Yeah no kidding, And what was that guy talking about "can't replace the seals" wtf? Last time I looked, you could take a turbo apart......Shadow Z said:you can rebuild your turbos alot cheaper than new ones cost.

I'd say it depended on the shop that did the rebuild.... You do it right they shouldn't fail at all. Heck I've rebuilt several turbos in my garage: T3,T25,14B,13G,16G to name most of them and to my knowledge they are all still on the road..........Spongerider said:Rebuilt is a very, very bad idea for the Z32. They have a 98% failure rate from my experiance.
I can't strees it enough, STAY AWAY FROM REBUILTS!!!!
This rule only applies to Z32's.
Why are the Z32 turbos so touchy.....?Spongerider said:I would say that holds true with almost everything except Z32 rebuilt turbos. I use to believe the way you did til I started seeing rebuilt problems all the time.
Mike K. would agree.
