N12 Turbo Forums

the injectors have been progressively getting worse, and I've not been able to do much work on the exa due to a torn disc in my back. finally pulled them out last night and dropping them off to be cleaned, pressure tested and have new o-rings installed by this weekend. Then i'll need to replace the ...

Sorry Michael I didn't read this post earlier, I live around 25 min from punchbowl and would be happy to help out in the next 7 days before I go away?

Thanks Baz I'll strip out the rear and get a mate to hose the car on the weekend, there are definately multiple leaks both in the boot and around the doors. Replacing the door seals would probably be a good start wouldn't it?

that was my first thought, however I resealed them, and the moisture seems to be getting in higher than the tail light seals would allow, and also going almost the entire way around the boot

The 2 month drama free run came to an end, with what turned out to be the alternator slowly dying and the grounding wire not being connected properly, cheap fixes thankfully. Also the O-ring on injector 4 needs replacing, as well as new spark plugs and oil when i have money :/

So the exa's been leaking in the boot somewhere, and i have siliconed up every little crack, taken off the boot rubber and cleaned everywhere but it still leaks alot. the car is also leaking from somewhere inside the cabin, causing the carpet to be wet beneath the front seats/passenger footwell.

Keen for a sticker too...

touch wood the car has been running fantastically, almost a month without incident which would be the longest stretch for the time that I have owned it haha

respect.


please please please do a full write up of everything involved in the sr20 conversion!!!! especially when it comes to the custom work required

2nd bill came to $800 today, ouch. hopefully picking the car up tonight and taking it for a spin for the first time in ages

This is so straight and clean! I like it :) Thanks mate appreciate it :) pay day today, exa is on the hoist at the mechanics getting the manifold flange replaced, studs replaced/threads fixed, support bracket for the turbo made up to the original gusset location and all tyres fitted properly and a ...

caved into the pressure from the gf, car is going into the exhaust shop tomorrow, they can fix the existing manifold and take on the manifold studs.

Your not "downgrading" going from a Disco to a China T28. It will perform more or less the same. A disco IS a T28 with a BB core. Discos are one of the best small engine turbos ever made but are a bit oversized for a 1500. You could change the rear housing down to the smalles available fo...

the manifold flange is warped, although the dump is secured to the rear engine mount and with a 20cm piece of flexipipe too. replaced the passenger cv last night which was fun... getting a new gt28 copy next wednesday after pay day and a stock manifold, this time for real as the middle manifold bolt...

it's now getting a new turbo, a chinese copy gt28 as per the one i put on my ET, and a stock manifold. just discovered tonight that one of the manifold bolts had blown out in addition to the warped flange
