Custom Oil lines for turbo

Alright, engines hate me....

Made a custom line for my turbo - braised pipe into my banjo fitting and flange for my custom oil line to the turbo on my corona turbo, was working well for about 2 months, but went for a drive the other day and the $^Q#@ thing started pissing out with oil...

Where would i go to get a custom braided line made up using my banjo fitting and turbo flange?

Been told GSS does (Greenlane Speed Shop). But expensive.

I got mine from Al @ Driven Performance as a kit, but ended up modifying the feed (too long) and getting a whole new braided drain made. Drain was rubber in the kit, wouldnt last 5 mins.

brazing isnt a good idea on turbo feeds,
to much vibration and pressure involved, doesnt take much to crack and leak.

if interested i can fabricate boh oil feed and drain, im in pakuranga

GSS are fairly pricey, but worth the money. Top quality componentry.

Akane will atest to them ripping him a new one.

I have used GSS a few times. Was about 70$ for a oil feed for the 4AGE.
Now use Alert Motorsport.
