pjo046 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Does anyone have a recomendation for a internet store with good prices on these things? And they do also have to be shipping abroad! I am looking for a -3AN supply line and restrictor and fittings, and a -10AN return line and fittings. Or should I just use the stock 280ZXT return tube/hose? Will this work satisfactorily?

yo2001 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 -3AN line is a nitrous line. hint, hint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjo046 Posted April 12, 2005 Author Share Posted April 12, 2005 Meaning? Do you mean that -4AN is better? Or to buy from a nitrous shop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo2001 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 buy it from a nitrous shop. With -3AN line was a restrictor, you might actually have not enough oil to the turbo, so wait on the restrictor after you try the -AN line. If it smokes, add te restrictor.

pjo046 Posted April 12, 2005 Author Share Posted April 12, 2005 Is it cheap with 70$ for 5 feet of -3AN Stainless steel oil line, two 45 degree 1/8" NPT to -3 AN fittings and a 1/8" NPT restrictor? Also, will 5 feet be enough from the oil sending unit to the turbo and is the hole in the oil sending unit 1/8" NPT???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 cheap restrictor? In the bad old days of rubber hoses, you would use Rochester Jets. Nice calibrated orifice. Later, we would braze the hole shut on a Steel A/N fitting, then bore a calibrated hole in it using your now usless jet-drill set (or any number of number/letter drills available from Harbor Freight) On Aluminum Fittings, if you tap the inside of the end, and screw in a internally hex headed plug, you can drill that also for your orifice. This way, you can always change it by unscrewing it and putting another in there later on... You will be amazed at how small brass and stainless steel internally wrenched hex-head screws are available (if you have a decent hardware store nearby!)

slownrusty Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I did it the way Tony D described. Welded up the bottom of my fitting and drilled it - tah dah instant restrictor, which I welded into the stock sender. I ran all -3 braided line that I bought from Earls. I have posted these pics many, many times, but here goes again: Hope that helps - Yasin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody 82 ZXT Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I did basically the same thing that Yasin did. http://www.angelfire.com/space/nismo1turbo/indexturbo.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
