Oil return line hose?
Well I go and try to do my exhaust myself and notice oil everywhere on the bottom. The belt has cut the return hose from the blower to motor almost in half
. What size is this hose? And what kind of hose will I have to buy?
---One problem after another........

If you mean the main oil return line from the SC to the engine oil pan, then the parts list calls it -4 Braided line w/ fittings.
Here's a 6ft -4 AN stainless steel braided oil line from Summit Racing:

and put it all back together the right way and uninstall the nissan cat back and install my cat back and test pipe(all by myself).I think I made pretty good time for what all I did. Ill post pics of the messed up hose tomorrow. The exhaust sounds GREAT! I love it when its just idling, got a rumble to it. Not loud crusing either. Test pipe+Greddy sp cat-back. Its only loud at low RPMS. wierd i know, but I like it. Note to everyone: DONT BUY A S/C IF YOU ARE AUTO OR YOU DONT HAVE ANY PATIENCE!!!! This whole S/C thing has taught me alot of things. Mainly patience.

No, you buy the SC for speed, but you don't drop the hammer at every light and burn out your transmission. I'm not blaming you for it, but the SC isn't the cause of the problem, it's your driving style. Some of us have SCs with auto transmissions and we haven't had problems (knock on wood).
