whats up everyone I need some help immediatley I heard from everyone that bolting up a s14 or s15 turbo was pretty much plug and play on a s13 all you needed to do was clock the turbo alittle and use your s13 o2 housing well I took mine off today and when installing the s14 turbo it seems as if my stock s13 lines are like WAYY OFF not even close. Maybe I missed something...can anyone steer me in the right direction??

I belive you need some aftermarket oil and coolent lines,Or you could bend the stock s13 lines too.

Phase2 and others sell new braided lines for the job. According to some, you could tweak the stock lines but I would hate to kink or apply too much flex to one if you're not completely sure of what you're doing.Buy some new lines!

Alot of our sponsers have TAKA lines. They're a great replacement. Not that expensive either. Or just go to the parts store and ask for a tubing bender. They're like $5.

Only problem with using the stock lines after rebending them is the integrity of the lines is weakened.. you are way better off getting some TAKA lines.. it's going to save a big headache down the road.. just my .02

its not like youre flexing them a few feet. hell, you dont even have to bend them a few inches!

just move the stock lines to make it work, just be careful not to drop your copper banjo bolt washers behind your a/c compressor bracket!
