oooo gl with the build! keep us posted and have fun

The only question I have is about the oil drain line. I have a An-10 pan fitting from Driftmotion. I just dont know about the drain from the turbo. Getting it through the runners doesnt look fun.

DO not run the oil return in between the runners don't do it.

^^^ listen to this man, clock your turbo's center section slightly, use a 45 degree off of the drain flange or whatever you need to clear the runners completely. running it through the runners may lead to problems down the line...

99SC42 Dec 22, 2010 08:50 AM

The car will catch on fire no BS here i am very serious don't do.
That's why i scratched my 1JZ single project, because the oil return wouldn't clear the manifold, or the WG won't clear the DP.It was too much for me lol.

They are right. You might want to look into using Metal Tubing for routing of the Oil Return See Pictures

Goddd exactly lol I really don't know why companies make things the way they do, I guess to keep us thinking. Its like rite when you get your new parts on thinking easy install, you have to modify this and that and customize ***** :p

Thanks for the input guys. I was planning on using a 1/2" ss pipe that I can make at work. I make sure to let you guys know what I did.

Also
What about a braided stainless line? Do you guys think it would work?

Correct me if I'm wrong... are those SSR?

You have the style correct, but not the brand. Trust me, I would love some SSR's, but am afraid of them getting jacked. Also my wife curbbing them.

If you must know, there ASA. Offsets are okay. 33/35. I am running spacers also

I am using my phone right now but tomorrow I will post some pics on your thread to show you what you need to get its really easy and you will be happy with the results.
I have seen a car caught on fire from a hack up job on the return line.

I use braided stainless steel line for my return, but it doesn't go through the runners. works like a champ.
I don't care what material its made out of never run it through the runners, hardline or not.
you can clear most runners with the right fittings and some clocking, but be sure not to use more than a 45 degree fitting.
