I got a t3/t4 with a turbine housing that ive never seen before. Does anyone sell an adapter plate for the DP side? Or do i have to make this one...Also check out where the manifold bolts to, 3 bolt triangle. Ive only seen 4 bolt square t3, (not that ive seen many) . Same question here, make an adapter plate or can i buy a manifold to bolt to my d16. Here are some pics of the exact same housing as the one i have...Help.

 

pics don;t work

 

well actually they do if you copy and paste
nobody sells adapter plates, you have to make one yourself

 

tried different pics, hope that worked. OK i guess ill have to find a shop to make them then...thanks

how much (ballpark) should i expect to pay for the adapters to be made? thanks

 

Remember, their ar lots of differnt T3 styles with all kinds of differnt inlet exhaust housings, and compressor housings. Now my guess on that turbo would be maybe a Buick GN turbo?

Thanks Jeff...

 

Yo Jeff, It appears to be a 86-87 grand national t3 turbine housing, your correct on that one. For the adapter, i found one from turbonetics that mounts to my housing, but the other end adapts to a t4 manifold. how off would this be if i tried to mate it to my t3 manifold? is that even possible? im sure id have to tap new holes for the t3 to bolt onto the manifold, but would it still have a tight seal? The t4 plate looks square and the t3 plate looks rectangle (as you know) heres a pic, well its in PDF, on page 8 bottom right labeled TD04B 3to4 bolt adapter. let me know what you think...its $66 so dont wanna spend if it wont work thanks

bah, I dont have acrobat on this machine, but I know what you are talking about... Are you going to use a custom T3 manifold on your d16? or try to work with the HF/STD manifold?

You could easily make a plate for that GN turbo to adapt to a HF/STD manifold.

Post a pic of that plate if you can.

Im using a drag mani, wanna keep a/c. I cant find any plates for the GN housing,3bolt triangle pattern, if i could id just buy that and a t3 plate then smackem together and call it a day I'll see if i can find a pic somewhere else, thanks
