Fit your airbox and snork to suit 4" and run your 4" plumbing all the way to the turbo and then a reducer onto the turbo. You might need to swap rhe reducer for the new turbo if at all, the rest will be perfect.
Staying with the CC top mount mate? You have spent the money so cant imagine you swapping it out.
The lift pump really is a bonus as the fuel pump relies on vacuum a lift pump feeds the pump. Such a small inbestment it was a no brainer mate.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

If your taking everything to Andy to fit just get him to take it to lilydale mufflers & towbars. Only a minute away and are really good, will be able to do a dump pipe no probs. If you need anything stainless between airbox & turbo can do that 2. .

Hey Hodge, what airbox you running currently and are you changing / upgrading? I wouldn't bother running 4" to HT18 I would just do it all together when the turbo goes in, likely it won't line up from old to new and will be a waste of time/ money to do twice, that's what happened with mine from Safari to Borg Warner. Also Andy usually takes off most of Jan but probably good to get in once he's nice and refreshed hopefully

I'll definitely be keeping the big cooler. Bit of coin involved in that, so it's staying, and it definitely does the job.
I guess I'll look at the inline pump too. That's one of the things that can be added any time so, not a priority.

Ok cheers. I'll ring him up and ask if he'd be happy to arrange something like that.
Taking it there is just something I'm toying with now. When he returns I guess, he may or may not be booked out well into Feb or beyond. BUT, I am in no great rush.

Currently just a factory box with a Safari snorkel.
As Darren mentioned above reason I'd like to do this prior is to break the job into portions... I'm not fussed if I have to replace a hose or a reducer when the new snail goes on.
I'll catch up with Darren soon and I'll have a look and a chat about his one up close and personal.
A little part of me wants to attack this my self. I know a lot of it is just nuts and bolts.
My main concern or those water and oil hoses. If I could get my head around them. Can't see much of it being rocket science.
But I'll see !!

Yeah have a go for sure Hodgey sure you'll be right, will definitely be a SUBSTANTIAL saving doing stuff yourself. Once you have the turbo you'll be able to workl out fittings plus look @ Dazs or another TD and work it where stuff needs to go then do a Pirtek visit. .

Yeah I am definitely keen on attacking this . As i am in no rush, I'll have ample time to do research, gather bits etc... and grow larger knackers to do the job lol.
Been reading a lot this morning about this turbo. Old mav on the other forum has some pretty decent tech info on this too.
Also found nissannewbys thread too from last year. Lot of good info and photos giving a clear idea on whats going on.

Dumb question ...
Is it possible , that a fitting kit, mainly oil and water ins and out hoses , from another turbo would suit the Borg Warner. Or are the threads & sizes of fittings unique to BW , hence why a a custom assembly of parts has to be bought and made ?
I notice the Mamba and Kinugawa turbos have pre built kits for a TD42 everywhere.
Example :
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F172736554894
Also this is the best price . I've found this far for the turbo.

Can you park your car up in the shed for a couple of days Hodgey?
If so then the best way to do it is to mount your turbo and create your own lines using wire like a coat hanger with the best path to each feed/drain.
Then with your old turbo lines, new wire paths and the New turbo take all that into Pirtek and get them to create it all for you.
You should be able to utilise some of your old lines to save $ but just see what they say mate.
They'll match threads etc and work their wizardry!
My pic below pretty much shows all of the lines.

Thanks Andy!
With any luck I'll be able to slot it into our diesel mechanics workshop for a few days as Pirtek is literally 7 doors down in Tullamarine.
It's a lot for me to swallow as ive never had a go at something like this.
So the most detrimental part is that oil drain right ? Has to be easy flowing with minimal bends or kinks to dispose of oil.
This was your initial down fall???
I have been reading the huge EFR6758 thread on the other forum and fark me dead, my head hurts.
Maybe I'm looking into it way too deeply lol.
