A guy I know put some random ball bearing turbo on his 1JZ

The center section cracked and the water in hose leaked into the oil out hose

=

Oil pan full of antifreeze, and burnt crank bearings

man, i dont hear too much about center sections cracking. ive seen a lot more compressor housings crack, and cracked turbine housings are common place. but that sucks

I dunno

Kinda unfortunate, but it sems nothing this guy does seems to work out in his favour

2 weeks before the turbo incident, he tried a drag attempt in front of of 5,000 ppl with the hood unlatched.

Needless to say, that was not very beneficial.
