Hicks Posted May 23, 2004 Author Share Posted May 23, 2004 I was so happy. Car was finally finished, just made 370 hp at the wheels. Then less than 15 minutes later, sittin at a roundabout waitin for cars and the car just turned off. Turns out in that split second the timing belt has slipped off and the engine has munched itself! F#CK F#CK F#CK!!!! I'll speak to them tomorrow, but they better be prepared, cause I am F#ckin pissed right off!! Idiots! Unbelievable!! I am so sick off this shit!!!

RBVS Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 man that sucks. after my turbo blew on that crusie, i got same turbs as you from performance. I took head off to clean out then placed back together started it up and there was a nock. Apparently a big end bearing. so engine cam out, no money for a build right now so, got out of it a cheap way and brought a engine with not turbo, sump and other bits and peaces and am changing parts over. good result what boost were you running?
