HKS FC3S,
aside from DIYMAN's turbo failure with the T04R, how many other turbo nut failures have you seen with HKS turbo kits? I have a friend who bought a brand new T04R kit from HKS (trust me it's new) and the exact same thing happened to his turbo within a few thousand miles.

HKSfc, im sorry you didn't see this thread sooner, it may have saved you some trouble. DIYMAN aka devilfc posted these pics a while ago on a fc sight. It's obvious the turbo is NOT new when he is installing it into his car.

And yes this would come out of my very own mouth, an employee at HKS, if it ever happend to me. And what? He decided to get a T04Z instead? Spend even more money on a HKS turbo, the same company that has caused him so much time and grief? And he is going to put it on? HAHAHAHA. It just does not make sense to me.
I helped him on the phone as much as I could. I have to follow a set rule of policy because I am an employee. Warranty, returns, etc., there are strict rules in which I have to follow. The turbo was out of warranty so I gave him recommendations on some really good turbo rebuild shops. What's wrong with that? I tried to help this guy as much as possible and I gave him the benefit of the doubt. I helped him get the turbo cheap.
DIYMAN25. All I want is an apology from you that you lied to me, XS, SP and everyone else on this forum and other forums you have posted on. You got what you want. If you were a decent guy you would come clean. You cannot deny that you did not lie, there is too much evidence and witnessed to what happened..
