WD40 or CRC and careful tapping with a hammer will do it. The best penetrating fluid by far is Inox.

if all you have to do is spin the core just get at the circlip on either side and rotate each side till its in position, you wont get much done with the circlip holding it together.....

no circlip on the turbine housing just those 2 half rings. undo em both and slide the housing off.

managed to get the housings rotated today.
i needed to coerce the core away from the exhaust housing with a plastic mallet. just seized up as it turned easy once a few mm apart

now need new actuator setup as the oil drain interferes with my old one from the t25. i could make it work by redrilling new mounts in comp cover but then it hits the block and the manifold wont go on. so anyone got a t25g wastegate actuator?

ok so i haven't touched the et in months! the turbo is in pieces and i'm thinking i'll match the smaller t25 exhaust housing to the new t25g i am putting on.

gonna do a test fit of everything cause i get the feeling the new radiator filler neck will interfere with the cooler piping which i might have to run under the car and rotate the comp cover pointing down.

also need to get a battery charger

she'll be up for sale when running again, rego till 24th october. if doesnt sell i will part it out
