gearheadstik Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Are you using a stock hard line or a aftermarket? If stock you just need a modified bolt... If new like a AN fitting should work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Did you get the bolt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearheadstik Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 From what your pm said, are you sure you don't have the turbo upside down? If a stock turbo is being used... The bottom will have a hole with bolt holes on each side. The top will have a single threaded hole, which a bolt goes through a loop in the like, aka banjo fitting... The bolt can be built by drilling a hole through the center 3/4 way through long ways, then drill one through the top threaded section in the other direction... It seals up with a couple brass washers. It you have a aftermarket turbo it may have a adapter needs to bolt to the top. You can find one or sometimes thread the hole to the size of a AN fitting or your feed bolt... Let me know whats up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustyfriend Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yes, I am sure the turbo is not in upside down. Both the top and bottom oil line junctions have a hole in the middle with bolt holes on the sides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearheadstik Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I would see if the hole in the top was able to be threaded with a 12x1.5 to retain the stock turbo lines usage... look at this thread to see how the bolts made http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=121072&highlight=holset+oil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDusel Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Are you missing the banjo bolt or the small plate that bolts to the turbo and accepts the banjo bolt? I may have a spare plate if that is what you are looking for, I seem to remember getting a parts turbo to rebuild and it had a plate on it. If you need the plate let me know and I will see if I can find it.. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustyfriend Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 I am missing everything that it takes to make the loop join to the turbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinhZXT Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Adam, Did you receive the oil pump shaft? You can go to your local auto part store to buy a T fitting with the right thread and it should work for the oil line on the side of the block.

Rustyfriend Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 not sure on the shaft, i am at school at the moment. as for the fitting, i am trying to hook it up to the turbo, not the block Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Adam, Is this what you are trying to do? You have 3 & 6, but need 1,2,4 & 5 right and the two connecting bolts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustyfriend Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 YES!! Finally someone understands! I know you usually have a good deal of turbo parts, do you have spares of these parts? I have to have the car running by the 28th. First auto-x of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
