XS Turbo Elbow clearance?

[300Plus]

I search but only found results for the SR but I was wondering if this is worth 90 bucks and if it will hit the steering shaft? I have the stock R33 down pipe so I was think of using this elbow and notching the down pipe if needed.

I was thinking about going that way too, but the description on their site seemed a little sketchy. It looks like the small pipe wouldn't clear. So I had a shop cut me a bunch of flanges/spacers and it worked out pretty good.

anyone else?

So you use this elbow with spacers? any pics ?

I'm using the stock 02 housing with spacers. http://nissaninfiniticlub.net/...age=1

So do you think this elbow with spacers would clear? I guess I'll just have to test fit everything and go from there. but I guess no one has bought this elbow for this swap? that might tell me something

its clearance is worse than the stock elbow.

Any chance you might have any of those spacers left? I will buy them from you. None of my local shops want to do any work on my car.

If the problem with clearance is on the inside bend of the elbow, then this elbow should clear the same if I use the spacers.... wouldn't you think? I've had a few guys tell me they have it but not installed yet.

It should definitely clear if you use some spacers.

But if you use spacers with the XS, you lose the fully divorced wastegate.

Because the divider isnt long enough.

Might be able to get someone to make a longer one though.

OK Soooo it doesn't fit lol. The steering column is dead center oh the elbow (with my custom mounts) So it looks like we are going to have to make one from scratch. So JDMser I will need a flange from ya. I'll have to email you later but do u have any in stock? I'll have pics of the old not fitting up soon and then the custom one when it is done. oh also looking for 2 matching 3 inch flanges to use at the end of the elbow and beginning of the Downpipe. The Down pipe that came with my clip had a 2inch that flared out to a 3inch pipe. Thanks Guys!!

This can be easily remedied by using flanges as spacers. Get the flanges cut with a separate hole for the wastegate. Someone on the forum had a few extra flanges a while back, but I cannot remember who it was.

Take a look at this pic its off the ssautochrome website looks like a l/h drive 240 with a rb and that elbow.

I know someone who used it with the manifold that comes with that set up and it;'s not touching.

I dont know if I'm just blind or what but i dont even seen the steering shaft in that pic

[dekand]

its there you just have to zoom in to see it. but somethign looks off, it looks like the round part that goes into the firewall is not in the firewall...

i want to know if this fits cuz one of the studs on my stock one broke off and i wanna either get a 3" or imma have to fix the stocker

[300Plus]

well I've got one for sale lol. It doesn't fit with my mounts and the motor is as far back as possible. I need to find the flange for the back of the turbo so we can fab one up
