so im looking to do a 60 trim upgrade and rebuild for kit for my ct-26 and my mechanic here in town could do it for me. ive looked around a bunch of places looking for someone whole is selling the compressor wheel and rebuld kits and such. does anyone know were i could find the stuff i need to...
so during the course of my MHG job i ran into the point where i was ready to fire the car but had no oil filter and it was very late at night. i happen to have a new oil filter for my old 89 240sx so i thought i would try on it on a long shot. turns out it went right on there!!! later in...
so i went to a local car show this weekend which was 99% american classics. a bunch of peopel had some booths set up selling there stuff. and from a good distance away i spotted some MK4 rims in good condition. pick em up for $100 cash.
its lives again, i fired it up on thursday with minor problems and finished up all the problems on sat.
now she is running like a champ and not smoking or miss firing at all!!!!
+1 for the titan MHG, i would call it forgiving.
yeah i havn't read over any of the arp stuff you so i guess i was kinda speeking out of line there. lol. i feel like an idiot =)
but yeah ill do that, thanks for saying something.
well since its not that thick of a gasket and i wont be running THAT much boost. i was think somewhere between 78 ft-lbs and 90 ft-lbs.
if you guys have any suggestions on it please..let me know
update!!
head back from shop and lookin good =)
price list.
head: cleaned and deck .020" - $35
titan 1.4mm gasket- 120
arp's-120
gasket set -150
+1 for HPF, they got it here fast!!
not so nasty anymore.
build for boost!!
thats it for now. im trying to have it...
lack of oil changes
the motor it a JDM motor and who ever was driving it didn't seem to take care of it. so thats another reason you should stay away from JDM motors...
so the head is at the machine shop and now its cleaning time. yeah lots of fun!!!...maybe..
anywho thought i would paint up the valve covers nice and pretty..=)
its looks like trash but the paint is dry just gotta blow it off.
and again..
update.
head will be ready for the machine shop tommorrow. =)
im kinda glad this HG blew, now i can get rid of all the sludge in my motor :icon_conf
anywho...pics.
the head....
being organized...
thanks for the advice on the cometic, and yes i do realize what is involvled.
as for the oil it doesn't look like it. just another reason to not buy jdm motors unless you rebuild them. :nono:
ok so i just finish the jdm motor install and drove it for two days with no problems and then what do you know blown HG. so im replacing the HG with a metal one. i havn't pick out a head gasket yet so if you guys have any imput on it let me know. i know im going to head studs and every thing...
sorry about the big sig!!!!! i didn't think it was going to be that big. and thats not the car i am showing....look a little above it an dyou will see my 88 wing less
