hey guys hoping some light could be shined here,

ive just picked up a hks 2835 and a trust oil cooler for my gtt,

ive tried searching on here but couldn't really find the details needed,

im wanting to buy earls fittings and make my own lines but not sure about the sizes i need,

with the oil cooler its AN10 so ill be sweet getting the fittings and an10 hose, does anyone know of a good place to buy it.

now with the turbo i have no idea about what size fittings or lines ill need, i know ill need 90's into the turbo but thats about it.

what fitting are need on the other end etc.

if anyone could help here i would much appreciate it, its killing me seeing it sit in a box on my floor lol

on another note does anyone know of a good place to get some alluminium plate or sheet, i need to fab a couple of brackets for the cooler aswell

thanks

you will probably find it cheaper and easier to just get a decent professional to make em up... my braided lines and speedflow fittings only cost $230 for my 2835...

I'd also be interested to know about the oil cooler earl's fittings too... I thought the oil cooler I have (HKS typeS) had larger than -10 fittings though...

Im needing screw in fittings for my greddy oil relocation plate to fit the HKS oil cooler lines???

the turbo didnt actually come with any papers or instructions and its the kai, couldnt find a pro s anywhere.

the cooler and sandwich plate ive got aree 100% -10 well thats wat i ordered anyway.

i managed to find a shop near my place so i might just take it all down there and see what they can do, im worried about them not knowing which fittings are needed for the turbo lines on the motor end

also do i need a new oil drain pipe or will the original one bolt up?

My kit came with a new drain pipe. It's slightly shorter from memory and connects to the standard rubber hose so you

May have an issue there as the hose has a bend.

Pretty sure the HKS one was shorter at least, don't remember. Just saying there might be an alignment issue

75 coupe, some really old HKS coolers had -12 lines but it's pretty uncommon. either way it's a piece of piss to fit. you just need to get the -12 hose ends (if it really is -12) and make sure they come with the right thread to fit into the -10 greddy filter mount. or if you have the hose ends already with the HKS stuff just find a -10/-10 adapter. but there will be fittings that screw into the greddy plate allowing you to fit -12 lines to it for sure. but check it actually is -12 first as it's pretty unlikely.

    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
    • Yep, this bit another local owner. I caught it before putting the transmission back into the car, what I noticed was the pressure plate fingers weren't flat and even. It's more obvious with the pull style clutch because the throwout bearing ring was visibly not flat once everything is put together. Nismo should really update their instructions to call out this specific detail. I'm not even sure the clutch as-shipped orients everything properly.
