What has happened???????

Please need the info????

Mike

The turbo's are off the car again, my less than a year old rebuilt turbo's are fcked. The shop who did them is accepting no responsibility and wholly believes the problem was caused by being overboosted! Even though I dont even have a boost controller! Had second inspection and symptons are similar to overboosting, BUT he KNOWS that steel wheeled GTR turbo's can handle 17-18psi easily :rofl: So, yeah dont know what to do just yet. Turbo's are in a million pieces and will be just over $2grand to repair them. I don't wanna spend the money but a set of HKS GTSS turbo's are not much over $3grand on greenline ;)

Jono

well this is no skyline..but thought it would be worth a mention!!!!!

Old VK Commodore...bit arse chormies....and wait for it

.................................wait a little longer

A HUUUUGGGEEEEE Veilside wing....

Well I saw the wing long before the car and thought it would be shaolin!!!!

oh god, I laughed so damn hard..

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
