Great photos!! I have steel braided hoses for my oil scavenge - much better look if nothing more.
what are you going to do about your oil pressure sensor? that was mounted where youre tapping your oil??
If you're gaskets arent installed yet I sprayed mine with copper spray - might be something to consider
I'm still working on that PS fitting/bend mod for you - I do have a second hard pipe which I might photo shop...assuming you still need a little guidance on that?

There is a bolt above the oil filter that I drilled/tapped for the pressure sensor. I'll snap a pic of it. hopefully there is enough clearance for it. As far as the PS line, the guy welded the pipe coming off the turbo and it looks like it may clear it? I'll have to see once I get it back in the Z. From what ive read most people just bend it out of the way. One issue I see it the driver side turbo charge line. It seems to be hitting the idler puller for the AC compressor. Doesnt seem to be a good fit there, and my oil return line is right there in the way too of course. I put a 90 on it but it still looks tight. Ill snap some more pics. Once I mounted the sandwich plate I had more issues with clearance from the feed lines. I'm going to have to put 90s on them off that T so I can get all those lines to work. Theres alot of stuff going on in that small area.
As far as the spray, I got some of the permatex ultra copper in a tube and put a light film on my gaskets. That should hopefully give me a good seal!

not much room in there is there?! I cant wait to fight with it
im thinking about removing the ac compressor and all that for added clearance on this pipe...where is this bracket I circled supposed to bolt to? Mine isnt remotely close to anything.

my AC went away - it clears things up very well...I'm tempted to look into a electrical pump driven power steering system...I'd love to clear up the passenger side.

yeah - pain in the nuggets...I'd love to eliminate my PS pump ... not sure what those JB welded nuts are but I would just plug them.

Theres a tab on the front of your upper oil pan that it lines up with. Its the flat one with the sharpie mark.
This pipe should connect to a small cast pipe that then connects to the driver side turbo outlet.
Plug those holes, it was most likely for meth injection. You may be able to use one for the boost ref to the wastegate since it is pre-throttle body.

thanks cux, my pipe wasnt close enough to mount to that, I just made my own bracket for it. If I used that tab the pipe would hit the pulley. I just got some bolts and plugged those holes...I also ordered new filters to replace my mushroom of death filters. Went with the aem dry flow
