i hooked up the kit correctly and everything was labeled in/out. it goes from the block, to the filter, then oil cooler, then back into the block

yeah, i have not been driving it. im going to keep it in the same condition as right after it happened. if they want to do oil analysis to prove that it blew when i say it did then im fine with that. plus, i still may be rebuilding this actual motor so i want to keep the damage to a minimum. im...

thats the same that i think. ive been using these things for years, and never a problem. imho its still one of the best filters out there, and i will be using one when i get my motor fixed again.

hahha.... so i went to toyota, estimate of repairs is $8906 including parts and labor so hopefully i can get at least 50% of that and fix my shit :)

our shop is one of the largest buyers of purolator brand stuff. we use three different lines of filters from them, and its Sears we are talking about here. ive got pics, lots of pics... :) also, fwiw, i contacted them today and they are overnighting me a "recovery package" to ship them my bad...

wow, sounds promising. funny thing is that i bought that filter at my work. Sears auto center. i have never had a problem with any purolator filter in my life, and most mechanics i work with along with anybody i know actually reccommends that filter over all others. i will still continue to...

nay on the pump shim. when i rebuilt, i used a known good used pump. disassembled and checked everything. oil press ive never personally seen over 30 psi.

So, im driving out of the parking lot at my work today, and i heard a hissing sound, and then a wierd squirting sound. i didnt make the connection at first, but it occurred to me to look at my oil pressure gauge, and sure enough it was at zero. i whipped my hand up to shut the car off, and...

very nice man!

well, niether of those will work with stock turbo or exhaust. those manifolds have t4 flanges on them, and require an external wastegate also.

the hard-rubberish insulation comes off nicely if you let a piece of dry-ice sit on it to harden it up and then chip it off with a chisel/scraper/screwdriver and a hammer. makes it a real easy job

here ya go, only a few things i would change... ¡ADVISO! Este local esta protegido por cámaras, video de circuito cerrado con una grabadora remota, y una alarma silenciosa.

welcome! looks nice, and good luck with everything. funny thing is that you left your supra for a grand am, but i left my turbo grand am for a turbo supra about a year ago

uh... in my state it is ILLEGAL to sell a car with a salvage title.

the whine is from not having the turbo spin-balanced after reassembly. it is necessary for something turning almost 100,000 rpms

think you answered your own question, lol

wiggle present in the steering wheel at high speeds would be involving the front 2 tires. out of balance, rim with excessive runout, bubble in the tire, warped rotors, or sticky calipers. when first starting off, i really need to know what a "wiggle" is. is it shaking side to side? just a...

the best way is to cap off the pipe that goes to the throttle body, and cap off the turbo inlet. find a way to get an air fitting on one of the caps and pressurize it to about 20psi. there should be no leaks at all. doing it this way makes it pretty easy to find where the leak is. if this test...

PIITB no really, saw this one on a ws6 trans am the other day: 10SNE1

uh... no. drilled or slotted rotors can not be cut on a brake lathe. it will break the carbide bits used to cut. i tried that once and had to replace some expensive parts at my work.
