im scrappin around for any dumb way to save a few bucks on my turbo beater, i think i can rig the rest of the lines with whats already hangin off the turbo, just need a feed

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

You'd still need to get some 1/8 NPT plugs for the spots you don't use, an NTP to BSP adapter for your dummy light (unless you switch to a domestic one)

and everything else. I dont see how you'd save any $$ with that.

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

glowshifts stuff seems to be pretty good, im running a few of their gauges and so are a couple of my friends. That adapter wont really make things cheaper, but it does make running the lines easier.

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

i bought one, it leaked like a bitch. i had to honda bond the hell out of it for it to stop.

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

ny freind used on of those on his gsr and it worked good. it still hasnt leaked after like three months of use. just be careful when you change the filter, we almost ripped the oil lines off

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

That's a great price for that unit. Looks like a knock-off of the GReddy part, but with NPT threads instead of GReddy's BSPT threads. Should work fine for running all NPT stuff. SlowS13 is right about re-using your stock sending unit. It's BSPT, so you'll need to use it only in the stock location.

why would i need to mess with my stock sending unit at all? its above the oil filter and that doesnt reall look like its too big i dont think it would be a problem, i think it even comes with plugs to plug off what you dont use.


did dudes friend that leaked bad put a gasket between it and the block? i doubt it comes with one, you could probly rip one off a old oil filter

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

so theres no way this thing could lower your oil pressure or anything dangerous? do civics have 18mm or 20mm oil filter threads? because they sell both

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

I seen them, I am getting one for the DOHC sold my old cobblefuck brass pain in the ass to make and find all the fittings thing. Seems like it is easyer if your going to use steel line for your oil lines

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

looks good to me. i might get one too

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

can you use it as an oil return line?

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

If you get on Maxspeed-motorsports.com you won't find the filter sandwich pictured. I think they ripped off a higher end company's name.

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

No, return lines go to the oil pan.

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

sure

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

Well, with that sandwich there's no reason to yank the stock BSPT pressure switch. But, for those that want to do it the old skool way:

Autozone used to carry a mixed set of Sunpro oil fitting adapters for running oil aftermarket oil pressure gauges - Advanced Auto stopped carrying them 4 years back. You could find the correct BSPT to NPT adapter in that package, but they had to be torqued correctly otherwise they cracked. I used to run one of those adapters to a brass Homeboy Depot 1/8" NPT<-->1/4" flare fitting, and run el cheap Parker -4 AN steel line to the fitting, and T'd the OEM pressure switch off on the firewall, and ran another -4 AN line from the T to the turbo. There's a 45 vs 37 degree mismatch between the seats, but since the brass adapter was soft it never leaked. Good stuff.

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

JUST GO WITH THE T THATS FO SURE WAY

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

That golden eagle oner looks dope!! Looks a hell of a lot easier that trying to pull the oil sensor off of a Honda with 140k miles on it :-X :-X

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
 

yeah i was not thinking correctly when i said that.

Re: another whos used this ebay crap before
