RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - zx_volcane - 29-09-2013 Could rebuild it yourself, kits are pretty cheap. Or go with a different more readily available turbo, assuming its on a universal flange and you can bolt different ones up.

Started looking into rebuild kits :-D RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - Dean - 30-09-2013 Looks epic mate! Love the idea of the truck turbo :p RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - ozonehostile - 02-10-2013 despite the turbo situation i decided that shouldn't stop me with carrying on getting the rest of the car ready to roll, so last night was spent making new brake lines and a large order from eurocarparts for the last few remaining parts to get the car back on four wheels RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - Frosty - 02-10-2013 Glad to hear your not giving up with this!

Yeah, at least if the car is finished I can prat about with turbos later :-) RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - Piggy - 02-10-2013 looks amazing...just astonished at your amazing bubble RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - ozonehostile - 07-10-2013 Spent another weekend alone in a shed with the car, not that I didn't enjoy it haha. Had alot of issues with the usual rounded off brake unions etc etc, but it now has all the new brake lines and braided flexible fitted ready for the brembos to be fitted after a year of sitting in my garage haha Oh, and the turbos come off yet again for some ninja work Soon as she's back on 4 wheels it's moving across the road for some welding and my new seats to be fitted :-D Bastard heater matrix clip thingy cracked! Cba to take the dash out again so some epoxy stuff will do And the absolute mess of a bay, it is nearly finished honest! RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - Piggy - 07-10-2013 that is a mess. but I still love your oil catch tank. grab me one if you ever see another! RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - ozonehostile - 08-10-2013 So yeah, the turbo is off yet again, really feels like I'm going backwards big time now :-\ Hopefully more pics tonight of some actual progress i.e. Actually putting things on lol RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - tenwierdufos - 08-10-2013 (07-10-2013, 12:54 PM)Piggy Wrote: that is a mess. That oil catch tank looks like an old style diesel filter thats been totally gutted out and had a small air filter bunged on to me! This is one off a 200tdi landrover, guess you could convert the head and pull the filter out the middle of the can?

Totally stealing that idea RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - ozonehostile - 10-10-2013 Kinda annoying been in a workshop with no lights, restricted to weekends and the couple of hours light I get after work, however, still been tinkering away at it :-) Last night saw the return of the turbo to the bay, some xud spec exhaust fabrication and trial fitment of the long awaited brembos :-D Note nessesary modification to clear the gear linkages lol And a brembo tried for size RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - Piggy - 10-10-2013 SO THATS how you made the catch tank!!! what did you use to replace the filter then!? RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - Poodle - 10-10-2013 Haha nice catch tank, is that an old bosch 205 filter housing? Oops, i'll take that as a yes lol. Looks tidy dude, good to see progress continuing. RE: Project Truck Turbo MkII * now broken!!! - ozonehostile - 10-10-2013 Some more updates.
