So My Turbo Just Blew

[Jetwreck]

So it flogs the pants off a CV8 Monaro, R33 GTST (albeit mostly stock) and a few other miscellaneous cars.

It's s bit slow getting onto boost but reels them in quick if they do get ahead. Gets to redline pretty fast in 1st and I've had the rear step out on me a fraction in the dry.

Still impressed - but still trying to bleed this damn cooling system 100%

I found a good and quick way to bleed the system. Fill it as best you can and drive the car a short way, you will most definitely overheat but you need to get all the bubbles moving. Once the thermostat has opened fully you can crack the rear bleed and get all the air out. Now you need to make sure the overflow is full as when the car cools down it will fill the system automatically. Repeat the next day after filling from the rear bleed point when cold and you should be fine. Its the only way I have found without doing it a dozen times or more.

Why not just park nose-down on a slope, fill up the radiator and overflow.

Open the bleeder and run the engine for a while.

Worked for me both times I bled the system and didn't have to keep doing it.

Yeah it's getting done, just slowly.

I erection (here we go again) that I'll only needto fill one more time and we're gold

I just let it idle for half an hour with the cap off and just keep topping up as It disappears, has worked for all my cars.

it won't work man, its an m35

you have to invert them and bleed it from the sump

heeeeyyyyyy! your learning

yes it is a lot different to bleeding my RB's!

lol.

That might just work...

[lilcrash]

Your right Ive only done it on the following engines - 3tgte,18rg, 2tg, 5sfe, ls1, rb25,18rc, awu, didn't realize there was a big airlock in the m35 point sorry.

[wolverine]

The M35 guys are sensitive because they picked the uptight upper-class girl.

We chose the cheap loose & easy slapper.

[lilcrash]

lmao i think they just wish they had bought a car with as much style as a c34, the m35 looks more like a childs toy or maybe a strange sex toy. although that would explain the childish things they say some times the manual transmissoin makes the c34 more enjoyable anyway.

good to see someone getting results from a turbo replacement, cant wait til i can drive mine again.

Should have found similar issues with the ls1 just quietly

Uptight maybe, but get her in her element and she'll rock your socks harder and leave you with a bigger grin than some cheap & loose slapper.

Love the comparisons though

lol... obvious troll is obvious.

lol... obvious troll is obvious.

Isn't lilcrash the same guy that had a standard C34 faster than a Typhoon or something and was going to do a 400m to show us his standard C34 13 second run....I wonder what ever happened with that!!!!....or am I mistaken and it was someone else.

[lilcrash]

No that's me. I still don't understand what is so un believable about beating a typhoon. It's just a falcon. I supose you think v8 commodores are quick too.

And my comments were only jokes anyway, I'm actually growing fond of the m35 shape.

Nothing beats the 260rs for looks btw!

back in the day when I bought my stagea series1 C34's were 20k+, series2 autos were 27k+ and manuals over 30k.

the M35 model wasnt available.... this was 6yrs ago.

nowdays any stagea model is very affordable - simply depends what rocks your boat.
