Check it out. 6 from 12 studs snapped under ring spanner back and forth careful arm pressure.centre popped and easy outed all fully drilled, tapped and ready for new genuine nissan studs washers and nuts. The manifold was so warped it was ridiculous. It's in being Re-faced now. Butter bolt studs and rattled up I reckon. Madness.

Labour of love, engine rebuild and some light fabrication to fit a turbo to it [emoji48] 8.50s here we come 
You're a animal. [emoji882] top of the line German to drag 2 wheel 4 wheel jap and everything in-between. Big Jobs. I've been stuck inside the belly of the beast. Madness. Slowly but slowly. Pulled the last poxy bolt with 3x extensions and a uni joint on the rattle gun that was hidden away drilled and tapped into a I beam across the chassis rail.

    • 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.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • 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
