Hi, I've had a pretty bad water leak from under where the turbo is. It empties the contents of radiator in about 20mins i think. Ive taken the pipework off the passenger side and can see the turbo, but looks like its coming from somewhere on the underside of that. My question is, are there coolant hoses on that side of the engine that I should look at, or water feed for turbo? Whats the easiest way to fix? Car is R33 GTST S1 (std turbo) Any help would be appreciated, Cheers! Damo -
Hi all, So I fitted a pair of new Garrett -9 turbos to my R34 GT-R (new genuine gaskets/washers etc) and once I put it all back together & fluids back in I noticed I had coolant leaking from my rear turbo Eye bolt water line. Here a pic of what I mean: Then I remembered that I had forgotten the special note on the R32 GT-R workshop manual (couldnt find R34 GT-R's but should be the same?) that stated: I only now realised this is to make it easier to fit the eye bolt without damaging the copper crush washers etc. Naturally I'm like FFS! >,< Anyhoo long story short I got new/genuine copper crush washers and followed the above instruction and re-fitted eye bolt & both washers (easier now that it was loose). Confident that it should be right now I added coolant and bam - its still leaking!! So my question to you guys now is have I f#cked up the threaded connection of the eye bolt to turbo?? Ie - the Eye bolt thread looked fine but Im thinking the mating side? Confused as to what it could be now Any help would be greatly appreciated!
