  7. My 34 gtt has bilsteins coilovers which are hieght adj. they are great and car handles great, however i drive the car over bumpy roads daily and i feel like im gonna start pissing blood soon.. So what is the cheaper option, to get my suspension revalved so rebound is not so high, may also need new springs, OR should i buy a set of dc coilovers and sell the bilsteins? PS. i take the car to the track about 4 times a year. could i get away with just getting some king springs with lower rate or is it still gonna be too stiff. It is believed that the bilstiens are the factory option GTR thanks for advice

  11. for anyone interested just updating my progress. Look at the videos i uploaded aswell. Anyway i took off the sump the oil pickup looks new. i flushed the engine with wurths engine flush prior for ten mins to remove any gunk. engine looks really clean cleaned out the sump and the pickup. obviuosly when i put everything back together the ticking is still there. so i have eliminated one possible problem. I guess ill have to leave it for someone to open up the engine now i can not think of anything else. However i just have a hunch that its not something inside the engine. thanks for the guys that helped out on this issue cheers.
  12. you guys probably getting drained by this already, i did another test. from dead cold start car made the ticking straight out. Then turned car off ofter it was hot, turned on NO TICKING WTF, there was this faint inconsistent, sound that didnt increase (it sounded quite normal engine sound), then i hoped in car, gave it some revs to 2k then to 3k no sound?? then i went to 4k, backed off and INSTANTLY the sound was there. ALSO no bubbles in oill at cold but once hot bubbles were on dip stick and oil cap, i have photos and footage, also posting the oil sump dent, doesnt look that bad??
  13. hey i took it to racepace and they looked at it and couldnt 100% figure air bubbles without putting it on hoist but they noticed bubbles on dipstick and oil cap, there IS oil on the oil cap.
  14. any idea where to get an oil pickup, if they are cheap i might get one before i remove sump.
  15. ive got a hoist on friday or saturday so im gonna give it a shot removing the sump, the thing that concerns me the most is how it is not there when i start up but after say 1min it is there?? like someone switched it on? Not the VVT is it? oh and if you dont mind coul someone (maybe trent) just give me some ideas of what to do/look out for when removing the sump, i will have two ppl that kinda know there way around an engine bay but more info the better in this situation.

  17. no worries fair enough, i have posted a video on you tube that shows my oil lines and the ticking sound, any help appreciated
  18. Anyone know where I can get a sump gasket for gtt like today?
  19. i will sell the rims for $350 without tyres if anyone is interested?
  20. hi james , thanks for that info but cooler has been installed by a very trusted mechanic, specialises in track cars so im hoping he considered this. Also my oil level is fine and oil pressure in the block is fine so i dont think it would be due to lack of oil which still does not explain the bubbles in the oil. But i agree the less driven the better and im taking it in tommorow to attach a pressure gauge to the head and check oil pressure in the head, if that is low then we will check oil pickup.
