You have the rotor on the wrong side

Yep - unless they're not directional.

Judging by the picture I'd say they were directional.

VT onwards HSV had directional grooves like that, but they only went the right direction on one side...

I dunno I just put them in generally if there directional they say left n right? These didn't the other side is the exact same

Its pretty clear how the directional slots work. The rotor goes around with the brake pads clamped, and if there the other way around from the picture it forces hot brake gasses, dust etc up, out and away from the brakes!

indeed, you'd want to hope your oil pressure had been good after the engine was fucked...
i killed a turbo after i spun a bearing and had no oil pressure.

Turbos mint just saying
Doesn't matter anymore anyways
Gonna pull my spare engine out when I'm back at work n start building it will be booked in for dyno before its driven with new engine
I didn't want your help either mate just saying
I don't care what you all think I drive my car how I want n I expect to blow shit up as when I do blow shit up that means I can rebuild it and make it stronger its just my toy n **** its fun!
I can't wait to pull my engine out get new 1 in and a tune then c what it can do

Re: DOMN8N'S EL ghia

Also oil pressure on engine is low but measured the flow rate of feed line j wouldn't drive it if it was gonna blow turbo as it was just rebuilt at mtq

There's a difference between flow and pressure. If there is not enough pressure the bearing won't support the shaft with oil

Haha so many judgemental people on here I don't c the point of this forum you guys are no help n just put ya 2 cents in when its not needed!
Yes my Grammar sucks don't need to point it out if I could spell all write better I would I think it's quite low of people to point that out as I could have a disability etc!
Now I'm getting called dickhead Wtf
If this is what this forum is about I'm more then happy to remove myself from it
Like I have said 1 million times I'm not tunning it till its got the new engine n to prove you all wrong my car n setup apart from diff has had no issues! So stop posting shit n saying my turbos probs fucked etc
Also learn ya basics about pressure n flow misk
More flow is more pressure
Yes I understand what you all probs think of me my post are shitty n I would think what a wanker aswell but hay I've spent alot of time money n pride into my car n I'm happy with how it is
Ill do you all a favour and not post on here again all take it to car shows with boosted falcons all attend anything as why would I want to hang around judgemental people who clearly no it all
I came on this page to learn shit and gather info from u all I didn't want to be judged all put down
Before i Go It's a project and ill get it right I'n the end that's all that matters to me!

alright mate, if you think getting oil flow where the oil is taking the path of least resistance is the same as having flow that will sustain under pressure then good on you.

no one has been as bad as you think they are. how nice do you expect people to be to someone that is a cock to an entire forum?
if you didn't need help or care what we think why did you come here?

Re: DOMN8N'S EL ghia

It's just like fuel pressure and flow.
Car won't start if there is no pressure. Could have plenty of flow from the pump. But at the end of the day if the reg is fucked and there is no pressure the car will be as useful as shit.

The same as oil. Plenty of flow doesn't mean good pressure where it counts. Being a mechanic I thought it would have been something covered in trade school.


I'm sorry if you think everyone here is treating you like an illiterate noob. But it's hard to argue with when people give you their experiences with things and you just throw it back at them.

How many cars have you turboed? Tuned? Sustained?

Most of the guys on this forum have had so much more experience in this field. They may not be all mechanics but they sure as he'll know what their talking about.

Shit happens. Either move on past it or let yourself drown in it.
Choices.

What I was meaning for my oil to flow threw the feed line it would need pressure right? It wouldn't flow if there was no pressure?
I said I checked the flow rate of the oil feed if it never had enough pressure I wouldn't have had the right amount of flow so what misk was saying was just because I have flow doesn't mean I have pressure but if my flow was more then enough like it is that would mean I have enough pressure so therefore my turbo is safe n won't blow up
Also misk daddy doesn't fix my mistakes is there really any need for them type of comments?
Your a keyboard warrior, I don't want to battle you!
Also snipez I've turbocharged nothing I just do general servicing on ya average cars but that's why I started this project I wanted to learn more n have a fast car at the same time.
which this forum has helped me learn heaps of stuff and I appreciate the comments n help I have gotten, but its the people who continually say tune it blah,blah.
I'm not tunning it until my new engine end of story! Then I get comments from smart arses saying you can lead a horse to water but the horse doesn't drink? There just smart arses but at the end of the day I let it get to me for some reason, but ae I'm over it I'm happy with how everything's going ATM so that's the main thing so **** da haters,keyboard warriors and smartarses

So, what has more pressure in this situation: Pouring a litre of water down a straw, or poring a litre of water down a drain pipe? Pressure and flow are two very different things.

The funny part about it is if you tuned it you wouldn't have to replace the engine.

Bets on fits new engine and pops that too.

Dude, I don't understand what you're saying. One the one hand you're saying nobody offers advice but on the other you're saying everybody puts their 2 cents in?

There are heaps of people giving you advice, you're choosing not to listen to it. We have seen so many others flog their cars without a tune and have to replace motors unnecessarily, we're trying to stop you making the same mistakes others have.

You might find swapping motors fun but it's still a waste of a motor regardless.

Most people on this forum do try and help others as much as possible, because at the end of the day we all want to see reliable boosted falcons making good numbers on the dyno and running good times at the strip.

Also, pressure and flow are different but related - pressure is a measure of resistance to flow.

Yeah true I understand that your all trying to help and I do appreciate it
I guess I'm just loosing the plot I've been off work for almost 9weeks now,with a Brocken hand and I've had to live of my savings.
I guess having no money and no brains makes you act stupid haha
The car untuned is running okay but and since fmu my engine bay temps have dropped considerably so I just felt no need to tune it, until I no my situation/financial standings.
I love my car and it will be sorted out soon.
hopefully I'm back at work on the 4th of next month so shit will get done and will get done right.
if I have any promblems I'm sure ill be on hear looking/asking for help
Also with the pressure flow situation I no there different
I checked the flow rate of feed because at the end of the day if I have the correct amount of flow I would have the correct amount of pressure? That's how I sore it anyways
If I didn't have enough flow then there would've been not enough pressure
That's why I said misk was wrong as that's how I sore it!
I apologise for my stupidity and not making sence 99% of the time I will try to improve my grammar and I hope in the future when I post on hear u guys will still offer a hand :)
I can't wait to get it done n run it down the strip :)
My n/a did a 14.5 at Calder with a slipping clutch so Im looking forward to compare the 2 cars

The answer is drain pipe lol which is exactly what I was saying more flow = more pressure?
I was checking the flow rate over 15secomds if it didn't flow enough?
it would not have enough pressure there for I have a oil pressure situation all my straw is to restricted!
That's the way I sore it at the time
Atleast I took the time to run a simple test
I could've just gone off my oil pressure gauge,I could've assumed it would be okay but instead I made sure it would be okay :)

Can't go wrong with red, just keep it out of the sun. Don't really understand you stating that you have no money and won't get it tuned until you know how you are financially, then you turn around and buy a daily. Don't mistake me for giving a hoot, I'm just sayin.

Look forward to seeing what you make of your turbo build, always loved the car.
