If I were you, I'd do some test fitting first. I have a D16Y8 with a T25 from a GSX. My adapter plate ended up looking *nothing* like the one in that picture. I'm glad I had the plate done at a local machine shop or I'd have wasted $$ on one of those pre-built plates. For one thing, it had to be slightly wedge shaped to move the compressor housing and waste gate actuator away from the block. The turbo also had to be twisted slightly relative to the exhaust manifold. I used a block of wood as a template to get the design I needed. It was easily the most difficult part of the entire project. Sorry to bear bad tidings... Good luck.
