no....again, this was my first major mechanical experience.

i did everything by the book, and my work was CLEAN. i am mechanically inclined...but its the little lessons that you need to learn from starting something new (i.e. CHECK SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK UNLESS YOU KNOW TRUST THEM)

i never had to check rsaeini's wiring, nor anything else he did on my car because i knew he knew his shit.

im willing to bet that the reason the engine blew, was directly related to oil not being able to go back to the pan (when i first started the car) and it damaged the blades. car ran fine and strong for about 3 months before the motor just blew up.

i performed maintenance regularly, and the car was doomed from the get-go.

It'll need a new compressor seal. And... it's a compressor wheel or compressor blades. Not fan blades.

assmunchsayswhat?

so all i would need is a compressor seal and compressor blades?

how much would that run?

i think i can install them myself, unless it requires crazy hyper jdm install knowledge :p
 
A new wheel and seal would be around $50- $75 new. However, I wouldn't try to install the seal yourself. As far as installing the wheel, read my shaft play post and that'll tell you how to remove and install a compressor wheel.

www.turbo-power.com rebuilds 'em. Ask for Beth and tell her Ji sent you. Beth knows her shit, but don't even try to hit on her, Tony. She'll chew you up and spit you out. Anyway, if I remember right, they do rebuilds/ cleaning/ balancing jobs for about $250. On a TDO5H, that may not be worth it, unless you're either going to use the turbo, or give it to someone who will. If I had to pay more than $25 for a small turbo that needed $250 worth of work, I'd keep looking.

i like my women aggresive :p


:D :D :D

thanks ji, but i really dont have the time nor money nor patience to mail it out to get it fixed. i just want to dump it as soon as i can, for as much money as it will get me.

hopefully there is somebody out there in ebay-land who is interested in it, and knows how to repair it.

Just put some stupid words in the title (CIVICJDMFASTANDFURIOUSTHISSHITADDS400HP yougettheidea) and some retard would probably buy it and maybe if you're lucky even fight the other bidders for it. I mean if you're just interested in getting rid of it and don't really care where it goes, you know? :p

:lol:
 
It'd be like Einstein vs. Corky.

Christ, Tony's the one that hooked his fuel rail to his exhaust manifold or some crap...
