Chris: yeh thats 12,000rpm with the limiter set isnt it? hahah man what a tool that guy was...

Sl!m: top pic lol thats awesome

he hasnt been on for a while, maybe he went and got advice from Hot4s forum or something lol either that or his engine is blown up and hes trying to sue NISSAN.

ben...

I don't personally know bbe, but I believe that he means well. He just wants his car back on the road.

Give him a break guys.

While it is quite possible that it is his fault. There is the odd chance that it might not be. e.g. although 800 were fine, turbos work within such a tight tolerance, that a small irregularity in a bearing could cause it to fail at xxK rpm.

Try and held him resolve the problem, but i reckon knocking him is slack.

Edited to add extra stuff.

theres nothin wrong with that, hell ive had things go wrong on my car when it was my fault, its my fault i admit it...i stuffed somethin on my car and ended up being 700 bucks to fix but hey shit happens...i dont go complainin about the ppl who made it when ive never heard of a bad story...

Give him a break guys. It's so easy to say things when it's not your car.

I don't personally know bbe, but I believe that he means well. He just wants a working turbo. He just wants his car back on the road.

yeah but at the cost of what/who?

if he had a problem with his car then he can post like everyone else. hes trying to make someone else pay for his mistakes, he brought this all onto himself.

Why didnt he just contact slide directly instead of posting on here?

Surely when you pay that much money for a turbo and it were to genuinely fail i wouldnt go posting it on an internet forum

I do agree that bbe went about things the wrong way but. e.g. he shoulda just dealt with slide directly.

Perhaps whether it was or wasn't his fault, out of his goodwill and kindness, aaron might have fixed it anyways.

when you throw your chips at pigeons, do they or dont they come back to the same spot expecting to get fed?

same rule applies here. if every tool goes public with his own stuff ups they'll be expecting aaron to fork out for the repair. it isnt fair.

i baught a clutch from another forum sponsor on here C & B or something, it didnt last me even 3 weeks (put in wrong. my stuff up) and i simply said. I didnt do it exactly right, didnt last me at all, how much for a new disc.

I am getting a turbo off slide and making sure 200% it is in correctly because i know myself.. anything without lubrication will cause pain and damage (including sex)

aaron repeats himself many times and cant stress the fact anymore that the lines haveto be bored and drilled out, he even maint a ms paint stylez instructions.

Meh wingers theres always one that is never happy.

NEXT time why dont you buy a non turbo car, save you some money and hasseling or get a "Professional to do it" no no i dont mean yourself

A

Its funny that I have also heard of so called 'professionals' with skylines arguing exactly the same oil starvation point.

This thread is great, thanks for leaving it open :D

its hard when you work on your own car and have no one else to blame haha. What a joke. Why dont u go write your car off and blame the car, tyres, road, suspension, etc for smashing, not your crap driving skills.

he's probably IP banned by now lol

just about :D

bbe/Tosser/15yr child/Whatever

It takes you longer to make acoflamin mongrels than it takes me to suspend them.

We are waiting for your apology, as its 100% your fault that the turbo has died

So by all means, make accounts all night mate, im here for the long haul.

cheers.

Unfortunately Beej has requested his turbo to be sent back to him as is.

If he was to put another on though the same thing will happen.

I will leave it dissasembled so that he can see the damage himself.

$25 was paid to him to cover the postage of the turbo to me to have the turbo overlooked. :D

Thanks for the support guys.

Hmm, not wanting to get flamed but, seeing as no one else knows Beej personally on the forums i though i would just say that he's a mate and that i have seen his car hit 9000rpm and is still running fine (well as far as i knew). Contrary to what most people think he does know his shit when it comes to engines. I just thought i would try and stick up for Beej in this seemingly one sided dispute.

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
