Removing Turbo Out R33

[aquariuz6]

Hi guys,

I'm at the point where I'm starting to realise why don't I give it a go since I don't like paying someone else to do it.

I thought its about time I did something to the car on my own, besides washing the thing.

I have a link here, have been trying to figure out if there are more parts to do or is this it?

Sounds simple enough if you have a spare day available.

If I were to follow this, I can't go wrong right? Hopefully not.

I wanted to see what you guys think.

Cheers,

Bernard

Use WD40/CRC on the nuts and bolts before you try to undo them, its easy as long as you have a fairly good tool kit. Some nuts and bolts are bl00dy hard to get to and/or get a decent swing on, be patient, take your time. When reassembling use nickel or coppercote on all the nuts and bolts etc.

Yea I thought I would need a lot of WD40.

I'll get started today... the good old long weekend.

Hopefully my old man's tools are good enough. If not then I guess I've gotta scab the tools off a friend of mine.

One thing though your right about is those really tight spaces... I remember doing my dumpipe... gave up because one, I broke a spanner and two I couldn't reach the bolt. (Didn't have much tools that day) hehehe.

its an easy job

took me and my oldman under 30mins to remove the stock turbo (i've done it a few times now)

i found a few things made my job easy

removing the dump pipe from the front pipe (so its still connected to the turbo when i take it out) <-- of course you cant do this if you have a front and dump in 1

take your time, because i didnt reuse my lines the last time i took my trubo off. i just remove all the from the turbo and then remove the turbo and took off the lines after the turbo was out of the car!

its good fun ohh and remember to get new copper washers as i didnt and well i had abit of problem with oil leaking hehehe
