ive been searching for close to 3 hours and cant find a flow diagram or any info on how to bypass the throttle body coolant line as a feed for my gt2871r. i have the return line on the turbo already hooked up but need an input and im bypassing the deicing line so i figured i might as well solve two problems at once. which line coming from the engine is the pressurized line to the throttle body? and which do i cap off? it doesnt look like it has to be looped or am i missing something? this is on a redtop or id just loop the tb line and run the turbo coolant line from the water neck. thanx in advance

or if any1 has a suggestion for how else to do it without spending any money i.e. looping deicer and another pressure water source that would be helpfull too.

What's wrong with the stock feed off the back of the block? You wouldn't end up with a coolant line running across the front of the engine either.

You could always find someone parting out an SR for that hose coupler. Also, I'm sure with the proper P/N from our FAQ, you could order it brand new through Courtesy Nissan or West Covina Nissan.

thanx i got a look at my old motor and hooked em up yesterday. ive spent entirely to much money so far and needed a free solution. the line from the engine pointing towards the front of the engine gets capped. the other that points down and is very tough to get to can be rerouted from the throttle body and bends nearly perfectly to meet with the braided return line
