i wonder if its to do with when i took out the metal pipe supply to the turbo, i have the mk1 engine with the long pipe, this broke at the join at the back of the engine, i replaced this with a length of braided hose, i wonder if the join at the back of the engine was a restrictor of some type??? other than that i havnt seen a restrictor in the line when i had it off, could this cause the prob????

Cool surely a thrust bearings a thrust bearing, The reason i ask this is because i have a couple of hybrid T2s and as im building the T25 up i wonder if its worth using the 360` bearing from the T2? Suppose it depends how worn to the thrust collar it is

it should fit adz , i don't see any reason why it shouldn't , as far as i know the only difference between the t2 and the t25 is the compressor wheel and housing size and the way they are attached ie t2 big ass circlip and the t25 is bolt on , but i'm sure you know that anyway

normally there's a screw in fitting on the engine block that the pipe attaches to, normally you should drill them out to 2mm ,WARNING, don't go any bigger than that otherwise you'll over feed the turbo with oil and blow the seals in it,when i got my s12 some one had been playing with it under the bonnet but they didn't know what they were doing they drilled the restrictor out too much and blew the seals in the turbo , so while i had the engine out i priced up a nissan one but it was way too expensive (from memory it was about 80 quid, it was a long time ago tho) so i had a local engineering firm make one up for me it cost 15 quid , becareful tho because the bit that screws into the block has a tapered thread make sure they get this right, a bit of ptfe tape and it'll be fine
