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.

    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch
