[ysosrs] dc2r k20 turbo

[monjarassi]

You can kind of see mine in this picture:

I have a coupler type fitting to adapt to the BSPT to NPT and then an NPT T is there, and an adaptor fitting to go from NPT to AN for the feed line.

Martin, looking at yours where does the turbo feel line come from? It looks like the end of the T is the pressure gauge, and the middle part of the T is the stock sensor, no?

thats not mine bro, i copied it from crsx from a diy

Gotcha, that makes more sense.

You guys have any step for starting a motor that has been sitting for a year?

I was planning on putting some oil into each cylinder, wait a day and turn motor by hand before starting it.

Thanks boys.

I primed my oil system by removing the spark plugs and disconnecting the fuel injector wires and turned the motor over with the starter for about 30 seconds.

Just finished moving most of my belongings from my mums house to my house. No garage at the moment due to renovations so all the car parts are staying in the spare room.






A little run down on some of my left over wheels.

Enkei RC-S 16x8 +24




Gab Sports 16x8 +32

Picked up some oem parts yesterday. Exhaust manifold gasket and flywheel bolts. Still to come are spark plug seals, top seals and a rear main seal.







Very sad week as my dog is up for an adoption, 5 month old Marlo. I have 3 good friends coming to see him this weekend.

Congrats on the move and sorry about Marlo! At least he will go to a good friend. Nice wheel collection!

I miss him already. Anyways after searching up on fittings etc for the oil feed, I ended up having one in the turbo kit I bought from JDL. So much win right now.





Worked on the motor a little tonight.



Pulled out the plugs and to my suprise, Hks sparkies! Ballin101.





New oem exhaust manifold gasket on.









Turbo manifold gasket looking at home.







Precision waste gate mounted back on to the manifold along with the dump.







Threw straight on the K&N air filter, will definitely get a proper intake fabricated up once the car is at the running stages





Mocked up the turbo oil return fitting.





I tested and tried out many ways to route the oil feed line and I'm pretty set on this layout.














It feels like I am so close to the finish line but all the little things I want to do all add up. The downside now is that I need to respray my engine bay again, found some small bubbles of rust on the shock tower.
I should have just did the prep job from the beginning to be honest, I really hate these problems creeping up on me by surprise like this.

wow this is an amazing build........

Thanks bro.

I have done a few engine swaps. This time round I went for the clean tucked and semi shaved look.

I respect for all those who have a clean setup, it's a bloody big job.

that's how I routed my feed too.
