You have to get it from Greddy direct. They use their own special threads. Goodridge doesn't even make them.

Are you serious? I had a couple missing brackets/wrong rubber piece for air filter and it took so long to get that, this is probably going to take forever? Or do you know is this parts they have in stock? thanks for the info

We had to order one a few weeks ago and they just got some in. I'll give them a call today and see if they still have some. I'll let you know.

Heh, heh, heh . . . been there, done that! I tried every store in Lexington and they all said, "Jesus, that's the largest banjo fitting we've ever seen." Coming from a place that works on 18 wheelers means quite a bit

Needless to say, I broke a banjo and instead of waiting for the bolt from Greddy (they were on backorder a month ago), I simply installed the original oil pan that came with the first few kits. Its simply our stock pan with welded fittings. IMHO, it alleviates the possibility of getting an oil leak or broken banjo. Plus, who's under the vehicle anyway?

They have them in stock luckily, and thanks to dynamic6er for the pn I got 2 of them just in case and they cost 22.50. That's actually the reason it busted, there was oil leaking from it

Just be sure you don't torque it down too much . . . I'm not sure on the torque values, but I remember they were really low. Combine that with the fact that they're not steel and you've got some very low tolerances before you break 'em.

OK I got the banjo bolt and started up fine, I now have exhaust leaks on each end of the Y pipe. Anyone have any suggestion on gaskets for this? The ones that came w/ weren't that great I guess or at least aren't reusable after being installed. I need 2 between the cats connecting to the Y and 1 coming off the end of the Y to the mid pipe. I seen the nismo kit a little expensive, but that's exactly what I need.

thanks!

Nice beer bottle

Personally, I hate the Greddy banjo bolts . . . they break too easily. Oh well, at least you go yours fixed

haha, that's a mag. Needs to be a something like a Guiness or Boddington...

Yea I agree I have an extra one right here if anyone happens to break one 22.50. I was thinking of getting different fittings to run the steel braid, but at this point I just want to get the car on the road and then think of the extras.

Mmmm.... Guiness

Before I replaced the current pan with the original Greddy modified pan, I contempted using some AN fittings with 90 degree elbow and barb ends . . . would've required welding. Greddy simply overnighted the original oil pan with welded fittings, so I went that route. It's uglier, but hey, who sees it?

I have hated greddy oil lines for a long time. I dont use them anymore.

When i put the turbos in my car last winter I went straight to my own oil lines, never used the greddy ones... notice the lines by the oil filter.

yep I've seen your set up I like it alot. The coat on the turbo/manifold/downpipe looks nice! that fuel pump output fitting replaces the need to use the walbro or pump in that location? So you use the stock and this fitting?
