I hope to attend a few of these cruises. My job kind of restricts me from having fun on the weekend:( .

The car is in very good condition and is soooo quiet, i can't believe that under the hood is 2.6 Litres of TT goodness. It out handles and destroys anything that my wrx could do. Unbelievable, i love it!:P

Another who saw the light? WRX to GTR.

The hardest thing I found was adjusting to the GTR's 4WD characteristics. And what really wowed me is how communicative the chassis is to the WRX.

Have fun with it hey. ;)

Exactly, the whole car moves with the steering, no body roll, just point and put the foot down. You can get the R to swing it's tail out coming out of tight corners (like arrowz, almost caught me out:) ), but i feel more secure taking a corner at 120km/h in the GT-R then the wrx taking it at 100. Some great days ahead me thinks:) .

      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
