They are not blurry enough to hide the fact that its extreme heat damage, which is only caused by lack of oil supply.

Nothing else :ninja:

So blurry or not, the failure reason is undisputable, along with the fact this isnt the first turbo BBE has killed... its pointing directly towards a motor/oil issue, not a turbo issue

well logic would tell u that. but who can be 100% sure. other than the 2 partys. thats all i am sayin. and the vicious flaming the poor guy got.. gotta feel for the guy. even if its his own fault or not.

Whether the turbo failure was his fault or not, the fact is he disobeyed forum rules, which was as much the reason for the flaming as anything else.

1/How is anyone on this forum supposed to know where your turbo is?

2/Did you have it sent by Toll so you could track it?

3/Define "ages". i.e. exact despatch date.

4/You have already had 2nd,3rd,4th,5th,etc opinions that your bearings were toast.

5/Will you be supplying the popcorn this time or do we have to bring our own?

bbe,

Use the correct means of communication to receive your turbo.

This is where you made the mistake last time, don't make the same mistake twice.

Post as you have and no wonder slide hasn't put you on his priority list.

This thread is a little long in the tooth.

Enough.

    • 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
