KA-T Coolant for turbo? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Trying to figure out where to feed/return coolant for my new GTX i'm going to throw on. I'll be using -6AN line. Apparently there is a port on the driver side of the block that can be used? Does anybody know the thread pitch so i can purchase an adapter fitting?

Probably use that for feed and return to the heater core lines.

Here are two examples of using the throttle body lines:

This how I did mine. Haven't toasted the turbo yet.

Throttle body coolant ports off the intake manifold will be the easiest. For a cleaner setup, you can run off the coolant drain on the driver side, thread pitch is 1/4npt. Use aluminum or steel for the fitting. For the coolant return, you can run off one the TB feed on the heater return, or if you're not running heater you can just run off the heater return.
