Seems your getting there now.

What valves and springs did you use?

My little 25 finally died after a year of abuse at 400kw. It had tomei cams and tomei pistons. The rest was totally stock other than all the bolt on parts.

It burnt the side of the piston in number 6 and pinched the ring. The bore is still like brand new.

I have also ordered a C4 from Fred. Cant wait to get that in behind my new engine.

Well now that you have a gasket...

You could at least bolt the head on and show us photos :P

Will do. Leigh from Extreme Turbo Manifolds called me to let me know that the new manifold and rear housing are back from getting coated so I'll put it all together and take some pics soon :)

Standard valves, Tomei springs. You will absolutely love the box from Fred, mate. You're about to have bags of fun. :P

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
