It appears that the hose that runs from the oil pan to the bottom of the turbo is leaking a little bit of oil at the end closest to the oil pan. The hose is clamped onto the "L" shaped nipple which goes into the pan.

does anyone know where i can find a replacement? part # from Greddy? (yes i already emailed them)

thanks for any/all your help

look at the hose, think. then go make another one.

i didnt know if there was anything specific or whether i could just go to a HD and get another hose of the same size.

u can get the ones from home depot, pep boyz has steel line that will work perfect that is what i used on my car..

Integra21

ok thanks

i have the rubber line that is clamped to a nipple fitting. I wouldnt be able to get the stainless braided one unless i changed the fitting correct?

Integra21

when changing the line, will i have to completely drain the oil? or will there only be a small amount that comes from the turbo and is in the tube?

thanks

drain the oil. when the car is running the fitting is high enough to allow oil to drain back to the pan but after the car is off the oil settles back into the pan and will probably be higher than the fitting so oil will spill out if you take the hose off.

btw pm flamenco-t or StealthmodePerformance they can hook you up with a stainless oil drain setup.

thanks - i will PM them

but will switching to a stainless line set-up require me to take the pan off to change the fittings? or will i be able to utilize the "L" shaped Greddy fitting included in the kit?

thanks again

im not really familiar with the greddy fittings. if its just a hose barb fitting then you will probably need to change it. if it has some type of threads on it then im sure you can probably reuse it.

any pics of your setup or the fitting?

Integra21

i will get some pics up as soon as i can - im at work right now

i dont believe there is any threading though

yeah, i wasnt sure if it was like the rsx turbo kit that has the banjo retun line or not. but you could easily drop the pan and weld a new drain fitting on there, you wouldnt have to worry about it leaking again.

That's a direct replacment for your drain line. Just buy a foot of it...cut it to size and clamp.

very good - thanks

will a parts store, such as Advance Auto Parts carry something like this?

You can see the oil coming from the black hose
