Default garret t3to4e what kind of thread is the oil intake? a.s.a.p.

can anybody tell me what kind of thread(name and size) the oil intake is on a new garret t3to4e? i have got a tuner toyz oil line kit but the fitting on the line is way to small and female so i took iot to a shop but they have never seen this thread before.... maybe its because i live in europe.
THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

That fitting looks just like mine... you need 1/4" National Pipe Thread (NPT) male to 1/8" National Pipe Thread (NPT) female, as stated earlier. Look in plumbing supply shops... I actually had this fitting in a box of plumbing supplies in my garage, so I got lucky and didn't even have to look for it

We can still find all different threads here... BSPT, NPT, AN fittings... even though NPT is the standard Look for specialty shops!

have you tried contacting one of the Garrett distributors in Europe?

http://www.turbobygarrett.com/....html

You may not be able to go to a local shop, but you could try ordering it online. But two people have already said that it is probably 1/4" NPT male...so get a 1/4" NPT male to 3 AN male (or whatever feed line size you have) or a 1/4" NPT male to 1/8" NPT female.

BSPT - British Standard Pipe Thread. Not BNPT.

Man, I would help you out and send you one that we have here @ work, but we only have 3/8 male to 1/8 female if I remember correctly.

garret in my country will only help me if i have all part numbers but garret turbo's from phoenix turbo don't have part numbers on every part!
and i know a few people told me that its a 1/4th inch male npt but that doesn'tfit perfect its only good for 2 turns and the shops over here say it isn't 1/4 npt so i guess the US npt is different from the europe npt
and no its not bspt we have tried that to and its different.
do you guys know of any company that sels flanges that will fit in stead of connectors?
thanks!!!!!!!!
