Hey,

So, I'm new to the scene of Skylines and have just recently bought my first skyline (R33 GTST Series 2). Took it over the pits...and let's just say the repair work is going to cost more then the actual price of the skyline, but none the less, I accept the project.

I know nothing about Skylines, let alone cars in general. I am learning from a few mates and will be browsing the forums to get my "know-how" in tune. First time driving a turbo and I can safely say that I had a massive smile all the way home (2.5 hours) from picking it up.

It's Pearl Orange (I believe) and illegally loud haha. The original plans was for the car just to be a run around car for work but given the circumstances (damage chassis) it looks to be a project car, but nonetheless I'm looking forward to learning more about these fascinating cars.

I do admit, (If I dare) that I am a Holden man (Not bogan) but I do respect Nissan's and the power they can produce.

Again, I look forward to learning about these type of cars and I'm sure the Bank is going to love my interest rates.

Here are some Carsales pictures:

      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

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
