Hi,

I just purchased a used greddy T618Z kit without emanage. I'll be using Cobb AP with mazda maniac's tunes.

Main problem-

It's missing the oil return adapter for the stock pan. I need to know what size thread that is, so I can buy an adapter to be able to use that as an oil drain. I don't wanna drill into the stock pan, and I don't have the cash for a greddy oil pan.

Anyway, please post any tips, or what gaskets and part numbers to purchase prior to attempting a weekend install.

I just have to have the car to drive 2 miles a day to work after the weekend. So I have to have everything prior to starting the project.

Here's the kit. =)

I'll replace the silicon couplers to reinforced ones with real hose clamps from extreme turbo systems. Handed down from my 350whp 22psi eclipse (gone due to inheriting massive payments for the RX8).

I'm about to start loving the car though. =)

Also, I bought the turbo kit from a chic on ebay. lol Anyone know Learic?? From Colombia, Maryland?

Thanks for your help everyone!

Regards,
Mark

p.s. you guys seems so much more helpful than the DSM sites I used to be on when I was serious with my eclipse. Thanks!

Please post pics of greddy kit with intercooler. I wanna see the front end of this car with some speed bling.

 

I took my spare drain plug down to a place that makes hydraulic hoses and got them to make a fitting for me and drilled it out as much as i dared .
We got a m14x 1.5 male nipple and welded a barb fitting same size as greddy drain tube to it making it as short as possible .

Send that turbo off to BNR for a rebuild and an upgrade if you want a kick *** setup - well worth it for $1000
