i got a boosted integra and its pretty low. my oil return line is scraping the ground while i'm driving, is there anyway i can prevent that from happening other than raising up the car?

just return line? what about oil pan as it sits lower than return fitting?

 

Shorten the line

 

my return line sits lower than my oil pan. i can't shorten it because then it wont reach the turbo. intercooler piping is in the way.

yeah I want to see pics of this also...... sounds like you need to get creative with the line and not run it under the IC piping to were it is scraping the ground

 

heres a pic of it. i wrapped it with some heat wrap so it wouldnt scrape the actual line but that didnt seem to work.

 

HOLY **** dude...... yeah I am surprised you are just now running into issues with that..... you need to definatly reroute your return line

Can you get anymore pics than that so we can atleast help you solve your problem?

 

try zip tying it, that doesn't look normal to me lol

 

yea ill jack the car up tomorrow and take more pics.

 

Its just waiting to happen...



and when it does



your turbo is fuckkedd

And probably motor too because he probably wont notice it untill its to late

 

You have got to be kidding me. Your best bet is to call Brian Spilner to see what he would do.

Buhahahahahahaha I cant belive you pulled a F&F number on him

 

haha, i needed a good laugh i was starting to nod off at work.

 

sounds like he bought the car like that, i wonder how the rest of that gem is like

 

more duct tape! j.k.

 

thats the biggest fustercluck ive ever seen...

 

funny someone pointed out F&F

in the first movie, in one of the first scenes where Brian goes to the illegal street races, you see a low shot of the mistu, you can see his SS fuel/nitrous or oil return line dragging on the ground, worse than this guys.

Good build from the guys in the movies!!

 

^^haha the sad thing is that you remember that
