Please Help.......... problem with my skyline

[commodore]

Damn you have some rip off muther****ers up in Sydney, I had the same problem on my RB20, 3 studs busted, pulled the turbo off myself - takes about 45 mins, called the local thread repair man down here in Hobart and went to work. When I got home I had 8 new studs and nuts all fitted for $80.

I agree with commodore.... they must rub their hands with glee when they see you innocents walking in!!!

Dremen...If you'r worried about the noise you'r turbo is making and you can't work it out yourself take it to a Turbo specialist and ask them to have a listen. Why waste time fiddling around with other issues like studs and bovs, and only ever take it to people who are very familiar with Skylines.

If you want to run a car like a Skyline you either work at increasing you'r income so you can pay people to work on it or you start putting together a decent tool kit and start learning how to do it yourself.I would never pay anyone $80 an hour to unbolt bits off my car.

I've owned orphen type cars all my life.... Which is why I now have a 5x8meter workshop and a huge range of tools and equipment. I'd rather stuff it up myself than pay out large sums of money to have someone else stuff it up.
