Get the proper generic drains for that cartridge with the proper bolt hole seperation from MTQ turbos and start again. Make sure you change oil feed restricotrs to the turbo's to. Use about a 1.5mm restrictor as those turbos are known to smoke a little with standard restrictors.

You will need to slot out the standard oil drain to fit the 2860-5. Pita as it doesn't need to go and awfull lot but enough to make you spend a bit of time one the round file - unles you're a lucky bugger with and air file or similar.

I got fussy and trimmed the gasket to fit all pretty.

Cheers

ps my 2860-5 had what looked like oil restrictors fitted when i got them.

yep all slotted out,and they fitted perfect 4 i installed the turbos.but the thing i need to no now is,can i put the oil drainpipes on once the turbos are installed?there bolted up and the oil and water lines are on BUT i forgot the drain back pipes b4 installing.so is it possible to install after the turbos are ion the car....rear drain pipe is ion but the front isnt and its a bitch.....??????????

Haha its funny that everyone is discussing different sized oil returns and restrictors blah blah where i think hes asking is it physically possible to install the front oil drain with the turbos on....

It IS possible if you can manage to do it yourself, but if you cant then its not possible.

From memory its tricky even on the bench cos the lines to the core get in the way...

      r34's love to squeal

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
