In depth, nice. Reason I ask is I may do that to my oil return. I already have (it's called a nipple so my Dad says) couples which are 5/8 NPT and I wanted to do what you did with the whole hose inside the nut and like screw it over the fitting. Where did you buy those from?
EDIT: Haha, it's either that or I'm sliding 3/4" hose over it and clamping it down tiiiiiiiiight.

Re: 90dx's project VX
yeah but the viable intercooler gives that big *** hole in the bumper a purpose... painting it black does what? makes it "sleeper"? LMFAO there is gonna be a big *** hole there either way... i prefer to see the intercooler cuz that looks to be what the idea was...if the sleeper look was wanted the bumper wouldnt have been cut at all...
