OK so that old Nissan turbo was leaking oil from the turbine side probably due to a worn shaft piston ring. I needed another turbo but didn't want to spend to much and still needed to keep a/c and ps. I had some bad luck buying old turbos so I went for a CHING CHONG MIAOW!
The turbo was being sold for 135 but had an option to make an offer so I offered 130 and it was excepted. It came with an oil supply line and restrictor and for six dollars more you can get an oil return fitting with it. When I received the turbo I was very surprised to find something else in the box, and no it wasn't little grains of rice. It was a 1/2 in downpipe flange!
heres the oil supply and return fittings
and here is the turbo with part of the downpipe I made.
I made this downpipe with my new (to me) lincoln weld-pack hd 100

I then went down to parkers and spent about $50 bucks to complete my oil return line I got an aluminum bulkhead fitting assembly, a -10an 90 and one foot of blue hose. I used some hondabond on the bulkhead and really cranked down on it so it wont leak.
