Thought about it, Ok guys im desperate as here, Went to change the thermo stat and fcuk thers a broken bolt on the housing so i got it all off drilled into it got the easy out kitand that snapped off in the bolt!!!, Took it to the garage they cant get it out, What can i do they said go engine reconditiners get them to get it out, Surely i can try something else? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Where dose the turbo pick its oil feed from and where dose the return line go to?

Quick search found this I know there is a better pic on here somewhere, but I cant be ****ed looking for it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I don't know about with the easy out in it, But just weld a nut on the end and undo it. Like a exhauste stud.

can you tap a new bolt hole near the broken one? ---------- Post added 06-10-10 at 20:41 ---------- possibly drill a series of very small holes around the easyout and that may loosen the easyout

maybe a stupid question, but iv always been pretty keen on dropping an rb30 in my wagon. The usual has always been an rb or a v8.. but has anyone tried anything else or is it just a bit to naughty as such?? just thinking someone suggested a 2jz... stupid idea??

Weld a flat bit of metal onto it then get some vice grips. I broke a easy out and 3 drill bits in my exhaust stud, was nearly going to throw the head in the bin. I got the grinder with a cutting disc/blade on it and cut a grove in it too which also made it move a little. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Ok guys, Will try, Yeah its in the block I dont think it would seal with two bolts, Will have ago at some of ya suggestions,

Has anyone passed a wof with the calais flips down ? Cbf wiring mine in, looks better down anyways.

yep i do and mike that i know of,and adam.most people dont know they pop up anyway

yip mine too,passed wof at VTNZ 6 months ago like that.pulled the relay straight away so they wouldnt come up. calais i had 10 years ago i did same thing never had prob getting wofs.

Yeah passes with them down even with their fancy light measuring machine

Just in the middle of tidying up (hiding) some of the wiring in my engine bay, and relocating battery to the boot, just want to confirm, I run the positive lead from the battery straight to the starter motor, then tap everything else straight off the starter (ie all the other positive leads that used to come off the battery)?

if you can fit them all on to the stud or run a smaller + to run all the auxillaries, probally feed to the fuse box location but if you want the simple way to do it' run 2x 25-35mm welding cable from boot to where battery was and lug pos-pos neg-neg

Ok, but I don't need to run a neg cable from boot to engine bay do I? can't I just use the chassis as earth?

yeah man i ran mine to a stud underneath the car think it was to do with mounting the towbar

just been through the same thing Hayden. I just ran a 0 guage pos cable from boot to starter ,then one from starter to alternater.and earthed the batt to chassis at the back,then earthed the gearbox,engine,and all old earths to chassis. fun job.....
