alternative to stainless turbo lines? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

is there any cheaper alternative to stainless turbo lines? like using heat wrapped fuel line for oil feed for the high pressure oil, ? i don't want to pay out the ass for stainless lines that won't even fit my gt3582r on my rb25det without extra shit needed like fittings, etc.. unless someone knows of a full kit i can purchase that includes water lines too...

thanks

Why don't you just design your own lines if one isn't available and then purchase the individual parts from an auto parts store?

it shouldn't be too much.

You'll need a restrictor fitting for a BB turbo anyways. So you'll just have to suck it up and make you're own if you want to do it right.

These are cheap
Circuit Sports Turbo Lines : RB25DET (Standalone Kit)

i dont know the thread pitch for the turbo but im sure you can fins some AN's or a banjo bolt with the right pitch

an fittings and lines are not expensive, it's the people who buy two hoses and then get fucking buckwild and want to convert every hose in their engine bay to 90 degree and u bend an hoses going to stupid shit like catch cans that make them expensive.

because it's cleaner.

like this

to OP they arent that expensive or hard to make yourself, for just turbo lines just buy some, BUT if you are going to do other stuff in AN just buy hose and fittings from SummitRacing and build away

here are most of the lines i built
