Ethanep82 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Right i'm quite over my head now with all this shit, tried reading up as much as I can but need some actual help now. I'm gonna be a running a GT2860RS on a topmount setup, I have no water/oil lines with it. I believe the thread size is AN4 for oil and water lines, is this correct?I have also read about the GT28 requiring a oil restrictor?What can I use for oil return? I just need to know what to order, I'm so deep and lost at the mo Any help much much appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Im having similar issues atm dude.I just bought some hydraulic hose from ebay for the oil return. Its 1m and 3/4" ID, just cut to size. Its got 2 layers of braiding inside so takes some cutting lol!Seems very cheap but its very good quality.For the oil feed my original one was from Zisco. Im having to get one custom made so trying a few different places, local hose places etc.Also WEPR can defo sort you out Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For oil return on the turbo, I already have the adaptor plate thingy on it, so I just need pipe to go on the turbo and then onto the sump, I believe anyway...lol God they are expensive, £15 each if you order from a UK supplier ?!

Sweet, will order that pipe later. Just spoke to WEPR, they can supply me a complete kit, but it is pretty pricey lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) I've got a billet an-12 return you can have for not a lot if you want it. That'll fit a gt28. Use An-6 water lines - torques is a good place to buy fittings. An-4 oil feed. depending on your engines oil pressure and what bearing setup your 28 has you may need a oil restrictor like you mentioned.
