I also got my Oil Pressure Sensor for the back of the block. thats gonna get installed ASAP

Seak Peak At the Lip...........

Ya know, some of us enjoy a little shaft play occasionally...

Ok yesterday I did my oil Pressure sensor. turns out that the sensor itself was good and wasnt leaking. how ever all the oil was coming from the turbo.. Im hoping my lines are good, but the turbo will be swapped out this weekend..

i love shaft play.. Just not that kind lol.

When I do my turbo I'm replacing all of the lines, much easier than dealing with leakage later. Where is the oil coming from? The feed line?

measy27 · Post by **measy27** » Wed Jun 17, 2009 8:06 pm

i have no clue. theres oil all over. There is oil on the center of the turbo as well as all over the Charge pipe and lines..

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed Jun 17, 2009 9:11 pm

Sounds like the feed line, the return/drain tube is more towards the rear of the turbo, although those tend to leak as well.

Tru. I might just pic up all new lines.. Do you know where I can get them from for a cheap price... The car doesnt smoke like a blown turbo does.. everyonce in a while ill get a random small white/blueish cloud, but not all the time. Spools good, but the "butt dyno " tells me its not performing like it should

Update::

Hopefully getting new oil lines as well as another turbo tomorrow.. Im gonna try to have everything installed friday night or saturday after noon..

So are you getting rid of that turbo at the top of the page and getting different turbo?

measy27 · Post by **measy27** » Sun Jun 21, 2009 9:02 am

I sent the turbo at the top of the page back to Slaw. I bought it off him.. I have a local guy who thought he had a blown turbo, bought another turbo in perfect shap. Im gonna get it off of him..

yea sorry about that again... god im such a noob!
idk what im gonna do with that one, maybe a hood prop for shows if i swap it, maybe a paperweight
maybe sell it on ebay and mark it as for parts or as is and list it has shaft play idk
but good luck with the new one

Its cool.. I seen a guy on STforums how was buying a bunch of sock turbos good and bad.. If i find the link ill send it to you..

Update...

I got my nexo PX5's for really cheap because the tires where shot. They are so bad, i cant do more than 60 mph on the highway in the rain. Fuckin scary

.. So I have inspection coming up and I just bought some tires..225/45/17 Nankang NS1's from discount tire direct. 264 shipped.. I just need a cheap set of tires. Nothing special. i already have rims with snow tires and rims with drag radials.. So i opted for cheaps instead of good high performance tires.

When doing my oil pressure sensor, I could see all the oil all over my lines and the intercooler pipe from the turbo. So when LSP mentioned it to me about oil lines leaking, I decided to get some. I got a set coming in, in a couple days.. I still have to get the other turbo, but all i need right now to pass inspection are the tires. I dont leave until august 1st, so i have about a month to get the turbo and lines in.

Do you have the banjo fittings?? There's a list in my thread of all the lines and PN's for them and their washers, etc. Coking is common in the oil feed line so it's something to consider replacing once you have it off.

I was gonna pick up all the fittings and crush washers sometime this week..

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 10:44 am

Now that looks REALLY damn nice!!!

measy27 · Post by **measy27** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 11:00 am

Thanx.. Pretty cheap too.. I paid 264 shipped for the tires and 40 for mounting and balancing.. Not a bad 300 spent.. Rides way better.. I can take it to get inspected now, but im fuckin nervous. Im always nervous with inspections.. Nothing has changed since last year so hopefully it will pass again..

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 11:03 am

Nice... good luck on the inspection!
