I'm assuming you meant "OMP linkage came off"?

That sucks. Buy a reman and the car can be running in a matter of days.

That motor had like 180-190K miles on it IIRC.

and hurry up with it cath, cuz i cant be the only fc at the gymkhanas and drift days! if you need help or some one to hand you tools just send me a PM.

do you think your going to do a rebuild or j-spec/reman? if you go for the rebuild expect to pay alot more then you'd think cuz im sure once you get into it ther will be alot of stuff needing to be replaced, at least that what ended up happening on mine and i was just doing a rebuild cuz my oil control rings wher failing but it turned out cost like 3k for parts and $500 for labor "i got a hook up "

GOOD LUCK!

FYI, that turbo was rebuilt when I put it on the car in 2001. It also had 1-2 new injectors, the rest were rebuilt.
