My car hasn't even been started yet :rant: awaiting the assesor to approve the quote ($9000)

Well teh turbo might might not be a bit of a dud. Well the thing is defiantly rebuilt, shaft play is as per spec ext, but the thing took 2 weeks to gete here and was wraped in a rag to keep it clean, the box got water damaged the turbo aluminium housing got wet, and now all looks like it's got icicles growing out of it.

I am going to see if i can fix it, if not, i get my money back and a high flow.

AND begor GMB tels me i told you so. I TOLD YOU SO.

No doubt i will, just depends who is going from the south :P

9k damage hey, doesn't sound like a fair insurance reaming at all by the bodyworks :laughing-smiley-014:

and the assesor said i need a new intercooler, one of the fins has been bent since i got it. So now I get a new intercooler, I have to see the bodyworks today to make sure they order the right one, as the one that's on it now is a huge HKS one. So I don't want them putting on a hybred rip off or something.

mmmmmmm

maybe i can get the garbage dude to "reverse" into my car...

DO you think they would buy that the wheels fell off along with the brakes, unbolted the motor and everything else in the engine bay, removed the front bar and FMIC & oil cooler along with a few other things :thumbsup:

I had a look today, and the intercooler did have damage from the acident. Gave the bodyworks the brand and p/n so it all should be good :(

Shannons don't realy care about the cost, it's not their money :rant:

finally got the rest of the kit on, car also has a small photo in HPI this issue for tassie drift series :happy:

Looks great Stu

love the fat vertex look :ph34r:

Im still undecided if i want to kit my car or not yet, will wait till its back on the road first i think :whistling:

are you comming up this weekend stu.

looks like my car will be ready to go by saturday. would be ready to go now if the trail shaft was finshed when they said it would be.

mmmm the sweet sound of a fresh 2.5L

Of course you want to put a kit on your car, 32s look phat with kits...

mine an BN sports by the way...I ran over the vertex at the drift day haha

I've got a vertex kit (has been sitting here for a year and half :happy: ) but if i do decide to put a kit on im keen on something a little different but having trouble finding a supplier :(

The only down side is getting in/out of my driveway and using the car on a regular basis with the clearance issues with a kit fitted :ph34r:

    • Thanks for that.... If only I could do something once and be happy with that, like some people do....
    • I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)
    • Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage
    • Hi. Thanks for the answer. I do not have instagram 😄 I too considering turbo the RB20DE NEO 🙂 But i think i upgrade the gearbox first or at least buy new.  
    • Just pulled the passenger apart so got a good idea, also the side bracket that pivots the top half is completely cooked.. how I don’t know.. haha and paid $400 also included a photo of the passenger seat! She is mint
