When I fitted my gt28 the standard hose did not fit. I bodged a hose to fit but with a kink in. This does not seem to affect the car at all even at full boost.

Ideally I want to get a hose that fits correctly but how do I go about this? Its got an extended part from the turbo at a funny angle, so a standard one has no chance of fitting :(.

Cheers

Get some pics up mate, by the sounds of it you will need to use silicone bends and hose jointers as necessary

If the outlet adaptor has 3 bolts the 200sx straight adaptors may fit. Like brigsy says get some pix up:D

Just rotate the comp housing more and fit a different adaptor to the cover like this
