Rb 25 Det Turbo Uninstall ... How To ?

[mikes]

Firstly id like to extend my utmost thanks to Graham (Rio) for his stellar effort helping perform open heart surgery on my critically injured R33...

After hours of inspecting the turbo under a microscope with Lab coats on we came to the conclusion that i may possibly need some sort of High Quality Glue or Putty (whichever works best) probably the putty ! to repair what seems to be a minor problem !! see photo below...

It seems that the exhaust wheel felt like leaving its Black gum coated residence and taking a small journey (along with its 1 million particles) down to visit the cat !

If anyone out there knows a good glue/putty please let me know !

Why this has happened we dont know !! i doubt it has anything to do with the 14 psi i was pushing through there as i started a mountain climb last saturday....

so for sale i have 1 x High Flowed Turbo !! comes with free internal resin coating.

regardless

after all is said and done i have now been inducted into the BACKYARD OF PERFORMANCE as apprentice turbo inspector/Head Mechanic, and to boot i have a shitload more knowledge then i did 4 days ago ....

so to all of ya who helped me out on this one ....

double thumbs up and thanks a million....

the update is My 33 now has a new turbo installed by myself and Big Graham and is back on the road where she belongs...

Thanks a million Graham < (Legend)

good to hear it all worked out, pretty nasty turbo failure lol.

did you inspect the cat? it's probably blocked up now.
