I still haven't connected the hoses actually. I ordered 3/8" hoses from Summit but they got lost in the mail so I'm working on that right now.
However, the installation is actually different on my car. On my G35 HR, there is a vacuum port (for PCV) that goes from the passenger side valve cover and connects to another port in the back of the plastic plenum.
For the VHR, you actually have two PCV vacuum ports, one on each valve cover, and each port is connected to another port at the front of the plastic plenum.

For the VHR, you'll need to modify your catch can so that it has two ports for each, or you can get an ARC oil catch can/coolant reservoir combo tank that already has dual ports for the VHR.

Pics of oil catch can
avosg37 is correct; there really isn't any room for an oil catch can.
Attached pictures for mine installed on my Skyline 250GT
Catch can #1 located inside the brake fluid reservoir compartment (First OCC Small.JPG)
Catch can #2 replaced the stock airbox. This was only possible because the aftermarket intake freed up space. I used the mounting hole for the original airbox and a generic L-bracket (Second OCC small.JPG)
Catch cans from www.saikoumichi.com
There is a fair amount of oil drained. This is the contents of my catch can after approx 10,000km (6,250 miles) (OCC Contents small.JPG)
