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.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
