Hey Guys,

I have an older Tial wastegate and I am trying to find the gasget that goes between it and the manifold. Now I have been told it should have a raised beveled edge on it to help seal it but have been unable to find one can anyone help??? A workshop has been looking but so far have been unsuccesful at locating one and can only offer purchasing a new one.

As the wastegate works fine and I really don't want to have to buy a new wastegate if I don't have to.

Cheers

Mushroom

were you after that metal ring that goes into the end of wastegate or and actual gasket? if its the gasket im thinking of you can buy them from autobarn. turbosmart make 38mm sized ones, not sure bout other sizes tho.

well it bolts on to the manifold which is flat and has 4 bolt holes, so I am thinking there is suppose to be a gasget that stis between them and has a raised beveled edge to help seal it . I will take some photos later this week to expalin more if it helps

does the wastegate have the seat area machined out ???

as you can see the samll ring that inserts into the flange area between the gate and the manifold .. is this the bit you are missing?

try to speak with tial USA and see if can get that part seperate from them. as that ring seals the valve to the sides so it doesnt leak

yeah, no chance of goo working there

either have a replacement machined up on a lathe

OR

buy a new one from tial USA - or try Slide as he got my tial from japan and might be able to get the individual part

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
