BLOWN TURBO. lol, best and worst outcome haha

oh well...forced to get a new, better, bigger turbo..*sigh* lol

cheers for the help guys. especially Mike :)

after warming up the car properly car drives fine...expect no boost. seriously got tailgated by camrys, corrollas, hyundais today lol...so embrassing as i couldnt do anything

hell yeh lol

so slowwwwwww......seriously takes like 15secs to get up to 100km/h on the freeway

btw all the symptoms of weird idling were due to the ecu thinking the turbo is intaking air when it isnt..so the air to fuel ratio of screwed up or something, hence the weird shit

yeh Ash im looking at Hks Gt-rs and hks gt2835 pro S kit atm

dont want no GCG turbo

Brendan, i doubt it'll be fixed b4 the 1st of june. if it's a 'cruise' cruise ill just drive my bro's car. but if it's for photoshoot i could still drive my car and stay in Karl and Rhy's pack haha :)

Yay! I'm famous on SAUWA!! I'm also the laughing stock of the forum :)

At least it'll give me a chance to beat a "turbo" car :blink:

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
