I just picked up a civic last week with a blow turbo. It had a full bolt on greddy kit. i ordered a rebuild kit for it and put it together. i followed 2 write ups on how to do it and do it the exact was it said to. but for some reason the turbine wont click back into place like its supposed to. i compared all the pieces in the kit to the old parts and everything is the same. i have no idea why.. any ideas please?

 

Pics? Im assuming ur reffering to the turbine housing going back on? It might need a little more persuation sometimes they have to be hammered off carefully with a rubber mallet cuz its a tight fit, but not sure if this is what ur talking about provide more info please so we can be of better help

 

ill upload some. its not the housing itself its the compressor wheel. sorry if im not naming off all the right parts and what not. ive never really gone this deep into turbo stuff. lol.

Yeah, the thrust washer is causing your problem. I do not know how to put it back together You might have to tap it in or pinch that washer together I have no idea but at least you know what is causing your problem.
