Im trying to figure out 100% of what is involved in this....what are the downsides, besides warming up i presume? i want to get rid of that whole tangle of pipes...im positive i have seen it done on here somewhere but i cannot remember where...

Can anyone list exactly what is involved...once it is removed...(old piping etc)

Im going to run a remote filter relocation kit + aftermarket oil cooler...so i would like to run a plate straight off the block ---> filter ---> cooler.

(i hope this makes sense :>)

Cheers

done this just last weekend.

you just unbolt the hoses, undo the 4 bolts around the mount (helps to have the oil filter off) once all the bolts are out gently tap the mount off.

once its off you will need to take off the oil pressure sender cause the rb20 mount doesnt have spot for it but about 5-10cms back and slight up from the oil filter is a 1/8 bung in the block thats tapped into the oil gallery thats where you put your sender. there is a casting close to the hole thats where the adapter is needed to space it off.

i didnt have heater hoses hooked up due to custom plenum, after market cooler and relocation kit but you just add a joiner in to loop the two hoses together.

Parts needed,

Rb20 stock oil filter mount

Nissan 4 bolt gasket that joins the block to housing

Inner o-ring on the inside of mount.

A joiner to join the two water hoses together.

A adapter for the oil pressure switch size 1/8 x 1/8 x 1 1/2 or enzed p/n A72-020224

Thread tape

Oil to top it up (best to do job when servicing anyway)

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
