thanks so much Josh.

 

I think the exchange of a petrol tank might be fairly easy for a mechanic  but its the traps for those not familar with this car is my concern and how they put existing parts back together.

Hopefully I may get a reply or two.

 

 

Two Turbo swaps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that doesn't sound good. how many km did each do.

I am just on 150K with original turbo

What was price labour ,if you don't mind me asking?

Cost me $500 to swap turbos. My original blew seals so i sourced another stock in GC to replace it. The one i got that was told was in GC was definitely not so ended up sending the one i pulled out to Hypergear for highflow. Then had the highflow installed so thats why i did it twice

Anyone will be able to swap out a fuel tank unless they are completely brainless. Don't forget to  help by running your fuel low! And depending on mileage it would be a good time to fit a new fuel pump.

Well actually I haven't met any brainless mechanics but have met many sloppy overcharging and some dishonest mechanics who didn't bother to complete the job properly.

These are the people I would prefer to avoid

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
