After searching for prices, I Just bought a used Safari turbo kit off Ebay for around $950 (won the Bid), its just missing the dump pipe and oil lines. The owner upgraded the engine so sold the system. Where would i be able to find the dump pipe to suit the Safari turbo kit and also the oil / water lines to make it complete?? Iam from Fiji. My Friend in Sydney helping me out with this, so any place in Sydney where i can find these stuffs?? Thanks

Here is safari http://www.safarisnorkel.com/turbo/td42_gq/sttd42-u.htm

Though it all depends on the turbo if they have changed it over the years you can buy flanges to suit almost any turbo and have one made or make one.
Same with the oil and water lines places like pirtek or ebay sell them you just need to know what sizes you want.

Have a read of this thread below of when I did mine.

It shows the lines you need for both water and oil.

See if you can undo the plug on LHS engine behind the engine mount. If you can then you will be able to get oil feed from there.

Work out what fittings you need and use a piece of string to detirmine the length of braided lines you need and get it all from Pirtek as mentioned above.

Scotts Rods in QLD are good for the dump pipe as well.

The Safari Turbo dump pipe is part number 470-005-000 and is cast.
The Safari turbo turbine outlet flange is one I have never seen used anywhere else, but I had a look at the eBay ad and it mentions that it has a V band flange, which would not be standard as far as I know.
The V band flange would make it fairly easy to have a dump pipe made.
Do you have any pictures of the turbine side to post up here?
