Braided Lines On Turbo

[Drakey]

Hi All,

New Turbo going on my RB.

I have a braided oil line at the top which makes things alot easier.

I also want to add braided lines for the coolent set up for easy install.

But one of the collant line run back into a splitter and there is nothing to infact bolt the other end of the line onto.

For people who have changed turbo's, who has come across this and how did you get around it?

Below is a pic of what i mean.

Can you somehow connect a braided line onto this metal tubing?

Im stumped

Yeah, you push the braided hose onto the metal tube and use a hose clamp to clamp it down.

as above...

I did the same thing with mine, just from paranoia I used 2 hose clamps.

Or you can get a fitting that goes onto the bundy tube with an an fitting on the other end.

as adriano said u can buy a tube sleeve & nut and flare the end of the tube. personally i would only do it this way.

also with the braided hose, make sure u heat wrap it or you'll find it melting in the not too distant future.

Wow!! braided lines are expensive! lol

[shanef]

yes they are, and especially if you go to enzed.

best place if ur buying in bulk is from www.summitracing.com i've bought thousands from them with no dramas, and they have 24/7 phone tech/sales support too! locally though i've used both mscn.com.au and vpw.com.au with no problems, mscn have true overnight delivery and their prices are good
