Re: TD's 1993 Legacy SS

Hey Todd, did you ever switch to the colder 7 plugs ? My cars just started spuddering , sounds like its running on 3 Cylinders, no CEL's . Figured all that oil from the blown turbo migh have fouled the plugs. Haven't inspected them yet, cars been running good for probably 700 miles on the new turbo,...

Re: 93 SS Legacy Ver3 Ra/Sti Swap Updated 6/25/13 Tomei Turb

That sucks dude, how many Miles did that last motor last and how many were on it ? My car hasn't made it a full oil change yet lol. First it was the motor, next it was the tranny (my fault as I forgot to install the pilot bearing :cry: ) next was a blown TD05, then the rebuilt TD05 didn't work, then...

Are you ordering one from primitive ? You just want the 2 that bolt to the sub-frame then ? For the front mounts I just used there existing holes in the plate and drilled through the rad support . They was threaded inserts in our rad supports, but they didn't line up with any of there holes and my s...

Thanks man , you should. There very nice ! Just be warned that the holes didn't line up perfect. I had to take a die grinder with and aluminum bit and bore the rear holes up. I could measure up where they mount and tell you the dimensions. So when you order it you could ask for them to be positioned...

Re: Turbo Upgrade for Me and Info for BBS

This is a great thread Todd, even though it was in the Revtronix days So long story short, the rebuilt turbo blew instantly, they blamed it all on me, now I spent $1050 on an old Td05-16G, that's Blouch 16g-XT $$$$ :smt076 So now I'm super paranoid to reinstall the re-rebuilt turbo !

Thanks, At least somebody loves it ! Ah I do to, just very frustrated . It was a used turbo. So that was fine. Then after researching the Blouch & Kinugawa turbos. They didn't have a 90 inlet and was a few hundred more. That's why I decided to get it rebuilt. They I researched rebuilders. Was go...

Re: CFK's 92 SS Daily/Project (Updated Jan 13, Dyno & More P

Ya , I think I had switched the hard line from the VF11 to the TD04, then the TD05. The banjo bolt on the motor side has quite a large hole and is clear. I had left the hard line attached to the turbo when they rebuilt it. So I would have assumed they had disassembled and cleaned it with everything ...

OK, another Tragic incident. The oil seals on the Turbo blew on a road trip, thick Blue smoke and went through 4 litres to make it to my destination. 500 Km tow later it was home. Removed the Turbo, sent it to a Rebuild shop that my buddies shop recommended, read good reviews online as well. He info...

Re: TD's 1993 Legacy SS

Perfect, that's an Awesome thread ! Ya I pretty much decided to just get it rebuilt then. Hopefully my motor lasts, if not I will go for an upgrade when I do full internals and DOHC. But for now I like the low end torque of the SOHC. When you seen my Dyno plot the TD05 Spooled way later than it shou...

Re: where to buy new td05-16g turbo with 90 inlet

Sounds like I'm SOL unless I wanna purchase a new one and pray a short radius 90 would fit. I spoke with Blouch and they said only a factory rebuild was possible with them and no upgrades can be made. Only an 8cm exhaust housing, but nothing to the compressor side. On my old TD04 I had an aluminum 9...

Ya it minna looks like the only option as I can't find any aftermarket companies that make a P&P unit with a 90. I'm waiting for an email back from Blouch, and if they don't sell any which I assume they don't . I'll get a quote on having mine rebuilt and beefed up. I'm just not sure what the bes...

Re: where to buy new td05-16g turbo with 90 inlet

ya I knew there rebuildable, but I kinna wanted the most out of a new TD05 since it's easier and cheaper than upgrading to a VF39/550/Re-chipped RobTune. All iv'e seen is blouch and a few others, but there all the straight in type. So I figured I might as well upgrade if its blown. Then again a fast...

Re: Who's running 18" on their car ?

Totally, I Love Mikey's car. Those are sick wheels, but i did the same thing and put 18"s on the car and they just looked way to big ! I ended up selling them before I even ran them.

Depending on what tire size & Stance your going for, 16 & 17"s are the way to go :!:
