  1. there will be oil sprayed all over the bay if it was piston rings mate, happened to mine and im re-building mine now. Just take off he top mounted intercooler and pipe connecting to the turbo, and its easier for you to get at then. if you were closer id come give you a hand mate
  2. it wont be piston rings, unless theres alot of oil coming out of the top of the rocker cover breather pipe
  3. first thing is to look under the car at the turbo, and check the oil feed pipe, if thats ok, the undo the intake pipe from the turbo (black plastic pipe) if theres alot of oil in there, then it has gone, if not stick your fingers in the turbo ( be carefull, blades are sharp) and wiggle the shaft to se if theres alot of movement.
  4. your Turbo has gone booooooooooom, by the sounds of things mate, check the oil feed, if its ok, wiggle the shaft in the turbo to see if theres alot of movement and to see if theres oil coming out of it.

  20. LOL... my glanza was pushing 172bhp before the piston wet bang, and i raced a GT4 that was fairly standard, off the line i had no chance, from a rolling start at say 30-90 i kept up well. But if your saying you have gone from a stand still, and beat the GT4, then congrats, you must have a totally amazing Glanza....... or an amazing imagination..
