Hi All,

I wouldn't say I'm new to SAU or the Skyline scene, but I have just moved to Canberra from Sydney & before that Cairns.

You might see me driving around the ACT in my daily driver, a R32 GTS4;

But, more interestingly, I've brought down my R34 from Brisbane to finish...It's sporting a VQ30DET + T engine conversion, and is being built by myself (with the help of anyone who is willing) in my garage, whilst closely talking to engineers to ensure everything is legal and up to scratch. (Lots of work is outsourced to ensure safety and legality)

So if anybody has any ideas, suggestions, hints etc etc please dont hesitate to drop me a line via PM or email.

I'm really looking for a fabricator to assist with finishing off some welding etc, and a panel beater to spray the engine bay finally!

Cheers,

Dallas.

      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
