danpug 1 Posted February 14, 2008 I've got a 300zx turbo for my 1.8 build, it was reconditioned and very cheap. Problem is i've realised the compressor housing is right in the way of the exhaust manifold. Now i know you can rotate the housing and there is also two other holes tapped for the actuator bracket to bolt into if it is rotated but they only allow approx an inch of turn (am i making sense?!?!?). I've got a feeling this turbo won't fit at all due to said problems, only thing i can think of is tap a couple of new holes for the actuator bracket to bolt to, if this is possible? If i can't do this then i'm going to rob a bank and buy a certain t16.............................................. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tom_m 0 Posted February 15, 2008 rotate the comp housing and use a universal waste gate bracket from AET or the such. might need a new actuator too, but a damn site cheaper the the alternative Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Turbo 3 Posted February 15, 2008 You can drill and tap some extra holes, I did on my upgraded housing because the holes were in completely the wrong place compared to the standard housing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
