Hey mate,

Welcome - may i suggest a search...

The gt3071/3076 would have to be one of the most well covered turbos on SAU

[aerofocker]

ive read quite a bit on here about them but one never knows everything

[aerofocker]

like do i need a manifold spacer to clear the compressor housing from the standard rb25det exhaust manifold? any images of the 90 degree outlet pipework,ive got water and oil braided hoses and a drain sorted,i need a mount for the actuator for the wastegate

[aerofocker]

anybody know if i need the manifold spacer with this turbo?

[aerofocker]

bump for compressor clearance

Well you can get the turbo dimensions off the internet or Garrett...

Then it's a simple case of getting out a tape measure.

my cars in ireland,i work in greece,i believe after some more research a 10mm spacer is required

[wolverine]

a 10mm spacer will be cheap and if you don't need it not much loss.

hang on you just said "I work in Greece" I call bullsh1t..............

............ no one works in Greece)

[aerofocker]

so has anybody any helpfull hints on getting this turbo in with the minimum hastle,i have a filter to instal in the braided oil lines that i have,the in line filter has -4 an male fittings on it so im not sure where to get appropiate connections to my line. ive got a 10 mm t3/4 spacer and longer studs some 90 degree hoses for the ic piping side of things,myt be a bit of fun with the inlet hose as this turbo has a 2.75 '' inlet and my car just has a standard steel internal journal bearing turbo

[aerofocker]

bump?

[STATUS]

buy a complete bolt on kit from here gcg.com.au that is the cheapest least hassle way.
