looking at the engine, I'm thinking you'll be able to see the red hot turbo in your rear view mirror!

Nice coop :wink:

Do you know if the 21 / 25 drive shafts can be interchanged with the GTA? Think I have a set of 25, can't remember the origin so guess they are 25, but the CV joints look more substantial. Will have to check length and see. Just considering options..

It's more the fittings that I need to suit the existing remote takeoff plate and remote filter unit .Thanks anyway mate .
The turbo drain also needs to be routed a particular way, be well shielded and have certain angles at both ends ......
I think I will pop to Pirtek and get them to knock up what I need .Better safe than sorry wiv oil past the manifolds :twisted:

The turbo drain is bigger bore stuff and needs to be free flowing and always downhill so it's going to follow a runner all the way down to the bottom plate :evil:
The remote filter plates are something like 5/8"bsp for some daft reason ....If I take all the bits to Pirtek they will make it all up to suit .
I will try and get there tomorrow afternoon and see what they say .

Hi Lee, the exhaust shield you need is the one off the 25 I think, not sure it was in my junk pile. Fits upside down to norm (well on the right header but on the wrong side as it were).
It's the one that wraps round anyway. If you don't have, then I should have another one there.

Coming together nicely :-)
