if its an early engine (feed from inlet side of block) you'll need to get a custom one made up. if its a late engine (feed from turbo side of the block) just use an s13 one

You'd be best to use the S13 piece that goes in the block too if you want to use an S13 line as you will find it rather tight otherwise.

S13 200sx's have an elbow on the oil supply to the turbo. It is screwed into the block.

Right ok, ive ripped out the old oil and water feed. but being a total novice, which is which, im guessing the water is the one with the ringed end?
And what a sod to get off, i tried to undo the joing bolt and it twisted the tube, so now it looks like ive got a fiddely bolt to undo under the intake. great.
