Steve, Nah, was hoping to do them first, but my stock turbo died:(, might be due to running 17psi:D Will still do the internals, once I've paid for all the turbo stuff:D

You know some of us are coming across for the JMS drift day in Adelaide? Would be nice to catch up with you:D

single would be easier .....is it more laggy or less gonig single .... i get confused :D oh well im jealous nice shiny new more powerful turbo would be awesome!!

No probs :) just dont backseat drive and nobody will get hurt :)

btw paul my mum says she hasnt had 'the pleasure' from you yet :) haha

i'll do mine monday :) not that its goin to be anything thrilling

Mum told me off to leaving my parking fines on final notice - ihow wa si to know it reflect son her credit rating *shrugs*

not bad thanks - my brakes are fixed :) one of my brake lines were snapped completely in two but sat on such a way on the caliper that i didnt leak fluid too bad and imstill alive so its all good ...... guys kept on repeating what a lucky girl i was!!

whats the job for Liz?

Its funny how all the best laid plans can change in an instant isnt it:D How bizaar that a stock turbs would shit itself at 17psi...hehehe - as long as you had fun killing it.

    • 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?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
