[bccentaur3]

I have less than a quarter in my celica, but its not running right now. In my 90 bmw I have less than a quarter too, so I might be screwed.

[Celiracer18]

my battery is dead

[bccentaur3]

Yeah, I had to buy a new one last week. Its a rape I tell ya.

[tjblacrosse]

gay st paul park auto gave me ****ty refurbed axles so now i'm doubling the amount earlier paid for new ones and can't get the right ****in seals. god people are stupid.

[bccentaur3]

Dude... don't even complain. Imagine the axles I got from autozone. Had to replace it twice in 3 months and finaly got it right when I went to O'rielly's. The guy at Napa gave me the wrong axle seal too. Probably because he had a beer with him while he was getting my seal.

I had both refurb axles in the first week, ran it and passenger side got all fcuked up. Ran it a second time, the new axle worked passenger side, old one on driver side fcuked. Paid over a buck for each new and not even toyota (after looking up the right seal) cant get it right. The seals are so alike but so different. Its been in the garage for 3 weeks. Now the driver one won't come out so wtf.

[bccentaur3]

Pry it out and get a new one. Toyota switched to metal seals now.

Yea it won't come out. It wasn't this hard before with the old one. That snap ring is whats holding it up I think.

Hey, where do I tap for coolant for the turbo? I've searched and people say to tap under the throttle body, but aren't there 2 hoses coming out of the turbo? So what do I do? Tee off twice under the throttle body and connect hoses onto the hard coolant lines?

[rjbibeau]

st. paul park auto aka dirty daves is the ****. i buy all my parts there hella good price no one can beat em. they will warranty the defective parts out. you can build a whole car down there for like 3 grand haha.


Will as far as the coolant line there are three hose under the throttle body two are coolant and one is a vacuum. you can either feed the turbo a single coolant line which will work or you can take off the extra plate on the ct26 and make a flange for it. i brazed on a -two -4an fittings onto the coolant pipes and and ran it to a T fitting to the two coolant lines under the throttle body. i'll post some pics up for ya when i get my g/f camera.

[bccentaur3]

Thanks a lot bro. How come the turbo has to holes for coolant then? I don't understand what you mean by single coolant when there are two openings on the turbo itself. I don't want to take the blockoff plate, because it will be too much work to make a fitting.

[Celiracer18]

in and out for coolant, and an in and out for oil?

[rjbibeau]

exactly. i just used both coolant passages i figured it would be better flow. stock just uses the one hole.... not quite sure why they would have an extra hole with a block off plate.
