you sir are a wizard, the wonderful wizard of auz....................farrk makes me want to finish my 4agte conversion

Boosted it up the driveway this arvo... Proceeded to blow the bearings in the turbo... Yay.

 

can only put it down to me getting dirt in the turbo housing at one stage of me taking the turbo off, and blocking the oil feed off.

Ouch. Going rebuild or putting something else on?

ʞ©$ɟ man...That sucks big time..

I just read this thread and was getting such a hard on. Now I'm flaccid as :(

 

Hope you get her sorted soon!

Shaft play or blowing smoke?

Shaft is just flapping around in the housing, shut it down as soon as I heard it but it looks like its ʞ©$ɟed the compressor wheel.. Which is a billet item and is one of only two ever made.

 

Have it boxed up with GCG's address on it already. This ones gunna sting the wallet :(

And its not blowing any smoke what so ever..

ouch man

:(

fark sorry to hear about the turbo.

did sound intense on the test drive man.

Video right before the bearings shit.. Was running perfect, absolutley loving it I was, at least I know what it's going to go like once its finished, so my motivation is through the roof, was in the shed for 14 hours today working on the car, had it basically stripped back to a shell again and re did all the fuel system, fixed all wiring up, did a back yard wheel alignment and a shit heap more

 

won't let this minor set back stop me
