Yeh, it is called a barb... as said, possibly to connect to one of the right angled barbs or to T off from another water line.

you can just buy 2 like the one next to it with those hollow bolts to flow...

I find the simplest way is to get the Banjos and their bolts from some OE application and use the original steel lines to get far enough away from turbo/exhaust heat then use EFI hose to join things up .

When I had a Garrett GT2554R fitted to my Subaru I bought second hand turbo water pipes from an SR20 and reused their banjos and bolts with new copper washers . You can with a tube bender reshape them to whatever you need and cut to your required length .

The steel lines take any amount of heat you can throw at them and if supported properly don't break .

This is the cost effective sollution that looks factory if fitted carefully .

Hi there,

Thanks for the help.

You are right, it's a barbed connector.

I was under the impression that the rear water hose to the turbo is

using a banjo bolt, but that was a misconception.

Now is it much trouble or impossible to remove this line?

the one that cans from the manifold is a hard line with a banjo on the end of it, if your putting the turbo in the standard location try to use it as it will be easier, if not you would be better off just using a banjo barb off the turbo then cut the hard line at the back of the engine bay some where and join the 2 with rubber hose.

I know with my 3540 the banjo bolts were different sizes to the standard turbo, i used banjo barbs for the water line from the back of the turbo to the block and then used the factory banjo and bolt ( only had 2 after market banjo barbs and bolts and couldnt find another to fit) off the other side but had to cut it with about 3" of pipe on it and flare the end, then i just used rubber hose to go to the plenum.

On the line from the plenum there is a section of rubber hose that does a 90 degree bend around the back of the head and then joins to the hard line, mine split and its not uncommon to happen, if i was you i would attempt to bypass it whilst your doing all of this and just run new rubber line from the plenum, i also slid another rubber line over the top where it goes around the back of the head to stop any rubber or vibration wearing through the rubber line.

OK!

I see, good hint.

I am doing this for the first time, put in a Hybrid but neither the standard oil feed nor the water lines fit without modification.

It's quite frustrating since I thought it would be a drop in replacement.

Apparently the Hybrid is using a different centre housing, so it all looked the same but is indeed slightly different.

I thought my car would be back on the road 2 weeks ago, but it's just a journey of discovery with lots of parts

not fitting as I thought they would :(

If I had known in advance I could have ordered all the parts way in advance ..

SIGH!

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
