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..

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
