driving my MAF crazy... have to go back to the longer one I think.

I got the GReddy one off eBay for $90 shipped. All the instructions are in Japanese!
This is a really (probably) newb question, but how does this install?? Can someone link me to a DIY or just PM me or something?

Take the oil breather hose off. Use the hose in the Greddy kit to fit it ...

See my crappy *** pics; your hoses need to be routed the same way - from the breather to your intake.

Or you can put a filter on it if you want like mysql.
