If it were that bad I would take the engine out and rebuild it all properly because I doubt they did a proper job before if the turbo is failing. You say new engine rebuild I say it'll throw a bearing or pop a gasket as soon as you floor it. It's probably had such a thrashing all its life they all do and they just fall to bits

hi im replacing the turbo for now , it's failed a m.o.t because it of the amount of smoke comming out the engine and exhaust , iv been told it either need's a new engine block or it's turbo's , iv removed the turbo and it.s oily , it should be powdery , so on that basis i think it's turbo's , The engine as been mostly rebuilt by the previous owner but he gave up , i have reciept's for work he's done , i dont know why he would build a duff engine , so im keeping the original engine until

Why did previous owner give up? I'd quite like an Impreza but stuff like this plus fuel costs puts me off.

@ rah1 - 4.04.14 - 12:19pm Why did previous owner give up? I'd quite like an Impreza but stuff like this plus fuel costs puts me off. not sure , he stripped car out fully, he rebuilt engine , he modded engine up , he removed back seats applyed stainless steel floor , he removed front seats put in two riccaro's plus harnesses which he bolted to the steel in the back , put in a sport's steering wheel etc , then quit, i bought it as a shell with all the part's, i presumed i just had to rebuild , i was wrong , i think he gave up because of the earth problem , it had alternator prob's also , now turbo probs , i wouldnt of bough |
