the only prob with that is the 3071 inlet does not allow enough room for it to be fitted, i e-mailed ben and he said he can fit one inline to the hose so will go for that and send mine back monday, also i have asked if i can get an inline filter before to stop the tiny hole getting blocked up - think this may be the most expensive hose i have ever bought:roll:
btw the s14 banjo is only 0.080 so we would need another restrictor still;-)

just been checking mine and there is a restrictor inside the hole on the oil inlet of the turbo its about 1mm in size on the edge of the threads, also i checked my banjo as i ordered it new from erics and its a s14 one with a restrictor in it also, so i am prob going to leave it as it is now after all this faff:der:

I think I'm just going to go with the hoses from Ben.... I have fitted them to the turbo and it's all ready, manifold in place, ready to bolt on to head and plumb in.

Just wondering, is a banjo bolt with a 0.050" hole good enough? that comes with my turbo hoses kit. Or should I really get a 0.035?
Here's what I got (good price too!) http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=270267539980

This is starting to get to me now.
Bought an oil inlet restrictor and a different oil feed pipe to fit my gt2871r but it's no good.
There's not enough room to attach oil feed pipe... :doh:
I'll need to try to source a restricted banjo bolt and revert back to the other hose solution oil feed pipe.

oh dear, are you any good at brazing?
Those steel pipes are easily modified, , if your quick with a hot torch you can do it without heating the rubber pipe,
Other than that wouldn't a brake pipe nipple fit with some copper pipe to rubber pipe and a jubilee clip??
I know there's many different thread sizes of the nipples there must be one that fits and you can choose the type of face you want, any local garage can help i'm sure?

I have removed all four gaskets now....
I think I would like to get the OE exhaust manifold ground at a small angle (2deg) which would throw the turbo out loads.
2. Oil feed.... strap an Italian or Spanish person up ront with a hand pump...... (sorry it was on the news 29/01/09)
