Granthem buy my silicone inlet pipe while you have yours off

100 bucks I have to get rid of it man its collecting dust

And my stocko turbs is gone coulda sold you that

So guessing that all your gaskets are fine?

Tim still thinks you're hearing things haha.

Man pedro i could have needed that turbo! if only mine shit itself a few weeks earlier.

Pedro when you pulled yours off how much end to end movement was there in the shaft? noticable, or minimal.

havnt checked them. easiest thing to check first was the compressor wheel. wasnt easy, but im not having to pull off oil and water lines!

turbo just seems to have abit too much front to back movement

Even though I have no licence and no fuel, its definitely fair to say that I have the Recovery Skyline at the moment.

PROBLEM SOLVED...

not actually the gasket, but all related in the end. The nuts on the flange holding my turbo to the manifold were basically falling off. One out of 4 i needed a spanner for, the rest were an easy finger twist off. All tightened up, of course im now spooling up quicker, noise gone, easy fix. Turbo is boosting fine.

Suprisingly the gasket held up fine and wasnt damaged.

I thought you'd already checked that? Yeah it gives a banshi scream when they come loose....happened on my last R34

[Granthem]

Nah. i was sort of checking all things over the one pull apart of my engine bay. i got to that next lol. i always suspected gasket problems, but never expected my turbo to be detaching itself from the mani!

good ending for me anyway
