L0L...if it's all the same to you, I'm just gonna hold off on snoopin' around under the bonnet till it gets to at LEAST above zero around here...think mid-late April...

Nah its summer here lol.
Tho even when we get winter it doesnt snow. Just windy-rain-crap weather etc
Anyway more pics!!
This first one leads off the intake into a Y pipe, as you can see part of it comes off the top of the intake and part of just next to the fuel pressure regulator. and the long piece plastic wrapped leads into the group of hoses in my next pic, Its routed behind the window washer fluid.


Here its coming down into the group


The group of hoses all tied together leading down into a tube that holds on the hoses ( cant think of the proper name :P)


Following the tube it goes down behind the airbox infront of the engine Leftside of the car by the airbox.



It then heads down into the front diff.


Its really hard to get a pic of where the hoses go, it looks like 2 of the hoses mount into the front diff?
hard to get a pic.


and one of them goes down the inside of the chassis rail
like this

Then finaly into this odd looking thing?


While i was under the vx i had a look at the rear diff and ontop of it i can see a hose going up behind the fuel tank into this. Which imo would be the vent for the diff?


Please say if any more pics are needed of certain parts.

All im tryna do is fully workout what the 3 hoses are for, etc if oneday if i went out 4x4ing and somehow got water down one.

Thanks

I seem to remember reading somewhere that some part of the 4-lo/TOD/2-hi T-case option that JDM VX's, & US spec Troopers have, is vacuum controlled.

I think your best help is going to come from one of your JDM siblings, who is more familiar with it than I am...

And yes, that btm pic is most definitely the rear diff breather.

Yeap ty Ldub . Ty for confirming the rear breather, just as i thought.
Come on other Jdm vx owners ? lol


They must be there for a reason, the zip tie is like a factory one as you can undo it using your finger not a screw driver to pry up the tab etc.
