I got there eventually - but not easy when:

a) Doing this at night with no light

B) In a single garage with very little room to move

c) Anal neighbours

d) Limited tools

e) Lead light either makes things too light or too dark

f) After a few beers

anyway , here are the pics

Yeah - I got no life - prefer to take turbos out of my car than go out - he he h

What about you ? You are here :P he he

My HKS 3040 sort of died - so taking it out to get tested / rebuilt / replaced - not sure yet

Small steps :D

is that much rust on the wheel healthy?

you save about 200 bucks taking the stuff out yourself instead of having the mechanic charge you by the hour to take shit apart.

    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
    • It just depends if you're like me with a high level of OCD for doing something like hardlines, and highly critical of the little things, and then bugger all patience to get it how my brain pictures it
    • More than happy with the colour match Talking to the painter he recommended to give the top a few weeks for the paint to 100% cure prior to sealing it with the ceramic stuff Also, because why not..... I have a fancy pants Fluidampr harmonic balancer on order, the 2.5 engine uses the OEM 2.0 balancer off the old motor as the 2.5 balancer is a larger unit and doesn't fit clearance wise, which, because the two engines have different harmonics, isn't optimal, the OEM balancer does the job, but as the gear driven balancer in the bottom end is removed to fit a RWD application there is slightly more vibration, the Fluidampr helps with the harmonics that the gear driven balancer once took care of,  basically makes life easier on the oil pump and bearings when thrashing it around Hopefully the weather gets better soon because I'm keen for some cruising around, and currently, with the winds and storms we are getting, the amount of detritus being blown around from trees on the road isn't something I want to be driving around in
