My Turbo Died on Corolla Sportivo 2001 Tue, 01 March 2005 21:48 Go to previous message
Being a IHI turbo RFH4 . It is rare and I was given a WRX and GTR turbo but none would fit as the oil lines were on top or just no room as it would hit the oil filter.

Reason for turbo dieing? The shaft bearing failed causing the turbo to semi seize. Precision turbo believed that the previous owner followed the 10 000km oil changed and it should of been done on 5000kms.

Being a small Ball Bearing turbo the inlet oil nipple is very very small and if any carbon build up blocks that hole then it would eventually stuff up. Which it did.

There is no replacement turbo so I got them to rebuild it with a new internals non ball bearing but much much larger cartridge setup so basically a strong massive high flow.

Will get it back today or tomorrow.

Sucks that I couldnt get a replacement at a cheap price but this is ok
