Test For Coolant System Additives To Stop Leaks

[Nismo 3.2ish]

Could do, do not know. I will probably have the motor out by the look of things and will see what can be done at the same time ???

Who is doing the work?

Why the cam change?

Were they dialled in extensively last tune?

Why not just chuck some chemiweld in?

If you're happy with everything else then why not just resolve the head gasket issue?

Jez will be doing the work.

Cams were dialled for a more even result, top and bottom

I believe Chemiweld had already been used, but that is only a guess

If I did change the CR . probably go 9:1

But I will not make any decision until it is pulled down and the problem found and go from there once I find out the initial problem

Who said it was a head gasket, hope you are right, I tend to always think the worse and anything less is always a better outcome

[Hadouken]

So is it fixed yet?

[Ben C34]

95 pages to go.

Not going to say anything until the problem is found and fixed, I will go from there but while the car is in the shop might do a couple of tweaks.

Car goes in 12th of next month

I will not bore you blokes until I have some results and poke the new Dyno Graph up

[Nismo 3.2ish]

That was a huge edit! haha

sure did need editing , good job, lol

[Trex]

how'd you go peter?

[Nismo 3.2ish]

Not looking good, motor is out and about a 90% chance the block is farked

[Duncan]

hmm I was just thinking about this thread the other day.

cracked block would be a bad outcome, but it doesn't really reflect on any shop involved in the build, its more just bad luck. You were pushing a mile of power through a standard wall block and it's not unheard of.

I am amazed sometimes on this thread.

At first the water lose was on a low boost run in tune and limited to 5000rpm, this was in March this year.

This water situation started from the first day of the build, it was not noticeable at first as I was checking the radiator, cold in the mornings and not the overflow, once the overflow emptied then it was noticeable from the radiator. I have always checked from the radiator so I knew exactly how much water was being used, I used a measuring cup.

The amount used on different driving situations was and is the same from day one as it was when we found the water in the oil.

Yet the oil still looked clean on the stick , not as you would expect ?

[Hadouken]

Going to court again then?

[Nismo 3.2ish]

My priority is getting my car fixed !

[Nismo 3.2ish]

Going to court again then?

What do you mean "again"?

[Hadouken]

Edward lee now crd?

If I am not mistaken they said they tak no responsibility for any issues after Jez touched it. Therefor the only way you will have a chance at getting them to fork up for the new repairs is by taking them to court.

Or am I mistaken

[Nismo 3.2ish]

I took them to NCAT, a tribunal were you can negotiate and come to a mutual agreement, I sat at home on the phone during this procedure. he was just a smart arse and told me to fark off, I didn't!

This situation is early days and the motor has to be checked , I am sure it can be worked out, until then it is just another bump in the road.

Some blokes should put themselves in the other persons shoes before posting, think about what you would do in the same situation , roll over like a dog , yeah sure ?
