YES it broke... not too bad I hope, just a few loose bolts, hopefully I can sort it out.
O crap what happened?
At Least my car is legal now, with the new engine and all, just for in case.
Fraking whole turbo fell apart, I just hope there aint no damage, all 4 bolts on the exhaust housing came loose, the core and the compressor side were off set to the one side with about 3/5mm just hope the wheel didn't touch the housing Idiots at Turbo Exchange never used locktight on the bolts.
It runs, but I idled home from Santon was at the testing station getting my booking for my bike learners when it happened.
Heard your actuator also fell off or nearly did.
yup the two bolts came off, noticed it luckily.

I think ill be coming, ive just got tempermental water hoses at the moment, their all perrishing one by one. Jon, if you can call between 12:15 and 13:00 we can see how to arrange transport.
Im also just scared with the rough road, low profiles and rock hard suspension, no spare...
I work in midrand so just wondering who else is here in their sx, iv seen a red one floating around and yesterday a black one with a supra like wing on it
and vlade, ive got the stock turbo off the engine i just bought, don't know the condition of it, havn't really looked at it, but if you'd like you can have a look at it for temporary measures

i'll be there. midrand at 10:30. i'm in.
BUT- i've also got no spare, rock hard suspension and very low ride height.
is there not a better road to choose to get to harties???
whats the tally at so far toby?

Don;t know what the tally is
Unfortunately this is about the best way there. Taking the N4 means driving through pretoria which can be a pain when you have a long tail of cars following you. Plus you gotta pay toll fees. All other routes have some bad road (remember December last year when Snooby blew a tire?). We'll just take it easy, it's a short stretch of bad road, and the road is like a roller coaster, so it's fun!
For those that don't have spares, maybe consider getting those tyre weld jobbies that you just spray into the tyre.
