Hey what's going on.

Currently stuck on this Borg Warner s363 rebuild, for my 1jz sc300.

Pictures of the progress:



I have the snap-ring removed for one the bearing, here...but I just don't know how to take apart the rest. Everything seems solid.



Thanks

Remove the hotside, you should have done that first.
Remove turbine wheel
There will be another c-clip on the turbine side.
There are 2.5 million how to rebuild turbo videos on youtube.

Yeah I'm trying to just, "take the hot side off". I believe that was pretty giving, in my pics.
And I saw videos, but I wanted to stick with manufacturers. I didn't know every turbo has the exact same internals.

put the cold side back on, that will make removing the hotside 10000 times easier. You may need to heat it up and/or soak in pb blaster. I took a mallet to my holsets hotside after soaking in blaster and it took a good beating before separating. And for the most part all the turbos are the same in parts, just varying sizes etc

Alright, thanks man.
I did put quite a bit of PB blaster on it before calling it a night, last night.
I figured that may've been the next step, I just wasn't sure about it needing to be knocked off. I was worried about it unexpectingly falling/splitting apart and possibly damaging the hot side turbine wheel

But thanks again.

No problem boss, I commend you for undertaking the task yourself, these things are precision parts but they are fairly simple mechanically speaking. Use a quality rebuild kit and make sure the parts going in look like the parts coming out, smaller holes and the like are usually indication of a generic low quality kit. Have the turbo balanced when you're finished especially if you didn't mark the compressor nut/changed components etc.

Yeah I see on forums that it isn't very hard to do...and figuring I used to work on my 300zxtt, I'd have enough patience for anything else.
But going back to your first response...you can putting the cold side back on would make it much easier. In what way would this benefit me, exactly?

I'm currently/continuing soaking it with PB blaster and hitting it with a soft-faced hammer. Only crappy thing is that in holding it with one hand while doing this, and I know I'm absorbing some of the blow by doing so.

I may take my torch out, but it's an acetelyne gas with a turbo torch...I just don't want to overheat something..

Putting the compressor cover back on will benefit your exact situation you described. It will make it easier to brace/hold while you work the exhaust side. Honestly i'd snug the compressor wheel back on and the compressor cover. Wailing away on the exhaust housing the way it is now is begging to snap the shaft

Okay thanks again for taking the time to respond.

I ended up just overnighting a brand new turbo. I'll rebuild this one, (or continue trying), and keep it as a spare or just sell it.
