What size thread is it gary ??

I have a spare one at home here I think its 19mm

you can try it if you want

Not sure mate, most of the thread is still stuck in the oil filter. It would be std skyline. The mount has that big ass can on the side with the hose pipe going to it..... and ribbing. I assume its a cold engine bypass ... never really looked into what it does. (do you have a pic of it ???)

I'll be phoning around locally today to see if there is one up here.... surely someone has wrecked an rb25 block ! Also buying a 3 prong oil filter remover !!!

SS , yeah mate, no gain at all....... but mine and haines are autos, so i wouldn't panic just yet for your manual. To me, to not see a gain means something else is already at its airflow limit....

but then again it could just be Auto voodoo .... case in point, haines has 244 rwkw, using 480cc's (not sure the duty) , im on 257 rwkw and was maxxing the 550's at 6000rpm (now 740's at 73%)

Looking forward to hearing your results.

Gary

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
