Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
that is really shitty.
see what diesel componits can do with it. you should have called me we could have got the car back to your place |
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Good luck, buddy. Hopefully you'll have some good karma come your way.
|
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Just take it to diesel components man, have them fix it, and send the guy you bought it from the bill (unless it was from oil starvation or something). Don't fuck around, just do it right.
Sorry dude. |
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Glad it's only the turbo, I'd really like to hear what it did before it gave out, but you must have been making some boost for it to go out like that, so cheer up and let us know!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Apparently it did like 454 or something on a half pull at 28psi before it blew.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Keep your head up, youll get the shit figured out! Youre sooo close!
|
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
That sucks man, wasn't a good day for anybody at DB yesterday, first your turbo poops out, then the Supra has problems. :(

Drained the oil and it has some very fine metal particulate in it.... So now I am going to pull the engine and check clearances and wear patterns on the bearings. Hopefully we caught everything in time I can just whammy new bearings in there and use some better oil. Shit happens I suppose. -Sean |
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Good luck to you both.
|
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
shitty man. everything happens for a reason and good thing it wasn't your engine that failed on you. good luck man.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Well, sat around at work today, and called the company out in FL that the turbo came from. I guess other's he's done has a 360 thrust bearing in it, but not mine. So, he said send it back, and he will honor his turbo, fix it, and have it back to me within a week. I MIGHT even get a billet wheel outta it too! We shall see. Either way, Turbo goes tomorrow headed to FL.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Sucks to hear it blew up, but I'm glad to hear they're gonna make it right for you.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
