gu factory turbo oil feed bolt?

Post by BeNoS »

hey all in the process of refitting a gu turbo setup onto motor.
anyway half the bits were there and some bits are not. anyway main things missing were intake piping and oil lines to turbo.
ive got all the pieces coming bar the banjo bolt that goes into the block for the oil feed line.
my main question is what is the thread size for the bolt and does anybody know where i could get one.
i have a feeling its a bsp thread but the bung that was in it is just a standard metric but the thread is a bit butchered so id rather find out for sure.
who ever had a go at this car the first time clearly had no idea what they are doing haha.

could be wrong, but it is what you think, bsp. Just remember to get the "tapered version" (bspt) go to any reputable enzed/hose fitting place. I can tell what a 3/8 vs 12 mm is, but I reckon taking the item off and walking in with it, and letting em' size it up wins hands down!

i am pretty sure all the banjo bolts are metric and not tapered and i think the pitch is 1.5 but to get the correct one you could just go to nissan and be assured its correct
