okay so im getting an s15 spec r turbo for my s13, but everywhere ive researched and read I feel like ive gotten different answers, from what ive read the things that are different are:

Turbo intake tube is different
Stock t25 oil drain tube wont work
lines are a PITA (but I have ss lines anyways)
I believe someone said something about the turbo elbows being different as well?

any know of anything im missing I just wanna make sure I get everything before I have my car down for 2 weeks waiting for parts. like I said ive searched I just wanna see if anyone here has done it and can maybe help me out, thanks guys!

Compressor inlets are the same, but you'll need a clocking adapter for the s15 turbo. Compressor outlet is shorter on the s15 turbo and will also need a clocking adapter. T25 oil drain will work if you slot the holes. You could possibly get away with no clocking adapters if you're willing to cut up the pipes some and maybe use different couplers.

If its a ball bearing turbo, you'll need an 0.030" size oil restrictor.

#1 for intake tube, get a reclocking kit ( found on frsport )
#2 t28 oil drain is approx 30$ or elongulate the holes for mounting
#3 your ss lines will do but don't forget the 0.030" oil restrictor that mounts on the turbo I beleive the spec r is dual bb, if I am wrong get a 0.062" restrictor
#4 the t25 elbow will bolt up to the t28 and will work

Everything I got:
Turbo
-s15 compressor inlet
-s15 compressor outlet
-s15 t28 oil drain
-cc's steel braided lines
-z32 Maf
-550cc injectors

All I need is to send the ecu to enthalpy and wire the z32 other than that everything I bought has worked
