  1. Its just getting hold of one and fitting it before it goes to Ryan. I dont know why it was bodged up like this in the first place when all the other feeds and returns have the correct fittings.
  2. This is what it has now - http://shopping.kinugawaturbo.com/turbooildrainreturnpipekitgarrettt2t25t28tb02-1-1-1.aspx Shall I just replace it with something like this? - http://www.ebay.com/itm/17-10AN-TURBO-BRAIDED-OIL-DRAIN-RETURN-LINE-Garrett-T3-T4-T04E-T70-T60-T61-GT35-/180780614223
  3. What does that mean? I can prehaps put a new bit of hose on and retighten but I doubt it will hold if its under that much pressure.
  4. What! It was me that corrected everyone else on the difference in steam and smoke Its definately smoke from the oil side and steam from the water side Im just wondering if the turbo has a thread on the oil return so I can use a proper fitting or are some built with just a flared pipe to jubilee a hose over? Its driving me mad ive got my mapping session in less than 2 weeks so need it sorted

    Supra dude

    I like your bonnet! Welcome by the way
  6. I was gunno upgrade from my Yokahama 315/30/18s soon to 335/30/18 r888s. I havent checked but I assume they would fit ok.
  7. Hi guys, I was just out and about on a casual drive with the occasional blip here and there to find when I got home there was smoke coming from under the bonnet. So I lifted it up to inspect and after the smoke cleared ive found oil leaking from the turbo return line dripping onto the exhaust manifold Not only that but water seeping out the aeroquip fitting from the water return line also. The water leak has been like it for a while and I needed to change it as the hose is pulled quite tightly accross making the connection a bit weak. What I would like to know is why the braided hose for the oil return has no fitting on the end of it and seems to be jubilee clipped over a flared pipe that runs into the turbo. This is where the oil is seeping out of, I could try and tighten it more but why has the turbo not got a threaded hole for a proper fitting? Also I dont know how hot oil should get but it looked like it was bubbling out from the hose but I dont know if thats just down to air seeping past. Thanks in advance!
  8. What the exact shade? That will look mean!!!
  9. Happy days mate! How long does a conversion like this take? So we could possibly see you at bluewater soon in the beast?
  10. I would attend this but im off to Surrey rolling road a few days after for a remap so its pointless. It will be a good day out tho im looking forward to see some results
  11. This is shocking! What kind of person does this..
  12. Hi and welcome to the forum You could just replace the line that its leaking from If you can swap it over yourself then its better it wouldnt cost alot at all. Make sure you get some pictures up when you get it
  13. Exactly what I done. When I first rivited the arches on before actuall bonding them when I first lined the wheels up they were well off. Also regarding the 13J fitment wheres a good place to find that wheel of that width? Ive searched but cant find anywhere
  14. Mine are et20 on the rears but I think you can get away with et20 so ive been told.
