I just got a letter from the council (after owning my car 8 months) telling me that there is no problem my drive. What a laugh! Being an Italian I am going to do the best concreting job I can :) I don't know if it is illegal, I don't care! I tried to do the right thing and the council has fcuked me...

Had a similar issue to NA_R33, only this happened when someone tried to steal the car from the front of a club!!!

Got the car back, only after being dragged 400+m down the road at about 90 Km/h.... definatley not the best time i've had in the 33!

insurance, wouldn't be worth claiming since i got the keys out of the ignition while the car was going!!!

put in a claim for damages with the police, they sure no worries i'll put it through with the DUI, theft, driving in a manner dangerous to the public charges!!!!

Didn't hear from them again!!!

typical, will take your money, but them chasing it for you... good luck!

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      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.

      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
