i was just wondering whether anyone could tell me what type of oil fitting if on the block side of the turbo oil feed line. Im just wondering because im soon to be putting on a different turbo on my 33 and want to replace the oil feed line with a full braided line. I want to make up the line before i take the original off the car, because i am limited for garage time. I work with hydrolics at work so as soon as i know the type of fitting on the block side i can order in the fitting and make the line up. Any help is much appreciated

You are after thread sizes and bolt length ? ^R33_KRAZY

There is a Banjo bolt in the block and a straight pipe feed return line that clamps on.

Just have the braided line made up to suit both banjo bolts on the block and on the top of the turbo oil feed line.

If you want any further guidance just shoot me a pm and i will send you a picture to help :P

Ok as promised.

The Oil feed Banjo bolt hole on the block is has a thread of 12x1.25

Same as the oil feed on the top of the turbo.

Water threaded holes on the turbo are both 18x1.5

Water threaded hole on the block is 13x1.5

:)

Oil lines are quite easy , we used to buy -4AN mild steel weld on fittings drill them to size and braze them to a short section of the original steel pipe at either end . Then its straightforward to make up braided line with female -4AN fittings and join it all up . Have to support the line properly off metalic things .

Cheers A .

    • It still combines inches with mm, especially when you have .5 inches involved, and mm and inches that can go in either direction. This would give a clear idea on both sides of the rim, right away, with no arithmetic. Even better if somebody gives you the dimensions of the arch of multiple cars. i.e GTR may be 125mm, a A80 Supra may be 117mm, or something along those lines. Yes, you can 'know' that going from a 10in rim to a 10.5in rim with the same offset moves both sides about 6mm, but you still have to 'know' that and do the math. Often it's combined. People are going from 9.5 +27 to 10.5 +15. You may do the math to know it, but if it was going from (I had to go look it up to be sure) 241mm/2 - 27 - 93.5mm from the center line to (more math) 266/2 - 15 (118mm) from the center line. Versus 93mm vs 118mm. It's right there. If you know you have a GTT with 100mm guards you can see right away that one is close to flush and the other absolutely won't work. And when someone says "Oh the GTR is 120mm" suddenly you see that the 10.5 +15 is about perfect. (or you go and buy rims with approximately 118mm outward guard space) I think it's safe to say that given one of the most common questions in all modified cars is "How do offsets work" and "How do I know if wheels will fit on my car" that this would be much simpler... Of course, nothing will really change and nobody is going to remanufacture wheels and ditch inches and offset based on this conversation :p We'll all go "18x9+30 will line up pretty close to the guards for a R34 GTT (84mm)" but 'pretty close' is still not really defined (it is now!) and if you really care you still have go measure. Yes it depends on camber and height and dynamic movement, but so do all wheels no matter what you measure it for.
    • But offsets are simple numbers. 8" wheel? Call it 200mm, near enough. +35 offset? OK, so that means the hub face is that far out from the wheel centreline. Which is 2s of mental arithmetic to get to 65mm to outer edge and 135mm to inner. It's hardly any more effort for any other wheel width or offset. As I said, I just close my eyes and can see a picture of the wheel when given the width and offset. That wouldn't help me trust that a marginal fitment would actually go in and clear everything, any more than the supposedly simple numbers you're talking about. I dunno. Maybe I just automatically do numbers.
    • Sure! But you at least have simple numbers instead of 8.5 inches +/mm, relative to your current rims you do maths with as well, and/or compare with OEM diameter, which you also need to know/research/confirm..
