No different turbo mate. The turbo on these are unique and not fitted to anything else AFAIK. Do you really want a 2nd hand turbo anyway? Get yours rebuilt and have peace of mind that it won't blow up anytime soon. my 2c.

Lol garret made the turbo specifically for the Stagea.

Why are you skimping out? Just like everyone has said, get a hiflow. You are going to end up having to do it again

Not trying to skimp out but free. Vs 1600

Your welcome to try to pull it out and try yourself.

Otherwise, you've been told it doesn't fit. What else do you want mate? Seriously- people have been quoted 4-5k to do the Turbo swap in the early days from workshops The guys doing it on here do it for the community. They hold down other jobs, and have families that they like to see too.

If you can't afford to run the car then sell it, and buy a Excel. Sorry mate, but we've given you all the options.

This I understand....

My money got nothing to do with you....

It's quite simple that I'm looking for the best option for me....

If it takes my a month to do it so be it

No point Aaron, he has made his mind up that we are retarded internet dwellers, let him find out the hard way...

Honestly, good luck with it Steve, your mechanic mate is going to hate you after this... :P

    • Adjusting the idle screw is usually (emphasis on usually) just covering up deeper issues. Stuff like the cold start valve not closing properly. Throttle shaft seals on the way out. Coolant temp sensors getting out of spec. Coolant temp sensors especially can be a bear to diagnose because they can fail subtly. My dad just spent weeks chasing down his high idle. He cleaned the coolant temp sensor and everything but the resistance curve just drifts over time and if it's been 20+ years they also get super slow to respond as well. Has a massive effect on fuel economy as if it's off the ECU is going to run richer and command high idle for far longer than it should otherwise.
    • How old is the battery, it's more likely your battery is on its way out.
    • I reckon you'd get 90% off. My washer doesn't get between spokes very well. Haha! I love my Gerni!  Argh! Steam cleaning has its place for sure.
    • Hey all, I did a voltage test with the car (video attached) not running for 3 days. And here is some interesting stuff: - Battery voltage is 12v (I had the key in the ON position) - Drops to 9.76v while cranking then quickly goes up to 14.5v - You will notice there was a sorta slow start but not as slow as it usually is. - Idle surprisingly was better at just over 1,000rpm instead of 1,100 rpm. - I turned on the A/C, radio and headlights in the video and the voltage remains the same - I haven't cleaned the grounding wires on the chassis yet, that's next. - Battery drops to 12.6v when I turn off the car and wait a bit Seems like I might have a parasitic draw? I do have an immobiliser system which does drain the battery more of course but was wondering if there is anything else I should be looking at fixing? Does the ground wires on the chassis have anything to do with the low 12v?        SAU.avi
    • My lord that is some low oil pressure as minimum in the manual! I guess the big part will be seeing how it changes as the engine gets more spirited use.
