Ive been thinking of doing a rebuild latelly and I need some info from someone that has done it.How much does a rebuild kit for a J-Spec TII cost?Where is the best and cheapest place that you know of to go about getting a rebuild kit and what does the kit include?Thanks for your help in advance.Also what tools will I need is there any certain special tools for the rebuild?

 

This is the million dollar question.

This stuff all cost so much.

Anyone got a hook-up?

What's up. Don't be holding out if you do.

Hook a brother up man.

Out here in NZ, a s5 TII rebuild kit runs about the equivalent of $1000USD. That includes gasket kit, all hard seals and springs including the oil seal carriers, and new oil pump chain.

arent new rotors included also

 

You gotta be kidding...if it did that's one helluva deal!

 

lmfao...NO.



Rotors aren't cheap...housings aren't cheap. The rebuild kit that most of talk about are just GASKETS or SEALS...not anything large and metallic i.e. rotors...lmfao

 

I am presently preparing to do a rebuild on my TII and just bought a gasket kit for the motor today at the dealer, cost me $148.00 and this was a deal because it retails for about 180.00 - 190.00.

I usually buy the non-turbo gasket kit to do my rebuilds as the only other gaskets that make up the TII gasket kit are the intake manifold to engine block gasket, UIM gasket and the exhaust manifold gasket and don't justify the 250.00-300.00 asking price.

Basically are the rest of the gaskets are the same and most of the gaskets in the kit you don't use anyway.



$8500.00-1,000.00 is what a complete seal kit costs and this comes with all the gaskets, springs, seals, and o-rings but no rotors, or no rotor housings. Sorry

 

Ok why exactly do you need a rebuild? Is it blowing smoke out the tail pipes? No power? what?

 

Look on Ebay in the Atkins store. They sell the kits for less then $300.

Ya, but that's just gaskets.

No seals or anythingelse
