Pulling this neo motor apart for someone atm and its got bent valves on cyln 3, the valve guides have snapped and ones missing all together, I have a feeling it broke up and went through the valve and into the chamber because theres damage on the head and piston.

see pics.. is it fixable?

also for lolz.. see the dodgy repair somone has done to the CAS bracket... wtf

lol CAS bracket repairs like that are more common than you think, I've seen and heard of plenty going around. So dodge lol.

As far as the head goes it's repairable. I don't think the seat will be overly damaged, if at all. New guides, new valves, rock and roll.

The chamber is fine.

Mine had more det damage than that on the quench pads. I skimmed the head till it hit the pads to make up for it.


Just blend the pads so they don't have any hard edges.

yeah its a DET head, DE is different.

as for what happened.. im pretty sure the broken cas bracket and subsequent dodgy repairs lead to valves being bent and snapping the valve guides. not sure how it only bent intake valves on one cyln tho

Wasn't the belt coming loose or something?

Although when that happens, usually related to a tensioner wasn't replaced properly/at all, it'll take a few more valves with it or even snap them completely. Certainly got away with it pretty well

how are the det heads and de heads different?

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
