Sefton-EP91

I'll have a look and feedback to you thanks for your help mate. I'm fitting the turbos and all being primed with king lead off and oil drain off and crank, wait few seconds then crank again until oil comes out drain hose

Sorry I keep editing the thread to make it as accurate as possible. I appreciate your comment but it doesn't explain the blown turbos. I did have this at the back of my mind but if this is the case I will do the work and sell up. Thanks again mate

The following have been replaced in the past 3 weeks. Valve stem oil seals Turbo (FRESHLY rebuilt by midland turbos) been on since 8th may (yesterday) done 50miles at the most Head gasket New braided oil feed pipe I fitted my old turbo for a few days and had no smoke whatsoever. But whenever I fit this hybrid it seems to ALWAYS go wrong. The turbo is primed each time at fitment and always warmed up and cooled down before given any boost. The car seems to smoke intermittent but more often than not it will smoke. It seems to smoke In all driving conditions (when it's smoking). Mainly under light throttle and when sat idling at a junction. I personally think the turbo seals have gone again.. Exactly the same as before!! How can a old turbo that's done god knows how many miles be more reliable than a turbo that's done 0 miles (three times) I have to say this is an assumption regarding oil seal but I'm having the exact same symptoms as before as to when it burns etc etc. I am getting to the point of which I no longer have the will power to do more to the car. It's blown the turbo twice now in the space of around 2 months both times the turbo has seen roughly 50 miles at the most? Which tells me that something is causing this.. I went externally gated on ct9 and ever since it's now been a problem. Please help I'm suppose to be leaving for japfest in the early hours of the morning but doesn't look like I will be going because of this ongoing fault. All comments are much appreciated thanks in advance.

I used my hands, put the cam in a vice and turn the "outer" gear until it lines up with hole and get a second person to put a bolt through. It's not easy but is achievable it does hurt your hands for a couple seconds but just make sure your second person is quick with the bolt

Thanks socks

I am thinking about getting some to "bling" up my bay a little. I was just wondering. Does the set come with the ct9 water hoses? X2 pieces that come off the thermo housing? Thanks in advance

I assume they are in good condition and not cracked etc. Send me your PayPal info via pm and I will have them. Cheers mate

BUMP NEED ASAP

Need the above items as mine have sprung a leak. Pm your best prices posted. if you're local I could possibly collect. I Need both of them. Also need them as soon as possible so need them to be posted quickly.

Do you still have these?

Read the second from last comment and follow instructions mate I will be doing the same 2moz hope this helps. http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?28144-lining-up-cams

Need torque settings for: Head bolts Conrod bolts Camshaft bolts thanks in advance

I use vw sump sealant works a treat!

Just check the sprak plug is tight mate and also might be worth changing the spark plug seals aswell

Fair enough, yeh I dont see why that wont work.

Thanks for the info mate. Much appreciated I dont think glanza clutches are the same as n/a. N/a clutches are 200mm and glanza/gt are 212mm. Correct me if im wrong though please.

Ok thanks do you have a link to yours by any chance?

Does anyone run this clutch in there glanza or gt? I just want to know how it feels and does it cope quite well with the torque? I am on a custom ct9 hybrid. Soon to be at 1bar, after engine rebuild. Link.. http://www.tuningdevelopments.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=502_520_587&products_id=983

I shouldn't think so because you are not adding anything that could "potentially" add more more power. I assume your map was already with the tongs hybrid?

Few pics of mine

Thanks H for your input. Im going for valve stem seals and hg along with a few other bits whilst its all apart. I have purchased some valve stem seals and a few other parts now thanks anyway mate much appreciated!!

Thanks mate i am going to be ripping everything apart and checking it all anyway. Do valve seals and hg at the same time. New piston rings etc etc. no problem mate I will keep you updated!

Following our phone call today Liam I am going to attempt at rotating the compressor housing on my old turbo and see if I can fit that. I will then let you know what happens regarding that I am pretty sure it's not the turbo. When It idles it's now just "white-ish" smoke until the throttle is pressed which would then turn to thick blue when the throttle is pressed. Thanks mate.

Buy the ones Iddy supplies, I brought some and they are spot on!

Thanks for everyone's opinion. Tbh I'm glad you have all said valve stem seals because it now gives me an excuse to replace the hg. I suppose I will have to get on the case of buying all the parts. I was going to text you later but I had no doubts in my head about the turbo hence why I put it in engine section again lol I will set at gettin parts. I will keep you updated of any changes mate I had also heard you could it with the head on Sam but I think I'm just going to go the whole hog and do the hg as well. Have head skimmed, OEM head bolts etc. thanks for the reply mate it's much appreciated
