So I went to put my HKS GT2530 on my car, which has essentially the same center cartridge as the S15 T28 or the GT28RS turbos.

I went and bought the S15 oil return tube and hose, thinking that OEM shit would work without any hassles, but nope, shit don't fit.

The oil return tube does not hit the steering linkages as many people said it would (from doing searches and reading up all morning), but my problem is, the tube is almost touching the oil return fitting on the block.

I'll go take a pic of it later on and post it.

Has anyone had that problem before?

Oh, and if I have to clock the center housing, how far can I clock it? I know the drain is gravity fed, so you don't really want to clock it beyond straight down, and I am pretty sure the turbo is clocked so it's pointing straight down now.

Damnit, I'll get pics later.

But for now, anyone go through that BS?
