You dont need to prime it, cranking the motor over initialy to get oil presure will feed the turbo, during cranking with the spark plugs out (how you should crank over a new motor to build oil presure) the turbo will not spin, even with the spark plugs in it will hardly turn, only once its started will you need that oil there fairly rapidly.

i run the factory banjo with restrictor off the block, as well as the inbuilt garret one, this is what Cubes does also. neither of us have had any dramas (mine has done a few track days now, and cubes has done 70,000 kms or someshit lol)

I've got an update.

I sent my turbo back to the Garrett supplier Blouch Turbo, along with the restrictor I purchased from ATP. Mike at Blouch wanted to see it. Well I called him back today and he tells me that the restrictor has what looks like to him as a drill bit broke off in it! He said this is what starved the turbo for oil. That ATP should send me a new CHRA. I also contacted the shop that I ordered it from. Dynoformance. I tell the owner Andrew what is going on, he wanted me to keep him up-to-date. He tells me that he has gotten a restrictor from them that wasn’t even drilled all the way out! Now he did say that ATP warranted his turbo with no questions asked. Now I’m waiting for ATP to open and see what they tell me. I’ll let everyone know how it goes.

That's pretty dodgy.

Simon/Cubes: This factory restrictor.. is it actually part of the factory banjo (block side)?

If so I can just reuse the factory banjo and have a braided line soldered (braised? whatever) on?

It is... There is a restrictor in the banjo and bolt. I did exactly that. Reused the banjo and the bolt and had pirtek solder a new piece of bundy tube to it then bent accordingly to the turbo. Lines up perfectly and is actually quite easy to fit/remove. Best of all the turbo oil feed in total only cost ~$40 for a durable solid metal feed. :)

In total my motor has done a little over 70k but the turbo has only done around 12,000km's.

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
