anyone have any expirence with these OCC. they seem to be good quality for the price. For starters its baffled, also instead of a sight glass it includes a dipstick, and comes with two 15mm and two 9mm fittings depending on size you need. I figured it would be great for my stock 2jzgte swap. found on ebay for $90.

This is the first time I've seen this, looks good but a little pricey for a catch can.

I was just looking at these yesterday. It's a great day price of compared to a mitsumoto or a radium

They do look great

I like the way they look too, 10x better than most ebay brands and some bigger name brands that don't come baffled. from more research it looks like theres no media inbetween the baffles but it is baffled at least, was thinking of this option with no media and hoping the baffling would get the job done cause ive read some steel mesh could break done and get sucked into the intake scaring the cylinders so that's outta the equation.

^ agreed. I used them now. Dont use the ones you might find that are gold colored. There copper coated aluminum scrubbers and they tend to freak you out when you have an elevated copper content in your UOA!

Catch can arrived today. It's a lot smaller than it looks in the pictures. Which is good for mounting

Whats your plan to get vacuum in there? Any shots of it mounted? Does it unscrew for draining or is there a drain valve? I remember on an old engine I would get about a paint cap full of water/oil residue once a week when I drained it while washing the car. I imagine the area you live in plays a big a role too. Any overall veiws of how its plumbed?
