Garrett 3071r Oil And Water Lines?

[sriver killer]

hey guys

got a rb25det. about to reove my standard turbo and put a 3071r on.

just a couple of questions,

i have an oil line made up for the oil feed for the turbo. it does't have a restrictor in it. is this alrite?

i was told that 3071r's have in built in oil restrictors. . what about the size of the oil feed line?

as for the water lines, i was thinking of cutting the standard water lines and barbing the ends of them. and running braided hoses clamped to the original lines for the turbo. are the inside diameters of the standard water lines good enough for cooling a 3071r/

cheers

You have 7/16 UNF for oil feed, which your stock is M12x1.25

Water fittings are M14x1.5 which your stock water fittings are in M18x1.5

Oil drain bolt pattern is in T28 (1.5inch) your stock is in 2 inches

New oil drain adaptor is mast. withes threads you can either tab all the thread sizes to suit your stock lines or get new lines made. We normally drill and tab them into stock thread.

that ebay kit seems to be the go.anyone tried them? crap quality?

do yo need a restrictor in the oil feed? the current lines that i have for the turbo ( damaged) seem to be the same inside diameter as standard. they don't have an oil restrictor

are the stock water lines the right size aswell ( inside diameter). . cause i might cut my standard water feed, and hose clamp the braided turbo lines that i already have to the cut water feed.

tapping it wouldn;t be to bad

tao do you do any oil and water line kits?

cheers

Most of the ebay lines has rubber in it. For water they are ok. For oil You need the teflon braided line. We normally machine our bearing housings to suit stock water lines, so I can only supply the oil feeding line for $80.

You can get your water lines made up at local Enzed or Pirtek stores for about $150. Or just drill and tab new thread. Cost lot less.

You don't need restrictor for the BB unit. They already got 20 thou restrictor on their oil feeding pin.

check the ebay feedback, it seems to be good, noone with fitment issues for the GT3076 RB25 kits and a few sold.

message the seller and ask about materials used, highly doubt it is cheaply made. alot of items that seller has are OEM.

Hint , many SR20 OE water cooled turbos use the same size banjos and bolts as the Garrett BB turbos in the GT2554R to GT3582R range .

Sometimes import wreckers will sell them to you for not a lot of money .

All you really need the steel water lines for is to get far enough away from the turbos heat for rubber hose to survive reliably . High pressure (EFI) fuel hose makes good rubber water line material .

The Nissan banjos/bolts are compact and look factory because they are . Just make sure the water supply line runs uphill to the turbo and the outlet one uphill to wherever it connects to the system .
