Ive searched USDM and JDM. CA18DET and CA18ET.. I can't find anything. The local Nissan dealership contacted Japan and they cant seem to locate any part numbers or anything. Does anyone have one?

if push comes to shove, i had to get a regualr brass fitting with teh correct pitcha nd diameter etc, and brass weld it up and drill the correct size hole in it for the turbo you are using, (1/8", 1/16" whatever restrictor you are supposed to use)

i did that and mine is working perfect. i tested the pressure with a gauge to ensure i was getting enough flow but not too much presure...

They found that part number. It's $13 but it could take MONTHS to get in from Japan according to them. Im pretty much down to the wire here. Not only do I need that restrictor, I also need a turbo line as well. I had another question related to this problem. Are the T3/T4 lines (the input of the threads and whatnot) compatible with the T25 turbo? I managed to find something that can help me on eBay.

The sooner the response the better. Thanks =)

Djliquid were you looking at the Forcedfab oil line kits? if so email me, thats my stuff,or hit me up on aim, Slw240sx.

i can work with you and get you what you need for the The kit to fit your turbo. im actually putting in a order this week for some parts to make the CA,SR specific kits so i can market them more directly to other shops aroud the country, this 100$+ for oil line kits is freakin ridiculous

i probably didnt do it correctly. i just tapped out the block to 1/8th NPT and put a 90deg 1/8th to -4 AN fitting in there and attacted my -4 SS line to it. if if needs a restrictor, get the ATPturbo.com restrictor, tap the block out put that in and get a -4 oil line. if you need a oil line i have a 36" lines for cheap.

picture of my line, probably should get a restrictor.

What's the correct oil restriction size for the T25? 0.035 or 0.060
