Bastard 20g goes kabloom!

How bad is the damage, if there is severe shaft play I would drop your pan. I know from experience how much material ends up in your pan. Ask Barton, myself, or Jaei Sun whats left in your pan after a turbo suddenly goes out.

Now if it was just an oil seal letting go, I wouldn't be too worried but to me it sounds like you will have some serious bearing damage.

good luck, and go buy a pte 3561. :D

Jim

why would it end up in your pan?

[scheides]

The oil from the feed runs through the journal bearing and then out the return line into the oil pan. If the bearing blows up, pieces of it will end up going down the oil return line into the pan with the oil :(

If I end up with motor damage, I'll definitly be picking up an evo or something for my DD and then build up the eclipse for a weekend warrior :)

Ok, admit it. There's a small part of you that hopes there's engine damage. :D I might be able to come help a little later. What time are you thinking of working on it?

Mark, bring BEER! ;)

Chris, that car doesn't have enough riceon it to draw attnetion. I can help with that though ;)

Well, you can pull a cher, and drive on it for a while. I still have his torn up impeller wheel in my toolbox here at work. A piece of plastic got sucked through it, while racing a black civic (not nate-guy thought he had a fast honduh) and then the turbo started to go out slowely. Finally, it snapped the actual shaft, and it oil started smoking out the exhaust, and filled the FMIC with metal. I know of a 60-1 with a larger compressor cover, brand fricken new, dual bb garret setup that is at elite right now.

Yea or how about not do what Swifty said...

Man that sucks, just get AAA to tow it, no reason not too ;) I had my old 1g towed numerous times by AAA, they loved me lol. Time for an upgrade thats for sure!

[scheides]

I'll be calling AAA at about 4pm, and be at my house sometime after 5pm with the car. I'll start tearing into the car then. Right now my best option looks like a certain turbo in the for-sale section here. I'm going to head out around 7:30pm to help pull the new turbo off of it's current mount and then bring it back to my place for mounting. If anyone wants to help at any point, feel free to give me a ring. I'm hoping to get this bitch buttoned up tonight, or worst-case by the end of the weekend.

I am pretty positive I have some blue stuff in stock.

I'm going to be staying in the area so I will call you Chris to see where you are at when I am done. Sounds like I'm gonna meet Jana downtown and grab a bite to eat at Chevys and then give you a buzz.
