Please help me identify parts on my turbo.
Ok, i'm studying this turbo scene. Well I picked up my Nissan T3 turbo, and I was just going to make sure I know what goes where.
This little fitting on the turbo is a coolant line, correct?
Next I was wondering where A, B, and C go. 'B' appears to be a big threaded hole. Whattup with that? I know A and C are for oil, but which is the supply and which is the return? I was thinking that 'C' should go into the T tap that I will have in the oil pressure sense, and 'A' will go to the oil pan. I have no flanges for these, where is the best place to get them?
Thanks

Re:Please help me identify parts on my turbo.
The fitting you're pointing at looks like you're wastegate vacuum line..
A is your oil return line.. (Goes to you oild pan..)
B is your coolant return.. (Which really isn't directional, so it could be your feed..
C is your oil feed line.. (Comes from your oil pressure sensor. The oil lines are VERY direction, better get those right)
Turbo Out goes into your intake manifold (hopefully through an intercooler)

what ------- nissan did that come off of?
Picture one is not coolant, that normally goes to the internal wastegate actuator nipple, or you can plug it and use the intake manifold.

Re:Please help me identify parts on my turbo.
you did a good job askin the question with pictures and all. 
that turbo is impressive.....
makle sure to rotate the center section by loosening the bolts and twisting to get your oil feed and return striaght up and down cause the return is gravity feed.
have a good one;

Re:Please help me identify parts on my turbo.
hehe the funny thing is. I paid $250 for this turbo on ebay. The guy said it was a T3/T4. Obviously it's not. I'm kinda ticked about it. But I will keep it. I'm still working with the seller to get $100 back. So hopefully that happens.
There is no in and out play, very very minimal side to side play.
The brass elbow for the wastegate actuator....I should just plug it because I will be using an External wastegate correct?
