Chris: yeh thats 12,000rpm with the limiter set isnt it? hahah man what a tool that guy was...

Sl!m: top pic lol thats awesome

he hasnt been on for a while, maybe he went and got advice from Hot4s forum or something lol either that or his engine is blown up and hes trying to sue NISSAN.

ben...

I don't personally know bbe, but I believe that he means well. He just wants his car back on the road.

Give him a break guys.

While it is quite possible that it is his fault. There is the odd chance that it might not be. e.g. although 800 were fine, turbos work within such a tight tolerance, that a small irregularity in a bearing could cause it to fail at xxK rpm.

Try and held him resolve the problem, but i reckon knocking him is slack.

Edited to add extra stuff.

theres nothin wrong with that, hell ive had things go wrong on my car when it was my fault, its my fault i admit it...i stuffed somethin on my car and ended up being 700 bucks to fix but hey shit happens...i dont go complainin about the ppl who made it when ive never heard of a bad story...

Give him a break guys. It's so easy to say things when it's not your car.

I don't personally know bbe, but I believe that he means well. He just wants a working turbo. He just wants his car back on the road.

yeah but at the cost of what/who?

if he had a problem with his car then he can post like everyone else. hes trying to make someone else pay for his mistakes, he brought this all onto himself.

Why didnt he just contact slide directly instead of posting on here?

Surely when you pay that much money for a turbo and it were to genuinely fail i wouldnt go posting it on an internet forum

I do agree that bbe went about things the wrong way but. e.g. he shoulda just dealt with slide directly.

Perhaps whether it was or wasn't his fault, out of his goodwill and kindness, aaron might have fixed it anyways.

when you throw your chips at pigeons, do they or dont they come back to the same spot expecting to get fed?

same rule applies here. if every tool goes public with his own stuff ups they'll be expecting aaron to fork out for the repair. it isnt fair.

i baught a clutch from another forum sponsor on here C & B or something, it didnt last me even 3 weeks (put in wrong. my stuff up) and i simply said. I didnt do it exactly right, didnt last me at all, how much for a new disc.

I am getting a turbo off slide and making sure 200% it is in correctly because i know myself.. anything without lubrication will cause pain and damage (including sex)

aaron repeats himself many times and cant stress the fact anymore that the lines haveto be bored and drilled out, he even maint a ms paint stylez instructions.

Meh wingers theres always one that is never happy.

NEXT time why dont you buy a non turbo car, save you some money and hasseling or get a "Professional to do it" no no i dont mean yourself

A

Its funny that I have also heard of so called 'professionals' with skylines arguing exactly the same oil starvation point.

This thread is great, thanks for leaving it open :D

its hard when you work on your own car and have no one else to blame haha. What a joke. Why dont u go write your car off and blame the car, tyres, road, suspension, etc for smashing, not your crap driving skills.

he's probably IP banned by now lol

just about :D

bbe/Tosser/15yr child/Whatever

It takes you longer to make acoflamin mongrels than it takes me to suspend them.

We are waiting for your apology, as its 100% your fault that the turbo has died

So by all means, make accounts all night mate, im here for the long haul.

cheers.

Unfortunately Beej has requested his turbo to be sent back to him as is.

If he was to put another on though the same thing will happen.

I will leave it dissasembled so that he can see the damage himself.

$25 was paid to him to cover the postage of the turbo to me to have the turbo overlooked. :D

Thanks for the support guys.

Hmm, not wanting to get flamed but, seeing as no one else knows Beej personally on the forums i though i would just say that he's a mate and that i have seen his car hit 9000rpm and is still running fine (well as far as i knew). Contrary to what most people think he does know his shit when it comes to engines. I just thought i would try and stick up for Beej in this seemingly one sided dispute.

    • This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.
    • That's the thing, they still add it and it makes fuel cheaper, implying adding 10% of it drops the cost of 91 by what, 5c a liter? I remember when it was barely half the price of 98. Because you know, 85% of what is in the fuel is way cheaper than 91 fuel is by volume.
    • Auto electricians that do repairs on automotive AC systems can source service kits. I don't know where they actually source them. I do know that there is one available for the R34 comp that I would need it for. If you have to pay someone to dismantle, clean and do needed repairs and fit kit contents, then you'd probably end up spending a good fraction of the cost of a new one. I would not be paying for that, because I would be doing it myself. My mechanic (bro-in-law) will happily source what is needed. Back in the day (like in the 80s and 90s), rebuilding an AC compressor was the standard approach, same as for starter motors, alternators, etc, because new replacements were v. expensive. After the China manufacturing boom and the rise of the disposable approach to everything, people just started throwing broken/worn stuff away and not rebuilding things.
    • Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.
    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
