hey new to the forum names ali ,

was into the German scene but ended up trading my turbocharged bmw for a 92 skyline r32 gtr 86k on the engine is what i was told

didn't pay much attention when trading which i should of later found out the oil was milky well took the head off and a new headgasket was installed also went back to a factory twin turbo set-up as the single turbo set-up was sloppy , finally finished a custom 3" turbo back and i started the car to hear this knock , looked around couple forums asked a couple people im getting 2 answers , it sound like the top end and some are saying it is the bottom end let me know your thoughts on the situation at this point im looking at rebuilding the engine

Don't run it any more. Pull the engine out strip it down and measure the bores and crank to help you decide between rings and bearings or a $10k rebuild or anywhere in between.
