i have slept soo fking long.

oh well... workwork!~

[Smity42]

I got a little bit drunk

Pulled a cam cover off, can't see any shims in there so it may not be a NEO head, which would mean I have been ripped off

Didnt see anything obviously wrong, and then spotted the stainless exhaust manifold was snapped almost in half. That could account for the funny noise, lack of power and boost, but not the low compression. But I don't have a lot of faith in my compression guage so yeah...

So the plan is to put it back together with a factory manifold and see how it goes. If its still f**ked, I'll take it somewhere for a compression test and leakdown test to work out whats wrong. But hopefully it wont come to that.

Need a new exh gasket and some other misc stuff though, but will hopefully be going back together next weekend. Oh, does anyway know where I can get the right sized copper washers for the banjo bolts? Super cheap/rapeco etc only have imperial ones.

Gonna be spitting chips if this head isn't a NEO one but.

[astrotristan]

i too will be spitting chips!

that is fcuking shit martin!

called up just cars today - cant get my quotes inspected til tuesday next week..

I'd lend you my backup, but I am using it ATM

Looks like it is definitely not a NEO head . http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ea...ad-t269422.html

Wrong number on the side of the head, wrong coil pack mounts. Shoulda researched this s**t more before buying it I suppose.

On the bright side, hopefully it will be all good when back together with factory exhaust manifold now. But the low compression is still a bit of a worry - hopefully its my guage.

[Redsuns88]

thats shit mate..

SR all the way!

heard its a common problems with RB's

[astrotristan]

yeeh thats gay dude - hopefully it is just the guage and can be sorted out easily

*fingers crossed

No SR. SRs fail almost as much as this exhaust manifold

Too bad the shit bolted to the SR failed more than Johnny McFail at Fail Highschool in Failsville.

I made it out of the spit alive yesterday! I dont think I'll wanna go there again... that place its like a 1 way ticket to defects.

Anyway, anyone knows if the TE37 comes with dish? I saw 1 yesterday thats 19" x 10.5" +22 with massive dish... never seen it before (particularly for funky).

Any farewell car wash for monkey these few days before he gets on the van?
