Were to tap oil feed line for ka24de??????

[kpc_0721]

Hey im starting to peice together a turbo kit for my 95 ka24de and wanted to know were I am supposed to run my oil feed line for the turbo? Pleassssse let me know how you guys all went about doing your oil lines because I dont really know what lines are best to tap into and I would rather listen to someone who has worked with turbo ka's before unlike me. PICS would be awsome and make everything way easier for me so if anyone has any pics or can post some then please do.

You run your oil feed lines from your oil filter plate. Its got a little cylindrical plastic coated sensor thats called an oil sending unit. You take that out, and put in your line.

As a sidenote, the post at the top of this page that yells at you READ HERE FIRST, and GREAT INFO HERE, answer both of your questions much better than i did. Please read all that info, it will answer pretty much all your DIY turbo ka questions.

Next to the oil pressure sending unit, there is a little allen head plug (at least on mine) I was wondering if you could use that for an oil feed? It's not what I did... I tapped the backside of the oil filter thing for 1/8" NPT.

You can use the oil pressure sending unit I believe.

Thats what I did, but you can get a fitting for BPT and then go to a 1/8" NPT T and run the line that way. Be very careful though, I just found out my stainless line was dangerously close to my starter posts, and luckily didn't burn my car to the ground.
