On 29th Oct, 2012 Mike-998 said:
I just went to a local hydraulics shop with the turbo and asked if they had anything that would fit. I didn't end up using the part either, if its any use to you then you can have it? 
 i want to try and order it off the internet because im going away for a week and would to have it when i come bcak, plus the turbo is still on the car does anyone know? |

Its a normal connector for example a air compressor. If you know the tread and size you can order this from for example airpress. you can do anything if you set your mind to it...

The oil drain isn't threaded on most of the turbos I've had my hands on.

If it's a GT17 or something similar, just get a heather outlet from the head and open the holes up a knat's cock. http://www.minispares.com/product/Classic/...es/12G2534.aspx its the same one thats on the pics i put up, just one big threaded hole :L |

yeah ive got an idea on the way to do it now Not a cheers nore a thanks nore nob all, now I don't look for you to build a gold statue of me or have a tickertape parade in my honour but I would suggest a basic bit of manners may help you get more use full advice. were well into double figures in this thread and still no one's got the foggiest what turbo we are looking to name the thread for!!! I'm gonna waste a bit more breath here but If your trying to make an oil drain for a turbo on a mirage style mani returned into the fuel pump hole your gonna be out of luck, the clearances are so tight making one is really the only option imo On 18th Oct, 2013 apbellamy said:

Notice the angle on the turbo outlet, a straight fitting may not work well. The bit on the block was a fucker to get flush, leaked a lot and ended up smothered in RTV to get it sealed. Yeah like the one on the right in the first picture, How did it work with the silicone pipe? This drain has caused me the most problems in the whole build haha Thanks again Edited by coopdog on 15th Aug, 2014. |
