Finally fired her up...

And the rear turbo starts spewing oil all over my engine bay.
I'm so sick of this thing....ugh.

Goo, I'm sorry man.

Have you replaced the VSS??

My rear did the same thing, I just needed to replace that little $3 valve.

It was the feed line. I don't know why, but until I put a little washer between the line and the turbo (instead of the line and the bolt) it was leaking everywhere. Threw that washer on there and not a drop.
Soooooo relieved.

Until it heated up, now its leaking again.
i think im going to tear my hair out

Well. I finally got it. Previous owner had engine rebuilt, and I guess they decided to leave one of the bolts that hold on the oil pump. So I replaced it today, went for a 'spirited' drive, and sure enough. Not a fucking drop.

Yes, there are supposed to be two washers on banjo fittings like that. They can't seal with just one side.

Finally figured out my brake problem. They had been dragging and heating up (bad) to the point where they'd lock up. So I haven't been able to drive it...well, today I said enough is enough, and watched the pistons retract into the caliper when I pressed on the brake...sure enough, one of them had a gash keeping it from retracting all the way... 2 minutes with a dremel tool later, she was good as new.
Now I'm just waiting on my new rear turbo, then I can finally start installing all of the mods I've collected while waiting to fix this basic shit.
