    Engine has had the 100ks service done 7 months ago, not sure on exact K's of motor. Was told it would be around 110,000ks now.

    I have quite a receipts for the work done, including the head gasket work, 100ks service, tune and dyno runs plus a whole heap from replacment parts. ( headlights, taillights, interior peices etc )

    The car is not perfect,

    Was resprayed back in 07 in Passion Red, still looks great. Has a few little scratches here and there but nothing to serious.

    The steering has a bit of a shutter when coming to full lock.

    Diff and Tailshaft starting to make a slight noise, havent really looked into it yet.

    There is also a small hole right in the top of the fuel tank, previous owner said he tryed to mount his amp through it or something, there is a screw in there from him, seems to keep pretty much most of it in there.

    Price is 9000 Neg

    Maybe interested in swaps for a R32 4 door, S1 S14 or something of interest.

    Was having a sus on the Kudosmotorsport site, just wondering if anyone can recommend getting any others parts while im doing my headgasket.

    http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/ku...s={13}137{14}48

    1 x 100,000km Service Kit, Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25-t (RB25DET)

    1 x Gasket Maker (Silicon), Permatex, Water Pump & Thermostat

    1 x Gasket Set, VRS, Genuine Nissan RB25DE & RB25DET (Ex Neo 6)

    The items im thinking in the shopping cart should do the trick?

    Sorry for the noob questions, new to rbs and headwork.

    Cheers for everyones advice

    Don't forget guys that if you if you are going to run metal head gaskets you will need to prep both the head and block mating surfaces to the correct finish. If you don't then there is a fair chance that they will leak.

    Now you have to ask yourself how you are going to prep the block with the pistons in place.

    Also don't forget that if you are going to change to ARP studs then you will need to torque plate hone the bores as you will be using greater torque settings and the bore will be more deformed. This is the same story for main studs in that you will need to line bore the mains.

    So i guess the moral of the story is that if you are going to do a rebuild it a perfect opportunity to change to MLS head gasket and ARP studs, but other than with a rebuild it's not the ideal time to change.

    So im better of just going a standard genuine headgasket then?

    Also were is the best place to order parts, im changing headgasket and sending head of to be checked out. Also doing a 100ks service while its off the road.

    What place to you guys order parts from?

    Cheers for everyones help.

    Just do it, for a few dollars now, you won't regret it later. I'm doing mine soon, including a port/polish on the head and I'll be going the same route (Metal HG and ARP head studs)

    yeah i have to have my head inspected for cracks and shit, so also thinking a port and polish.

    Its actually in a VL for now haha

    depends on the application? Making enough power to warrant a steel head hasket and stronger bolts?

    just a daily, will see a few drift days aswell.

    Ive got a dyno sheet showing 200kw at around 11psi
