  2. Oh sweet thanks heaps

    Just called the head guy $71.50 for the pressure test. Also need to replace the oil cooler on the side of the oil filter housing just to be safe aswell as exhaust cam cause some idiot snapped the key for the CAS. ???‍♂️ Lol.

    I was also thinking of rebuilding the turbos while they are off could you recommend a good company to get the kit from?

    Thanks heaps for the help man..

    Really need to disassemble head from block, inspect head gasket carefully between all water and oil gallery sealing surfaces, if ok, take head to be pressure tested. Sorry for your troubles mate, its always a bastard when this sort of thing happens after a rebuild

    Head is off now I’ll have to wait till next week when my head guy comes back lol. He’s gonna love me he hated down the head the first time ??

    The most common failure of MLS head gaskets is poor surface preparation. MLS gaskets cannot conform to surface irregularities outside of their stated specification which is usually 20-30 RA (Roughness Average). I personally don't use them, My 30/25 has a genuine RB26 gasket and never had a problem.

    Thanks heaps I have found someone selling a new genuine head gasket might grab it. 

  5. Hi Guys

    I have a series 1 r33gtr. The original problem was a valve guides broke and went ontop of a piston so while I had the motor out I replaced main bearings rings freshened up pistons replaced all gaskets replaced oil and water pump, I had the head rebuilt with stronger springs installed. Now I have reassembled the engine and installed it again but for some reason I have lost all boost (turbos spool up as usual) and also noticed that I have lost water from the radiator. I have checked all water lines and no mixture but when I removed the oil it was milky and found my water. It's not mixing in the water lines tho. Could anybody point me in the right direction please..

    Thanks in advance..
