Hey guys, I've got a trust td06 on my r34 gtt with a trust 3 bolt rear housing. On.e of the holes on the rear housing for the dump pipe screws, the thread inside it is gone. The screw spins in it endlessly, so the dump pipe is only help by 2 screws instead of 3 and is causing a exhaust leak, specially when it cold.

I spoke to a "mobile thread doctor"and was told that because turbos get hold and cold so much the structure of the metal changes and it may not be possible to fix it, he has to try and see if he can do it or not. If he can't his still going to charge me $60, and if he can fix it then its about $90 to $100.

I dont know this guy so can't say his good or bad etc, was wondering if anyone here knows of an good "thread doctor" or any other ways of fixing it?

THANKS IN ADVANCE :)

      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.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
