Could be for coolant some turbos have a coolant line to cool em down aswell .

hope this helps

yeh now i found there are 4 holes in the center so is it most likly water cooled and oil lubricated turbo (witch I'm guessing now)

It is indeed water cooled and oil lubricated. But I think youre pointing to the oil drain.

 

 

Youre not buying an eBay turbo are you?

no that one isnt the one, i already have mine and i got it from a guy from nsw that owns an AE86

this is mine its a GT17 garret

That would be the oil drain back into the sump....

Ahk good good. The fitting with two bolt holes is oil drain. Banjo bolts are for the water feed and return and the oil feed should be opposite the oil drain.

so obvicly you have to have the drain on the bottom???

 

this is sooo making me sound dumb!

Yep drain at the bottom and above the oil level in the sump...

and with the water can i just run a t junction off say the heating system? or were would be somwere suitable?

Heater system should be fine. Just make sure that youve got one on the pressure side and one on the low pressure side so it flows.

and that gold elbow peice in the first pic is that for the oil pickup line?

Probably. Tis the only piece left. Id say you'll have to do something custom anyway.

cheers for all the help this may be :lock:
