Need to get oil and water lines for my highmount gt3082 on rb2530. As topic states, where is the best place to buy. Obviously there is a difference in quality out there in the kits I have come accross, ranging from about $80 up to nearly $400.

What have you guys used? tried searching cannot find answers.

Thanks

I'd go and buy good second hand steel turbo water lines and banjo bolts from an SR20DET . They use either a Garrett bush or ball bearing center section which is externally same dimensions as your turbo . You buy new copper crush washers and bend/cut the steel lines so that they get far enough away from the turbos heat to enable the use of rubber hose to plumb to the engines water inlet and outlet . I've used EFI fuel hose in the past because its hardy re inforced so more durable than carby low pressure stuff .

Unless you get them pre made and cost effectively I think braided lines for water to 110C and 14-16 pounds pressure is over kill and more expensive than it needs to be .

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
