Wot? The picture of the blown wheel he posted is the same blown wheel (from the Knightsport turbo) that you just posted.

Was that not your point?

Agreed and the markings even prove that. You shafted a fellow member and the fellow community with lies and deceit. You can't even put forth even the simplest reply why it doesn't work. I followed through with Bryan and posted word for word his reply on YOUR turbocharger. You come up with a phone conversation on a weekend. You sold a **** item and can't even come up with the ***** to even offer compensation. Never once in your sale ad you stated that it was sold "As as, no refunds" But now you send me a PM saying you will refuse a refund and it was sold "As is".

Yeah.. You owe me a refund dude. And an apology to this forum.

All I was saying was that these two pictures show the same wheel:

http://i1112.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8fd0cb82.jpg

I think you need to pull the turbo and take your own photos to show to BNR.

I just put my stock rebuilt (by me) parts from the G-Pop shop with the 360 degree thrust bearing and step gap piston ring back on the car and it boosts just fine.. Hell I even passed emissions with almost zero readings. Got tags and back to basics.

Bryan was aware of this thread via email this his reply on page one.

Note that the Stage 4 uses a 60-1 comrpessor wheel/P trim turbine wheel whereas the one I received has a .70. It's not a BNR rebuild.

i owe you no refund and no apology to anyone dude... i have sold/bought plenty of items on this site with not one problem besides you. i figured everyone would know a used item is "as-is" especially when it takes 4 MONTHS to bring this up??? come on man.... you were even trying to say i sold you a **** turbo on your other thread when low and behold it was your fault (even though your so say great background of rotaries and 3 rotors...blah blah blah)....lets see here...

You know.. I have to apologize for this since I posted this publicly. The turbo seems to be fine. The crankcase had too much pressure and was seeping into the turbo. As soon as I vented it everything stopped. No smoking at all. I was thinking I had a faulty turbo. Only thing I have left to figure out is why I can't get it to spool. I'll be looking at the wastegate tomorrow.

Again, I apologize.

this was your last post, who isnt to say you screwd the turbo up by dumping way to much oil in. Lets look at this from my shoes shall we??? I had a great no probem at all BNR stage 4( with a new intake compressor wheel and balance done by bryan at BNR supercars) up for sale with KNOWN slight wheel damage. YOU bought it and as i told you the wheel never had any effect on my car even at 17psi... i took it off my car runnning completely fine.. so yes IT WAS NOT BY ANY MEANS A JUNK PART. as you can see in the videos.

of course bryan at BNR is going to say that he never touched that turbo you sent him a picture of because he hasnt!! you sent him a picture of a knightsports turbo???

Let's get this thing working

t2ae:
Don't sell imperfect parts except to friends. Hell, if I were you I would give him his money back and get that turbo so someone who will appreciate it.

-RotorDemon-
Don't buy parts that are imperfect. Learn to work on your own ****, not rely on an unnamed 'very reputable shop'. Man-up and take some responsibility for your part in any transaction. Used as-is parts are used as-is parts. Used as-is parts are sometimes, often times a smokin' deal compared to the same item new. Sometime it doesn't work out. Look for solutions rather than point fingers. Understand the seller in this case has already been accused by you of fraud in another thread that ended up showcasing your incompetence, thus ending in an apology from you. He is rightly skeptical by your current accusations. So is nearly everyone else.


Now: Questions that have not been asked in either thread. Your profile says you have been on this board for about 2-3 years and you have 100+/- posts. A quick looksie at your posts doesn't show any posts indicating high level of technical knowledge or undertakings ( https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generati...-drive-998457/ ) Since you started by telling everyone how much experience you have with rotaries, no one has asked you the very basic questions below. You may be a guy who just lurks, works and doesn't post, so if these questions make your *** hurt, sorry.

Was that your reputable shop that set it up that way, or your own work? Your previous thread ( https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generati...w-off-1016030/ ) says in the first post that the turbo boosts to stock levels, but you blamed the seller for a junk turbo since it puked oil. That thread ended with you acknowledging an installation/set up problem. Who is to know that your set-up doesn't still have flaws?

Have you even TESTED for a boost leak, removed the turbo and checked the exhaust gaskets, completely blocked off the ebay knock off bov etc? Some pretty expert guys on here have advised that the most likely problem is a preturbo exhaust leak or a bov leak-based on your picture of the turbo you have and the video you posted.

Get serious with diagnosing the problem.

Good luck.
