Fitted left side easy, right turbo the 90 deg fitting does not fit anywhere? seams to be a bigger wrong thread. Can do pics if needed.

you need to get an adaptor Smithy used to sell them!

Oh poo!!!!

 

I will give him a shout.

erm......VD30DETT???

Oh silly me!!!!! Does say 300zx

i know.....its probably just a typo

Well one side fitted nice, will have to go shopping tomorrow see if i can get something to the other..

Have you contacted the person you bought them off and asked if he can help?

waiting for email back....

you don't need anything, i have something similar from Z1 motorsport, it came with the GT675RS turbo kit i bought...

this is the kit:

 

Starting with the right hand side (passenger side on US models). In order to install the 90 degree AN fitting on the back right hand side of the engine you will need to remove this adapter block first.

 

 

After removing the original oil line adapter you are ready to install the replacement 90 Degree AN fitting. The pipe thread portion that screws into the block requires thread sealant, a high temp liquid teflon or teflon tape sealant is suitable.

 

Hand start the fitting to insure that it is properly threaded then tighten it down. It will require a wrench with a long reach to access the fitting.

 

Once tight the fitting should point downward to insure that the line can be routed properly.

 

Prior to mounting your turbo pre-install the oil restrictor into the turbo, applying some high temp loc-tite sealant to the threads. Then attach the line to the oil restrictor. No sealant is used on the AN fitting (hose side) of the fitting.

 

Be sure to route your oil feed hose inside of the metal lines, keeping the oil feed hose as far from the turbine housing as possible. Route the hose underneath the turbo. Do not position either of the oil feed lines so that they rest directly against the turbine housing (hot side) of the turbo.

 

Attach the oil feed hose to the 90 degree fitting installed in the block.

 

Hope this helps...

Thank for the help but had removed the oil line adapter and its a small thread hole and I have a larger thread to go back in!! Looks like i have the wrong one.

is this job possible to do with the engine in?

 

dan.:cool3:

Not possible, i already tried, but my Z is LHD...maybe on yours could be...

Been told you can but I would never do it so so easy with engine out

doubt you can carry out work engine being in the car ... its fairly awkward even when engine is out ..

Amadeus the oil supply feeds are different on LHD and RHD cars and thats why you need the adaptor.

Sorry, there is no difference except the oil pressure sender positioning...i am using a rhd block in my z, and that is the only difference i could find between the two...

 

PS: i don't need anything...:tongue:

ok looks like its a job that will have to wait then.

Will bow to your greater wisdom as I have never worked on LHD block, only going on information given to me:surrender:

Any fix for my hoses anyone?

I thought Amadeus had shown you a fix, are you saying you still need an adaptor?

yes the one that I got with the kit does not if the engine or the adapter block..

 

anyone know what thread sizes on the adapter block and engine please..

You will be better off talking to smithy and or danny at dta as I believe they used to sell the oil lines and adaptors?
