Cool, it's a PITA but you only need to do it once!
I also found using 4x flat (2 at each end) washers the same thickness as the scraper rails on the front and rear cases gave a much better seal with RTV as it stops the pan distorting.
Gonna have the same issues with a T04z, the divided adaptor was for my 04z ;)
The Compressor cover on both Turbo's is made from the same casting.
I ran 3" IC pipes on both Turbos.
Why bother?
A .8ar T3 housing will perform EXACTLY the same as a .8ar T4 housing as they use the same nozzle dimension, only the flange is different...
T4 housings were made so they're a bolton for an existing T4 header.
2j Hands down, Mk3's are fat asses so you'll probably burn around about the same fuel either engine just accelerating the mass from a standstill, once rolling I doubt there's going to be a difference.
As long as your old crank isn't totally trashed on the snout you could have the shop spin it up and polish it then buy and fit an ATI Damper as an upgrade, they're TIGHT as a very tight thing on a stock crank!
Drop of 262 loctite on the bolt only + 198 ft/lbs and it'll never come off/loosen...
