Well...

Fitted a new (well 2nd hand) turbo today to the stock S1 i got.

Fired it up and we still got smoke, so either this ones pucked to or the engine is...

Dosnt seem to have blow back, like took the oil cap off and nothing, yet blows smoke on idle and puffs it out when you drive it.

Gonna give it a compression test tommorow and then take it for a drive and see if it cleans up, there was alot of oil in the piping when the last turbo went so hoping its just all this coming through.

I am so pucking over this.

Well picked the Autech up from the transport depo on wednesday and it made the 200km trip home with no problems (bar the guard liners falling down because a certain panel beater didnt attach them).

Happy with everything mechanically, engine feels strong and sounds hot. The work the panel beater has done is pretty crappy. Over spray, orange peel, spots of dust under the paint, things not put back 2getha properly etc etc.

And then id like to know where the HKS coilovers it was supposed to have have gone...

havnt had a chance to get under it yet to check the rust out yet, can see some minor stuff.

It drives so nice, was everything i had hoped it would be (just not compliable). Cant wait to get it run and and tuned once its in its new home.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
