Rebuilding Turbo
i bought my turbo used, was suposta be in good condition but i kept noticeing i would burn oil and even though i have 127k miles on my motor it has not burned a drop of oil. i checked the IC pipes a noticed oil in them. i thought it was the return line getting restricted but i recalled there was oil in the IC pipes when i bought it, i thought it was there to prevent rust because the pipes were chrome. it kept getting worse and my oil return line just burned a hole because it was touching my DP. it was fine before i went to houston for IR and WIC, some thing shifted. well anyway so i am just going to redo the whole turbo, and fix my return line. here are the pics on the turbo rebuild. any advice would help alot!!

Re: Rebuilding Turbo (ATurboCivic2NV)
I dunno about your question, but I was just lookin at your site. Ha, what a joke. Your car is nice, but your site is called noricers.com. Why is it that your boy with the mazda has cut springs, headlight strobes, and neon--then your other boy is rockin the blingbling chrome niches on his civic? Funny as ****, all rice. Kinda like an oxymoron!!

Re: Rebuilding Turbo (Bad Tom)
my friend with the mp3 is hardly rice. i must admit the silver civic is on the fence with rice. but if you read the performance mods, it is hardly rice. also if you were so intelligent as to noticing rice, you would see the a pic of the car on my index page and would discover the true definition of rice. we are also in the works on the "ricer" for a head swap to an ex and or a little shot of NOS

Can you please insert the word rice one more time. I think I missed your point
I think you should rename the site to somerice.com from norice.com

Re: Rebuilding Turbo (93LSivic)
what ever jack ***
anyway i rebuilt the turbo was not as hard as it seems. but i have having a problem with the ******* wheel locking up. i will turn my car off the the wheel will just stop(can't be turned at all). i am getting plenty of oil and it spins now at idle. it use to never do that. i might take it apart and re use the old thrust bearing, it has little ware and it think that is the problem.

Not getting pissed. Just kinda laughing at this guy. He rebuilt the turbo and did the upgradable custom compressor wheel scrape da housing trick.
