Welcome.

From the information previously stated here:

atmo bov should not pass,

ebc should not pass (remove the inside controller and likely to get through)

Timers should pass, might depand on how they are set up.

But I keep mine fairly stock, so haven't needed to do much with complying mods.

nice work, is this the one owned by the older guy?

Thought you were anti-ebc haha. Lucky you bought this one and didn't wait for mine, going to be another 2 weeks before my mate can do the work

[Greekos]

i was anti ebc but the previous owner went over board with support mods, and now for the road worthy

[stewari]

bov wont pass, id risk trying to get it passed with the boost controller, and who owned the car before you?

take it easy stuart

Sounds like head gasket alright

[Greekos]

if its the head gasket and not a cracked head how much will i be looking at

[stewari]

where abouts do you live, if its in belconnon ill come and have a look for you! if its the nhead gasket mightnt be to bad but there normally is a reason that the gasket went, which is what you have to worry about , make shaw its not running to much boost. good luck , stuart

[Greekos]

thats alright im in the south side of Canberra, one of out family friends had a look and say it the head gasket for sure

[stewari]

no good was it like it when you baught it, and was it an old guy you got it off? and post up some more pics

stuart

the previous was sort of old and looked genuine as he bought an 34, i didn't check the radiator as the car went well, and had the correct support mods but the workshop that installed the engine were only able to give a safe tune to the car. the problem is the radiator has A LOT of black oil and i have lost some oil from the engine when i checked this afternoon.

Glad to see you got it all sorted out - and both of our minds are at rest.

Enjoy your new car man! and like I said when I sold it to you - get some new tyres!!!!! i don't want to see a picture of the car in a newspaper twisted around a tree... be safe, take it to a skidpan and learn the feel and responsiveness and you'll have some fun

cheers matey..

hey again!

similar to my last post, i was at Trojan today and saw the old beast sitting there... i had a look at the tyres and my goodness - well done on some good tyres... they looked great and would hold a fair amount of traction down..

you'll have to take me for a spin in it some time - would love to see how much power she puts out in a drive now that she has some good traction... grats
